I spent a week in January crocheting a bunch of mini-motifs. Some of the others I'll share in the coming weeks, but I wanted to share the Lucky Clover Pin first because it is still close to St. Patrick's Day (almost a month late, but I figured that you'd understand!)
I'm
not sure what yarn I'm using, but it is 100% acrylic so Red Heart Super
Savers is my best guess. I chose a size D crochet hook.
I
love that the pattern gives a step by step tutorial! I made a mistake
in round 2 (skipped the slip stitch), which I think made my clover
pucker a bit. I realized this on the last leaf of round 2 so I didn't
feel like going back. Therefore I skipped the Sl sts in the 3rd round,
too.
I chained 10 sts instead of 13 to make the stem because I was running out of yarn. 7 g, 13 yards used with probably about a foot of yarn left. Now that is some good stashbusting!
If
Lucky were a little girl, then I would love to put this lucky clover
onto a headband. But alas, he is my little boy, so maybe I'll put it on
a headband for ME. After all, I am one lucky mama, right?
