Hourglass Jacket - Stitch Diva Studios

I've been gone too long! Hope everyone is doing well and that you didn't forget about me. :D

"Hourglass Jacket" is one of my recent projects which I tested and made samples of. I enjoyed broomstick crochet so much, and this one was quick to make!

This pattern can be purchased at Stitch Diva Studios

I think this is the most beautiful broomstick crochet garment design I've ever seen.

I'm making Cecilia Chemise now to give it to someone, and I only have sleeves left to do. :) I rarely feel like making crochet garments, but this is an exception.

  3. Hi Chie:))))

    No we did not forget about you. I've really missed you and I love the top you've been making. I wish my waist was small enough to wear one of those. They are cute!!

  4. Hi Sharon! :)))

    I too wish I was smaller! I love Stitch Diva Studios designs, but I always end up making them for somebody else - mostly for my sister who is very slender!

  5. Lovely. I remember my mother making brown/orange/mustard broomstick lace afghans out of acrylic yarn in the 70s and 80s. It's so fun to do!

    I like the look and drape of this sweater better than any broomstick work I've ever seen.

    Hi

    I'm Louise from South Africa and new to this. Absolutely Adore the Cecilia Chemise pattern. Is there a way that we in SA can get it against a better price because for us it is VERY expensive?
