Stone Collection & Underwater Cave includes three different sizes of smooth stones to crochet, and a bonus cave design. Crochet all three stone patterns in several colours to create natural-looking arrangements in bowls, piles, or stacks. The Stone Collection patterns work equally well for creating a serene and stylish decorative display or as background elements in a crocheted aquarium, with the bonus Underwater Cave pattern as an extra feature for your aquatic displays.
Stone Collection & Underwater Cave are four original crochet patterns by June Gilbank, including patterns for three different sizes of smooth flattened stones and a bonus sturdy cave for aquatic amigurumi.
Stone Collection Details:
- The collection includes three no-sew patterns: Pebble (small), Stone (medium) and Rock (large), all with smooth, flattened, slightly asymmetric shapes.
- By varying the stuffing level, you can shape each stone to be flatter or more rounded, giving you even more variety from the three sizes.
- The pattern also includes tips for stuffing and arrangement, and a special smooth finishing technique.
Underwater Cave Details:
- This no-sew pattern is crocheted in one piece with a double-layer construction and a sturdy lower edge that makes it stable enough to hold its shape without any additional support!
- Perfect for an amigurumi octopus or other aquatic ami friend to peek out of in a crocheted aquarium. [See the PlanetJune aquarium pattern collection here.]
Yarn: worsted weight yarn in grey or any other natural stone colour, e.g. brown, black, white, beige, etc. Tip: Heathered, speckled or flecked yarns can work very well to represent realistic stone.
