Bobble Sneak Peek: Quick, Soft, Colourful, Warm and Cosy

Yesterday I promised you a sneak peek of my new crochet design using Scheepjes Our Tribe using the colourway that carries my business name The Curio Crafts Room. So here it is! All soft and colourful and warm and cosy and bobbly and......a really quick project :) Aren't the colours fab? The very rich blue matches 'my' variegated yarn perfectly.

Can you tell what it is? Well, in this photo it isn't finished yet, but the end result is simply a little longer than what you see here. It's an ideal in-between holiday project that works up very quickly as I used the yarn double stranded, going for a deep, peacocky blue to match 'my own' variegated yarn. With a 6.5mm hook I worked beautiful, soft bobbles to drape around your neck and to keep you warm both at home and outdoors. Curious to see more? Full reveal will follow very soon!


Yarn combinations
As you can see there are so many colours in this yarn range. It would be fun to make all kinds of different yarn combinations with one variegated ball and one uni-coloured ball.
What about the gorgeous soft shades of 970 and 882? Or the reds in 971 and 877?

Yarn technicalities
Our Tribe is a variegated yarn that is beautifully twined, which creates a dappled effect and thus the idea that there are even more than the 6 different colours each ball consists of. The more the colours contrast, the more dappled the effect. It's super soft and works up very smoothly and quickly. It consists of 70% Merino Superwash and 30% Polyamide and comes in 100g (420m) balls suitable for hook/needle size 2.5 to 3mm, or even larger when making shawls because that'll result in a beautiful drape. It's machine washable at 40 degrees. Since the day we created the blogger colourways, quite a few new colours have been added to the range and now you can choose from 38 different colours - both variegated and single colours.
