Wedding Ring Crocheted Pattern

[chefmomster2]

Hi! My son will be married at the end of the month so I've been very interested in all things wedding. I found this one by Katherine Eng. It must be purchased. It uses a variety of shades of blue which could definately be replaced by any coloe desired. It's beautiful!

It's pretty but looks small in the picture. Maybe it's folded.

Please post the "Lover's Lace" pattern - I would love to see it. The "Wedding Ring" really will take a lot of time to make but, as I said, I have almost a year!

I love that pattern! Thank you so very much for finding it for me.

I think that one is definitely more than I want to tackle. But, thanks for sending it to me! I'm sure glad I joined Crochet Talk!

Good Morning,
Can you please share the Lovers Lace pattern?

Thanks,
Linda

It looks like you hit a nerve and everyone want the Lover's Lace pattern. Also post any pictures you have of your work.

I don't have any pictures yet . I will be done with the HOUNDSTOOTH afghan in the next 2-3 days and will post it. I'm not sure what I'm doing with this pattern but I wanted to say in this post that it comes from Crochet Fantasy Magazine, their December 1985 issue. That's how long I have been making it and hauling this pattern around, 27 years! I've never kept one. Never had a reason to take pictures of them until now. I usually make them in my trusty Red Heart Super Saver color Soft White. It looks bridal without being a glaring bright white. I have a wedding in March I have to make one for. I will post pictures.
Hugs, Jane

Okay, we forgive bad behavior in the past but don't let it happen now!!! Can't wait to see the pictures. Does all that about the old magazine mean that we can't have the pattern? lol
