The Pattern Portfolio contains the patterns of 3 dazzling mandalas, designed by Yessabett Bueno, which you crochet with Scheepjes Whirl. These beautiful decorative pieces are an eye-catcher in any home. Each pattern has been created with great care and detail. In the Pattern Portfolio you will find beautiful photos, written crochet instructions and handy crochet diagrams for each mandala, as well as an overview of all the colourways of Scheepjes Whirl.
Scheepjes Whirl is a beautiful yarn with a fantastic colour gradient. It is a so-called unicat yarn, where the colours change per ply. This ensures smooth, natural colour gradients. Scheepjes Whirl has a generous twist, which prevents it from splitting when knitting or crocheting quickly. At each colour change, the fibres have been tied by hand leaving a subtle fluff or fuzz buzz, which will hide discretely between your stitches, giving you a smooth, flawless finish. The smooth result makes the yarn perfect for (lace) scarves, accessories, clothing and stylish home decor projects. The extra-long running length of the yarn cakes means that one cake is enough for a large scarf or shawl. Also required for these patterns is a large hoop for mounting in a 90cm diameter.
