Tapestry Crochet Angel Fish

Yet again another Saturday has rolled around. How has your week been? I hope it’s only been filled with nice things, including plenty of crochet.

This week I’ve been doing some more work on my current bug bunting project, there are some photos over on my Instagram page if you want to have a peek. I’m totally addicted to tapestry crochet at the moment, so much so that I’m not really doing many other types of crochet. Although I did sneak a little tiny bit of amigurumi making in with these tiny sea creatures.

But that didn’t last too long before I was back to tapestry crochet!

Anyway this weeks tapestry crochet chart is for this blue Angel fish.

I’m so pleased with how he came out. I wanted to make the blues of his body stand out from the background and I think it’s worked.

Just in case you’ve forgotten what the bunting looks like all together, here’s a photo of the finished project.

Have you made any of the squares yet? I’d love to see photos of them if you have.

Here’s the link to this weeks graph.

I hope you enjoy the squares as much as I do.

Don’t forget to leave a comment below or tag me on Instagram @Ditzy.and.Dotty to show me what you’ve made.

Happy Hooking

Tapestry Crochet Jellyfish

This weeks part of the sea creatures bunting is this wiggly Pink jellyfish.

I love the long tendrils just floating about in the water.

As before I’ve used Stylecraft Special DK yarn for this flag, but it would work in any yarn really, just be consistent throughout each of the flags and then it’ll work.

As you can see from the bottom couple of rows on the above photo, my tension started off a little loose and the carried yarn is showing a bit more than usual. If this happens to you try using a smaller hook, or just tightening your stitches a little until you’re happy with the look of your flag.

These are all of the flag, only 3 more patterns for me to add up here and it’ll be ready to join together.

Here’s the file to download

I hope you’re enjoying making these flags, I’d love to see what you’ve made with them, feel free to comment on here or on Instagram, where you can find my account @ditzy.and.dotty and see the new pattern I’m working on at the moment.

Happy Hooking

Tapestry Crochet Puffer Fish

It’s time for the next square in my sea creatures bunting, this time it’s this green puffer fish.

I’ve made him using Stylecraft Special DK as I like the colours it comes in, and think it’s good value for money, but you can choose whichever yarn you have to hand, it’s not so important for this pattern. The only thing changing yarn will alter is the finished size of the flag, and as long as they’re all the same it doesn’t matter too much.

If you’d like a tutorial for tapestry crochet, I’ve written one on the starfish flag, so just hop over to my free patterns page on here and you’ll be able to find it.

I’d really love to see anything you make from my pattern, just so I know I’m not talking to myself 😆 leave a comment below or tag me on Instagram @Ditzy.and.Dotty

Tapestry Crochet Crab

It’s Saturday again so it’s time for the next part of my crochet bunting

This week’s square is this cute brightly coloured crab.

I have just realised that as yet I’ve not mentioned the border I’m using for each of the squares, oops! Apologies for that if you’d noticed 🤦‍♀️

I’ve used a border of double crochet around the edge of the square (US single crochet) and into each corner stitch I’ve just worked [dc, ch1, dc] but obviously you can choose your own border.

The good thing about this border is that it evens out any wiggly edges which I’m prone to.

I love this style of bunting so much I’ve already started on another themed string of tapestry crochet bunting, but that’s a post for another day.

So here’s the graph if you’d like to download it.
