Over the last months I've been obsessing - juuuust a bit - over classic, lacy patterns. I love to give them a - hopefully ;-) - contemporary twist. If you are on Instagram you might have seen some of them already.

Oh! Before I forget... Personally I'm really in love with my Jord Wood Watch. If you like this timepiece too, I've got some good news: I've teamed up with the people from Jord to bring you a give-away, yay! Just leave your first name and email address here (click!) for a chance to win a $100 coupon, and ALL other entries will receive a $20 coupon. That what I call a win-win!
(If you scroll all the way down this page you'll also find a button that brings you to the Jord website to see all their models.)

And here's the same crochet pattern, worked in different colours.

I love it by the way when the Airbnb apartment where I'm staying is photogenic. :-)

The original pattern is from a Spanish crochet magazine titled Creaciones de Ganchillo (#12), however, as per usual, I made some modifications along the way. I just like to personalise a pattern. ;-)
For both pieces I've just the eco-friendly cotton DMC Natura. It's an ideal match with this type of work, I think.
That's all I have for now... Thanks so much for your kind visit and I hope to back here soon. Wishing you a lovely and colourful day!
