Bronze Extraganaza Dress

 I was going to an evening affair for dancing and entertainment.  There was going to be a live band with a female violionist/singer.  I wanted something that would sparkle but also be toned down a little so that the sparkle would not be throughout the dress.   I decided to use Paton's Metallic Orange,   Brown and white and Brown.   I decided the the Metallic Orange would be used in the dress so I started to look through my old crocheted squarea and found a light orange metallic piece that I had two.  This would be perfect with the dress.   I also went to the yarn store Knitty City and decided that I would find some yarn that would match it.  I found a variegated yarn and a solid that would be perfect.



Chain Reaction Necklace

I love using my favorite metallic yarn from Lion Brand. This is done in Copper and chain stitch is used to create rows of chain and then black yarn is added to the sides.


Denim tassel Necklace

I used metallic and Denim to create this necklace. The gold yarn has metallic strands running through it and the chain stitch show a little glimmer of sparkle.

Necklace



This necklace was created  gold metallic and blue thread by combining the two threads together.  I think that the metallic thread adds a shine to the piece.   I created the necklace in a tube using single crochet.  Then I  tied a knot to give the necklace dimension.

Red and Blue Sparkle Necklace

This necklace was created using Lang metallic thread.  I chose blue and red in the design.  I created a medallion with the red and accented it with the blue

White flowing cape

This cape is created using various crochet stitches as a free form pattern.  I needed a poncho for a sping evening and I chose white yarn.   I can wear this basically with anything and anytime.  The great thing that it is open and flowing.

Double Black Circle Necklace

I think that the metallic yarna works great for jewelry.  It allows for the sparkle of the yarn to shine.  You get glitz and glamour without adding beads.  I paired this Paton's gold metallic yarn with black acrylic yarn to create a double circle  necklace.

Golden Red Necklace

This necklace is creating using acrylic red yarn and metallic gold yarn that was created by Karabella.  I enjoyed using this gold yarn because it was metallic all the way through without being interwined with other yarns.  It added sparkle to the jewelry.


Summer Fun Water Bottle Carrier

I added this carrier because it can be worn around the neck.  You can use it for your waterbottle or small items such as your phone and small wallet because it is long enough to slide the items down.  Just a little  crochet fun for the summer.  You can always have crochet with you.
