RUBY DIAMOND - free tapestry crochet pattern

Hello everyone!

I know I've been a little bit absent of the virtual world, but I really needed some time to refocus and enjoy crocheting again! I was getting caught by the stress of social media performance, which was putting me into a creative rut, making me loose sight of why I started crocheting in the first place and taking the fun out of it all.

I started learning tapestry crochet because it appeared to me as a beautiful, intricate and challenging crochet technique. I immediatly fell in love with it, with all the creative possibilities, like a whole new world in front of me. I hoped that with my work I would be able to bring more peolple into trying and loving tapestry crochet. Now, I'm slowly getting my crojo back and one of my resolutions is to create some FREE PATTERNS. That way I can really share with you my journey and what I've learned and still am learning!

Cosmetic Pouch Tapestry Crochet PATTERN

This is the second pattern I designed for the "Writing" colection of modern crochet cosmetic pouches. I chose a burgundy tone colour cause I love them and it's a happy coincidence that it's a very trendy colour at the moment!

The "MAKE UP" Crochet Cosmetic Pouch

A while ago I took a different road on my #tapestrycrochet adventure and decided to do some modern cosmetic pouches. I've been a little more interested in make up than usual and bought some new beauty stuff but didn't really had a cosmetic bag for my make up. So I grabbed my pencil, doodled some designs and came up with this pattern.

Very First Crochet Tutorial!

Being featured by @crochetgirlgang on instagram with my Rainbow Mountain Pikes crochet clutch gave me some visibility and a received lots of compliments about my work, as well as kind and encouraging words from crochet lovers. Some asked me for tutorials of my works and others even asked me for tips and advices. I felt very flattered that my work was appreciated and that people reached out to me for help. I really don't see myself as an expert in crochet, quite the contrary, I've been crocheting for just a little time and I still have a lot to learn. But I do my best in every project I made!

That being said, all the great feedback gave me the motivation to make tutorials of my crochet designs. I had read lots of tutorials online but never tought that one day I would be doing one for others to see.
