African Spirit

My latest design African spirit was inspired by the African culture and animals. I really enjoyed using lots of colours and I’ve specified where I changed colours, but you can either go wild or go neutral, anything will look great. There is a detailed border that’s optional to do. You can either do a blanket, wall hanging or table runner. The download includes the full WRITTEN PATTERN and CHARTS, in separate PDFs, please check your library. IN ENGLISH ONLY. THE GIRAFFE, FLAMINGO AND MEERKAT IS A FREE DOWNLOAD WITH YOUR PURCHASE. A overlay Mosaic crochet pattern and with your purchase there’s 3 PDF downloads, the written pattern, the charts, and the detailed border, and this pattern uses US Terminology.
