July 19, 2013 By Beatrice Ryan Designs Leave a Comment

I wanted to share a few more things I have whipped up… These super feminine Flowers and Chains Crochet Scarves are so stylish and they were super easy to make… They can be worn in several ways and are great all year round to spruce up your wardrobe! The purple/green one reminded me of pansy’s and the orange/yellow reminds me of poppy’s… They can be worked up using your stash yarn… I will be working out the pattern for you soon and these two are available on my Etsy Shop…

I also added a couple of really cute hats to my Etsy Shop… A Grey Boxy Cloche and a Wool Spring Green Hat… I love these hats! My new friend the mannequin is really pretty,,, But,,, They do look even better on a live person!…

A Summer of Crochet at My Etsy Shop!

July 18, 2013 By Beatrice Ryan Designs Leave a Comment

I am always working on something new… I have been working hard to fill up my Etsy Shop with great summertime projects… I came home last night to two big boxes I had been waiting for… One had a new beautiful mannequin head and the other a mannequin body to style scarves, wraps and clothing items… The body is my size so I can create garments to fit even better… I was able to use them last night to photograph three of my latest Etsy listings… Here is a peek…

I was so excited to get my mannequins working,,, I took these photos last night… It was almost dark so the quality of the pictures didn’t show the vibrancy of the colors as well as I want,,, So I will be taking a few new photos today!

Summertime Crochet Shell!

July 17, 2013 By Beatrice Ryan Designs Leave a Comment

So I finally finished the cute tank top I have been working on! It turned out better than I imagined it would! Usually when I make myself a garment it doesn’t fit as well as this one does… I made a couple adjustments to the pattern, but this is a super simple, quick pattern if you are looking for something to make for yourself this summer! It is on Ravelry for a free download, by Kim Guzman… Shell Shell is the name of the pattern…Click here to check it out. I made mine using a Black Cotton Yarn from Knit Picks! It is a little hard to see the details in the picture, but it is really cute… I am going to buy some bright Cami’s to where under it so it shows off the pattern! Tell me what you think!!!

I added some extra rows to the shoulder area and finished all the edges with a reverse sc, those were the only changes needed to make it to my taste!… This is a size small…

Not the best quality picture,,, But it is really a comfy cute Shell!

I am about halfway done with my next True Colors Afghan for my Etsy Shop… I will post the pictures when it’s done… Summer seems to be a slower time for crochet… But I still do a couple of hours each evening!

So here is to my New Shell and Summer Crochet!

Find me on Facebook and check out my items on Etsy,,, I will be adding more tomorrow!
