...the inspiration lampshade at the back of this pic by Ilaria
... the lampshade found at a vintage craft market
...fitting the granny squares
Yippee... 5 granny squares fits perfectly around the top part of the lampshade...
Crocheting white granny squares with spots of bright colours... and attaching them to one another...
...a decorative pattern from a jersey becomes the 'lacy' piece at the bottom of the lampshade cover
...the lacy bit completed, as well as ribbon threaded through the treble crochet stitches
...a scallop pattern for the top
...the finished product...
This is gorgeous!! Did you pinch these from your pile of granny squares, or did you make them especially? I LOVE the white with the colours, such a sunny, Summery feel! What a great idea! I was wondering what you were going to do with that frame - great to see the finished project :)
