Hello Rainbows 🌈
I’m starting this new year 2023 by sharing a pattern that will take you directly to the stars ✨
But above all, I’m starting with a new type of pattern that I had never tested before and that I had fun designing (who knows, maybe other patterns of this type will emerge later 🤔). It is therefore the Starry Night wall hanging!
⭐ Inspiration ⭐
If you follow me in my adventures, you will remember that I released two patterns related to the Moon during the summer of 2022: Luna, the Moon Princess, and the Moon phases. So it’s not the first time I’ve taken you to the starry sky 😊
The starry sky inspires me a lot and, during the end of the year 2022, I had a lot of synchronicities with the stars and the night. Without really realizing it, I found myself buying a lot of notebooks and other accessories in this star theme 🙈
It was during December 2022 that I really wanted to create a pattern still with moons but also inserting stars. Initially, my first sketch looked more like a simple garland of stars and moons. Then it evolved into today’s wall hanging.
So why did I turn it into a wall hanging? I had never realized it and I had seen it on Pinterest for a while. I also wanted to turn it into a real decoration that you can easily put on a wall.
🌖 Technical details of the Wall Hanging🌗
Simple and quick to make, this wall hanging will add a starry touch to a room!
It is therefore perfect for decoration but also to offer.
Her pattern is suitable for crocheters with a beginner level.
