Craft with Jenny Brandis

Crochet Pincushions

I was recently surfing the net looking for something craft wise to do and came across instructions for Crochet Cupcake Pincushions designed by Priscilla Hewitt and a Crochet Donut Pincushion by Nevadamama.

Well I made some of them and it started the brain working. A bit more surfing for ideas found Flickr tagged Pincushions. Literally thousands of pincushion photos.

Photos of felt pincushions made me wonder if I could make some in crochet - here are my efforts. What do you think?

Click on the pictures to get the instructions in PDF format. You will need Acrobat Reader to read this file but you can download that software free from www.adobe.com. They are my own instructions so if they do not make sense please let me know so that I can fix them.
