Celosia/Doretta

Celosia, also called Doretta, was published in Kunstbreiwerk B39 (in German, Kunstbreien B59) and Old World Treasures. You can see a photo of it here.

The instructions are fairly simple. Cast on 8 stitches and join into a round. Repeat the chart 4 times per round. To see the entire chart, right-click on the image and choose "view image" or whatever choice your browser offers. You can also right-click on the chart and download it to your computer. The instructions in Kunstbreiwerk specify casting off by crocheting together groups of 5 stitches. The instructions don't say how many chain stitches should be made between the decreases. Also, on the last round the number of stitches is a multiple of 6, not 5, so I think it would work out better to bind off in groups of 6 and chain 12 stitches between decreases.

Remember:

  • Feel free to download and use the charts, print copies for your own use. However, you may not print them out and share them with others. Send folks to my website so they can download for themselves.
  • I don't own the original pattern, but I do own my recharted version. So, please don't copy my charts and claim them as your own or publish them under your name. If you want to have your own charts, then find the original patterns and rechart them yourself!
  • Do not sell copies of these charts. If I don't charge for my recharts, you certainly shouldn't charge for my recharts!
