Crocheted from individual granny squares, it is sewn together at the end. There’s a hidden opening for swapping out the balloon.

You should have a basic understanding of single crochet, double crochet, and chain stitches.

Lace Shawl for Beginners

This delicate lace shawl offers subtle glimpses of bare skin—just enough to look elegant and alluring.

The shawl, with its airy stitches (lace), is very easy for even beginners to knitting and lace to recreate, since I explain and demonstrate everything in great detail, step by step. We’ll knit just two pattern rows that alternate continuously.

I hope you enjoy this project and, of course, wearing your shawl. You can wear it open with a dress or tied for an everyday look. This makes the shawl versatile and lets you showcase your style in new ways every time. The color play comes directly from the ball of yarn.

Warm regards—Ina

The little dolls of our daughters and granddaughters will be happy about a bit of new summer fashion, too. These short halter dresses are quick to crochet and fasten in the back with lacing. To match, you get a crochet pattern for a lovely hat and a clutch.

I hope you have lots of fun with this halter dress, completed with a hat and clutch . Yours, Ina

Hot days are best spent by the water!
Barbie and her friends think so too, and they’ve packed everything up right away:

• lace swimsuits
• air mattress
• beach towel
• sun hat
• beach umbrella
• beach bag (Mochila Bag)

You can crochet this whole beach set from a few cotton scraps. It’s great even on hot days, since the small amount of material (cool cotton) won’t make you sweat as easily. In no time, you’ll have crocheted a great beach outfit for your daughter’s or granddaughter’s Barbies. She’s sure to be absolutely delighted with it.
