This week I’m happy to present Oriental Star by Christine Bateman of Cat Whiskers Crochet.  This is a fun and straightforward design with a striking result. It can look very different depending upon your color placement.  Thanks for this lovely design, Christine! Christine has burst on the scene recently with stunning designs and I cannot wait to see what else she comes up with.  I love Fired Earth and the Jackfield Tile Square.  See all Chris’s patterns here in her Ravelry Store.  

I am loving my new palette in Stylecraft Batik, purchase at Wool Warehouse or Deramores through my links!

Have you purchased your CAL bag yet – only a few left – my custom heavy-duty canvas tote bag. NEW: For the bag alone without included patterns, see this Etsy listing. For a free bag with pattern purchase see here for more information.
