Safe to say, I have become a huge fan of this Coraza pattern. Created by the super talented Tinna who is also very well known for her mosaic crochet patterns. I needed a project to work on while our daughter takes her taekwondo classes, and since we are there for 2 hours 2-3 days a week on average I get a lot of time to work on them. So far I have completed 6 shawls while at the taekwondo school, the mauve one in the top row, which was a gift for my sister, and all the ones in row 2 and the last one.
The first 3 I completed prior, but led me to realize how perfect this pattern is for on the go. No row counting, no stitch counting, crazy simple stitch repeats of dc’s and chains. I use a 3.5mm hook, the red one if you also use the Clover Amore set and I mainly use Hobbii yarns like Sultan, Dahlia or Twister, or Yarn Art Flowers cakes would also be great for this. A single cake is the perfect amount. I add the tassels at home after I finish the last round, which lead to a bit of a bead acquiring frenzy for a short period of time, but I think I am good now, I have enough variety to select from and it is one of my favorite parts of the project.
To call out the elephant in the room, it has been years since I posted here, but I never stopped crocheting, I just relied more on Ravelry to keep my notes for projects, which will continue to be the case primarily, but I just thought it would be nice to post an update to say I am still here and still crocheting. Thanks for stopping by!
