Fabulous chairs...

Pinned Image

I've been spending waaaaaaaaay too much time on Pinterest... where I came across some rather fabulous crochet chairs, including this crochet deckchair. This deckchair is so wonderful I would happily have it in my living room...

This crochet armchair is a work of art:




I'd like to think one day I will attempt to re-upholster an armchair with crochet, but for now I will have to settle for throwing my WIP kaleidoscope blanket over one of my chairs.

  1. The deckchair and armchair are fabulous, I imagine you would need a strong lining to the deckchair or you might end up with your derriere on the floor!
    Your blanket gets more lovely every time I see it.

  2. Hehe, I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who drapes my crochet works in progress in different places to admire them from all different angles! And why not after all? Your blanket is growing so fast and looking ever so lovely :)

  8. I can't quit smiling after drooling over the crocheted arm chair, the deck chair is pretty awesome too - but that arm chair is a work of art. I don't think I could have that in my house. I'd never let anyone sit in it...lol.

    Kaleidoscope is beautiful! I started one of my own, but it's slow going since I've got a knitted sock project and a granny rectangle blanket on my hook and a butterfly quilt trying to take shape. I just love your blog - so many interesting and colorful inspirations are here.

  10. You caleidoscope was MADE for that chair!
    The deckchair appeared ± 2 months ago in a local magazine, "Ideas", and the name says it all. I have back-copies to 2005, you just can't throw it away! SO many ideas of things to do make, cook, bake etc. It's available in Afrikaans (Idees) and English. The website www.idees.co.za also has an English option. Also check it out on Facebook.

  12. I pinned the deckchair too (and have now pinned the armchair - I really really want to make one!) Just got into pinterest and it is a real time vampire but I think it will change the way I work in the future.
    Your blanket is coming along beautifully.

  18. Yes, those chairs ARE beautiful. I quite agree. However your blanket is equally stunning.

    Lovely post.

  19. The chairs are great! But I love your wip blanket across the chair just as much, and it will probably bill less over time than a real live crocheted chair. Thanks for sharing the pictures!
