Crochet Pattern Can Covers "Mexican Beauty" applique + russian doll patch

Product description

Crochet Pattern Can Covers "Mexican Beauty" applique + russian doll patch, Upcycling Project

Don't throw away used tin cans! Give them a quick wash in the dishwasher and you've got perfect storage containers.
To ensure they don’t stand out bare and boring, this pattern will help you dress them up in vibrant colors in no time!
In this guide, I'll show you how to crochet the sleeve for two standard can sizes, which can then be adorned with unique “Friiiida” patches.

Store pens, ribbons, trims, buttons, and beads inside. They also serve as flower pot covers, gift wrappings, or simply as pretty decorative items!

In addition to colorful cotton yarns, you will need empty, cleaned tin cans. The pattern provides detailed information about required materials and sizes.

Including BONUS pattern - a gift for you!
As a special bonus, this package includes an additional free PDF crochet pattern titled "Matryoshka Applique", offering an alternative to the Friiidas, allowing you to beautify your cans with little Russian doll patches!

Super schön !
Habe zum ersten Mal mit Metallringen gehäkelt, dank der tollen detaillierten Anleitung war es leichter als gedacht. Habe den Sonnenfänger meiner Mum geschenkt, die im Pflegeheim wohnt. Das Resultat: muß jetzt für ihre Zimmernachbarinnen auch noch welche häkeln, weil die es so schön fanden !!!! (-:

Eine sehr gut verständliche Anleitung. Es macht regelrecht süchtig, die fröhlich bunten Wimpel zu häkeln.
