Buongiorno a tutti! Oggi vi propongo un nuovo progetto! Una deliziosa orchidea all'uncinetto :D Io le considero, senza dubbio, tra i fiori più belli e affascinanti... l'unico inconveniente è che sono abbastanza difficili da curare (tutte quelle che ho avuto sono morte stecchite nel giro di poche settimane :( )
Hi! Today I want to show you a new project: A crocheted orchid! I found theese flower beautiful, but I've never been able to keep them alive :( This is the reason why I decided to crochet them :D
Sono molto soddisfatta del risultato finale e spero che piacciano anche a voi! Lo schema è abbastanza semplice, di seguito trovate due video in cui vi spiego come realizzarne una tutta vostra :)
Spero che sia tutto chiaro, lasciate un commento per farmi sapere che cosa ne pensate e per restare aggiornati su tutti i miei lavori, seguite la mia pagina facebook : MaryJ Handmade
