THIS LISTING HOLDS THE ENGLISH/GERMAN/DANISH/SWEDISH/DUTCH VERSION OF THE PATTERN. Inspired by a journey through Japan last year i made a few notes about a pattern idea that involved the sacred lotus flowers and the stunning blossom trees that is tourist visit idea number one when you go to Japan. I had an idea in my head to turn these wonderful gifts of nature into a crochet pattern. After a lot of designing and testing the end result was even beyond my imagination. So i introduce the Lotus & Blossom mandala. A really easy-to-go pattern which has written instructions with photo highlights in it. At each row you have a photo tutorial to make things a bit more easy when you get confused along the way. But once you got the hang of this pattern, you can lay back and crochet on and on. Every project so far made in any kind of yarn is made with a 3 mm hook. The finished sizes of the projects are : Finished size in Catona cotton : 75 cm/ 29.5 inches from point to point Finished size in Scheepjes Whirl : 70 cm / 27,5 inches from point to point UPDATE 10/03 : On my blog i wrote a seperate blogpost about extending the pattern because there were a lot of questions about it. Yarn needed : Of course u can use any yarn you like, but for the examples are used : 6 colors of mercerized cotton – i used Scheepjes Catona in skeins of 50 grams. Color A : – 392 lime juice ( 25 grams needed ) Color B : 512 Lime ( 45 grams needed ) Color C : 130 Old Lace ( 60 grams needed ) Color D : 255 Nude ( 90 grams needed ) Color E : 408 Old Rose ( 55 grams needed ) Color F : 264 Light Coral ( 40 grams needed ) Or take a Scheepjes Whirl with a length of 1000 meters and a weight of 215 – 225 grams. You can just work your way through the pattern without colour changing. The pattern is written for both ways as it gives the option for the color changes and working with one thread.You only have to make the modified when using a Whirl becaue you will use more yarn. See the notes about it in the pattern. When finished you will have 30 – 50 grams left, this depends on the tension of your work. stitches used in this pattern variates from sl st – tr but most of them are front-posted or back-posted. There is a written instruction of the stitches, however if this not enough to make them i refer to the internet. It are common stitches which can be found all over the internet with tutorials. All stitches are in US/European measurements. The pattern is tested carefully by five different testers. The pattern is now available in a Persian, Swedish,Dutch, Danish and German translation also. The German translation is made by Christina Berberich. The Swedish version is translated by Johanna Lindahl from Mijo Crochet. The Danish version is translated by Line Lykholt. After 17-06 there were some small updates in the pattern uploaded. Er is een kleine errata gevonden in de NL versie op 04-08-19, in Ronde 12 mist er een 5V in 3 lossen-ruimte, deze ziet u ook op de foto maar staat niet in het herhalingsgedeelte. Na deze datum is het patroon herzien. For more information about the pattern or some background information, please visit my blog : https://theguywiththehook.wordpress.com/

In the mid 1990’s strange, circular drawings were found on the sea floor off the coast of Japan. Beautiful, circular drawings in the sand measuring approximately 7 feet across. It was discovered that the artist behind these sand mandalas was a newly discovered species of puffer fish. The small, approximately 5 inches, male puffer fish would work days moving sand and constructing the peaks and valleys of the design simply by flapping his fins, then decorating his work with bits of shells. The laborious design is all to attract a mate. If the female puffer fish likes the design she will lay her eggs in the fine sand at the center for the male to then fertilize. See more See less

Stunning Crochet Mandala Squares We’ve all seen stunning mandala bedspreads, usually presented as crochet-a-long. They are very complicated and a lot of fun for seasoned crocheters! The best thing though, in my opinion, is the fact that you can choose to make only a part of such project – let’s say, the central square. You can use it in many ways, for example make a cushion, square bag or just anything else you can think of! Choose the colors you want to work with and try it today. I’m sure you will learn a lot on the way, because these
