Craft Cove Blog: 2024

Refurbished website

 I have decided to completely refurbish my website https://craftcove.weebly.com/

It is still being done as we speak






I will no longer sell directly from there. It will become a gallery of items I have made. Both sold and not sold


I'm too eager to make new things, but not so much the admin side, so this will simplify things a bit. 


To buy anything, go straight to https://madeit.com.au/collections/craft-cove you can buy many of my items from there, or you can just contact me through the contact page, or by emailing craftcove@gmail.com. 

You can also request an item to be uploaded to madeit, and bought from there, if you feel more comfortable that way

I'm happy to make to order if it's no longer available, although many things are one-offs, I can often make something similar

I will still take international orders, but you will need to contact me for postage costs





So to reiterate: go over to https://craftcove.weebly.com/ for a showcase of what I can do

And go to https://madeit.com.au/collections/craft-cove for some items ready to be sold. Or email me

The Augenia Boho Bag- what you'll need





To make the Augenia Boho Bag, you'll need a few things



You will need some thread/yarn

For this bag, I used Panda Regal 4 ply cotton. This is equivalent to fingering yarn in other countries

I made it in a cream, black, and light blue





You could use a thicker yarn to make a bigger bag. Or even do a smaller one, by using thinner yarn. Your choice



You will need a crochet hook. I used a 3.00mm hook. Which is size D, in US


But you will need to adjust this if you use a different thickness yarn








You will need some lining. Anything will do. I used poly cotton lining fabric



But you could use anything you like. In any pattern, or colour you like



The other thing you would need is, some ribbon, cord, or some type of string, for the drawstring top

I just used ribbon







Be ready to start on October 1st

The Augenia Boho Bag

The Augenia Boho Bag is a drawstring bag with some fancy stitches like popcorns and front and back post stitches to add some interest


It is fully lined, to add strength to the bag, and has ribbon to create the draw string (But you could use anything you like here)











I will be hosting this CAL for the "Crochet-A-Long with Us!" Facebook group crew starting on Tuesday, October 1st, 2024.  If you would like to join in, you can either join the group or follow along here.

https://www.facebook.com/groups/450997598757832


The pattern will be available to buy through Ravelry at half price during the CAL. The normal price will be AU$7. But during the CAL it will be AU$3.50.  This is less than a cup of coffee

Note: Ravelry will adjust the price to your country for you


There will be 4 parts to this pattern. each new part will be released on a Tuesday, approximately 8PM, Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST)


Week 1- October 1st: you will learn to make the base


Week 2- October 8th: you will learn to do the pattern up to round 31


Week 3- October 15th: will be the rest of the crochet parts


Week 4October 22nd:  you will learn to sew the lining


By the end of the 4th week you will have a fully finished bag

 My websites and blog, have been neglected for a while
