Crochet collar

This picture didn't make it in to the book - it is the tiara which also makes a great collar. This was worked in two strands of wire worked together which makes it flexible, the colours were black and purple and the over all effect was good. I also made a variation in silver wire with pearls and Swarvoski - which looked great for a wedding. Because I work in a fine wire it is easy to wear.

Work is coming along on 10,000 Great Ideas, Ian is working hard on some new functionality. One of the important features that we want to introduce is a good searchable database of patterns - so if you are looking for something to do with 4 oz of mohair - you can search for just those patterns. Of course one of the first things we will need to do is to promote the site so people know they can post their knitting and crochet designs there for free.
