Well, I got some yarn together and wrote down this pattern, as I promised myself I would. It's the Easter version of the black and white number I made a few weeks ago. I had some Beadies yarn in a color called Chick, and used some light lavender worsted weight yarn for the top. For hat, skirt and top, I used an "F" hook. To begin: Skirt - Row 1 - Chain 17, sc in the second chain from hook and next 15 chains (16 sc), ch 1 and working in opposite side of starting chain, sc in next 3 st, inc in next st, sc in 3 st, inc in next, sc in 3 st, inc in next st, sc in 3 st - leave remaining ch unworked. Ch 1 and turn Row 2 - (Sc in 3 st, inc in next st)across, sl to join in first sc (24 st). Do not turn. You will begin working in rounds. Round 3 - ch 1, (sc in same st and next 4 st, inc in next st) around, join in first sc. (28 st) Round 4 - Round 8 - Ch 1, sc in each st, join with first sc (28 st) Round 9 - ch 1, sc in same st, skip next st, 5 dc in next st, skip next st,*(
This is the most creative crochet I have ever seen. They are absolutely beautiful.
ReplyDeleteDid you follow a pattern for this or design them yourself?

This is sooo precious!!!!! (((((HUGS))))) sandi
ReplyDeleteThanks for your kind words! The set was worked from a pattern from Annie's Attic called "The Birth of Christ".
ReplyDeleteI was on line looking for a pattern to the nativity. I done a set for myself about 20 years ago, but I can't find my pattern anywhere. I saw yours and it looks so much like mine. Could you please tell me where to go to find it.
ReplyDeleteYour nativity set is beautiful.
The pattern is an out-of-print pattern from Annie's Attic. I would encourage you to contact Annie's Attic to ask them to re-issue the pattern. I have seen them reprint several older booklets recently. If they know there is a big demand for it, they may publish it again.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the compliments!
Where did you find the pattern for this wonderful Nativity set??? I collect Nativity sets, all differnt mediums. I have ceramic ones, crystal ones, resin ones and crocheted ones. But I am always looking for new sets. Would you share the link to this pattern? Please!!!
