My Grapevine Mandala
- The below photos are the small version of the Grapevine Mandala that I made.
- I partially blocked it as the first photo shows, which I found was enough to straighten it out.
- It is 39cm diameter, but may turn out bigger if I was to block it properly.
- I was very happy with the result.
- This pattern is more complicated than I’m used to, but I managed it without any problems 😊
- Definitely worth the time!!
- I used Ice Yarns Alara 8ply cotton blend. It took less than a ball of each colour. I think it would be nice in 100% cotton also.
These circular patterns are made by crocheting stitches in a repeating pattern, building on each other to create a stunning finished piece. The beauty of crochet mandalas lies in their versatility and endless possibilities for customization.
