Summer lace crochet, linen and cotton

Summer is here so it's time to wear lighter clothing! I was so hungry for colors and lace this summer that I crochet a few new items for our shop and for myself. I used linen and cotton yarn to make these so everything is natural and nice to have against your bare skin.

 

This little teal green shoulderette is very attractive.

 

It was crocheted from linen yarn and embellished with satin ribbon. A lovely way to cover your shoulders!

 

Another option for your shoulders is this mint green linen wrap. It can be worn as a scarf or wrap, it's up to you. The color is amazing.

These crochet linen barefoot sandals are an easy solution for fancy up your feet. They will draw attention to your beautiful legs in an instant! Great to wear around the pool, on the beach or during a summer party.

 

I crochet them in turquoise and hot pink colors.

And finally is this little wrap I made for myself. It can be used for around your waist or shoulders. It is made of white cotton thread and has ties to secure the width. I am going to use it as a cover up around the pool or on a beach if I will make it there this summer.

I can not wait for a swimming pool season :)

Knit cell phone sleeve, beach style

Spring in Arizona is more like mid summer in Europe. The nights and the mornings are slightly chilly and the afternoons are hot and lazy.

So I am always dreaming of a vacation by the sea at this time a year. I am actually even shopping for outfits I would wear if we'd go. I am looking at maps, searching for the best travel deals and dreaming of snorkeling.

It happened again this year. I've already pick up some new beach style gowns and looking for the perfect purse and shoes. While I am still shopping I've got an idea on a great knit beach bag which would be big enough to hold everything I need. 

This idea is still in a process but while working on it we made a small cotton sleeve for my cell phone to match the bag. It's color reminds me of white coral bleached by the sun on the seashore. The design is simple but this is what I love about it.

 

We made one like this for our Socksandmittens shop on Etsy - stop by if you need one!

Newly made - cotton beach blanket!

I crochet this sunny beach blanket for a friend.

She likes it! :)
It is a wonderful pattern and I made this blanket from cotton yarn. Since the thread is really fine, I have put a lot of thread and work in it.
I am definitely happy with the result!
So, I am thinking about making the same one for myself! :)

in a tropical paradise - it's the easiest stylish hairdo when I just want to wear my hair back,

on a spa day,

or simply sipping my morning coffee in it!
