It was a while back, but I was working with chain loops, and I was experimenting with the effect that was made by twisting these loops to work the stitches. It might not seem like this simple concept should actually do much, and if it is worked without subsequent rounds it can just make things feel, well twisted. However it creates neat negative spaces, and actually makes the open work feel a little heartier without adding bulk.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1228\" style=\"width: 211px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Tendrils-Throw-Afghan-All.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1228\" class=\"wp-image-1228 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Tendrils-Throw-Afghan-All-201x300.jpg\" alt=\"Tendrils-Throw-Afghan-All\" width=\"201\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Tendrils-Throw-Afghan-All-201x300.jpg 201w, https:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Tendrils-Throw-Afghan-All.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 201px) 100vw, 201px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1228\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tendrils Throw Photo courtesy of Love of Crochet\/ Julia Vandenoever<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Overall the inspiration was taken from ivy that was climbing on a wrought-iron fence, I think that the shells and picots that make up the solid spaces of this resemble leaves, while the chain loops form the iron work of support.<\/p>\n<p>The pattern creates a throw that is large enough to cover a twin size bed, and if placed over a solid bed cover can be reminiscent of the heritage thread bedspreads, it can also add a bit of whimsy and feminine touch to a garden space.<\/p>\n<p>I like how it ultimately came together, I hope you enjoy it too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There is something about taking a simple skill, like making a crochet chain, and using it in a way that you hadn\u2019t conceived of in the past to make you smile.
