St. Patrick’s Day party favors? I wanted a little something to look like St. Patrick’s Day for a potluck on the 16th. I looked at every free pattern for shamrocks that Google found. But none were exactly what I had in mind. Don’t you just hate that? But isn’t it the way it always is? So in a whole lot less time than I spent looking for a pattern, I came up with 15 of these. Luckily I had a partial skein of a St Patty’s like green and didn’t have to make a Wal-Mart run.
MY SHAMROCK PIN
Materials and supplies:
Crochet hook size J
Small amount green worsted weight yarn

I just had a lot of fun making two of these now on my day off. I'm going to wear one, and give the other to a friend. I used some light green baby sport and one strand dark green thread so it shows up on anything. Thank you so much for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThe best shamrock pattern I found. Made 20 just tonight for my knit and crochet group. Thanks! CherylJ
ReplyDeleteThank you, yours (IMHO) was the nicest shamrock I found out there.

I made my 9 month old Grand daughter a dress for St. Pats, instead of using the flowers that the pattern recommended I whipped up a few of theses to put on it. I am also attaching a cluster of three to a white headband! thanks so much I really think the shamrocks will make the outfit that much more special. I made mine with sport weight and an F hook and they came out perfect. thanks again!
ReplyDeleteThese look so cute as hair clips!
ReplyDeleteThanks for a fun pattern. I have made several to give away and everyone just loves them. You have the best patterns. God bless you!

ReplyDeleteMade some out of Vel-lux. Used smaller hook to accommodate thicker yarn. They turned out so lovely. Thank you.
