AboutMarla Expertise I have crocheted many doilies, I enjoy working with crochet thread. I have crocheted numerous afghans. But I have little to no experience in hairpin lace, or the afghan stitch. If you have a question pertaining to a pattern in a magazine, book or leaflet, please include the name and # of it, and the page or pattern #. There is a slight possibility I may have that pattern, and can refer to it. Although I have crocheted sweaters and slippers,I don't feel I have done enough of them to really give good advice as to assembling the pieces, but can give advice on the type of stitches.
Experience I have been a crocheter for almost 30 years.
I crochet enough to get by and I can do simple things. Because money is low, I thought I would crochet my daughter a scarf for christmas and put a lightning bolt in it for the san diego chargers. I haven't a pattern to use. Do you have a pattern for scarves with a lightning bolt?
Thank you so very much,
Paula
Answer Hi Paula!
Thanks for asking! The only pattern of a lightening bolt I have is where each line is a separate “bolt”, and probably is not what you want. I searched on the web for patterns, but couldn’t find any. I saw that the Chargers have a message board on their website. Maybe someone there would have a pattern they would like to share. If you still can’t find anything, maybe you could just crochet the words “San Diego Chargers” into the scarf. I made a mat for my dog with his name on it, using block lettering. Also using the similar method, perhaps you could trace the lightening bolt onto some graph paper and using the blocks in the graph paper as a pattern. If you need help with this I can help you. I can still send you the lightening bolt pattern if you wish. Maybe you could modify it to make it look like a Chargers bolt. Good luck and let me know!I am going out of town for a couple of days, so I may not be able to respond quickly.
