Bolero á-l`a Carlos Miele




Well, that was a long, long pause. Many things happened in between, the major being a move to a new appartment and it is still not settled yet. During this time some new projects managed to get finished nevertheless.






First I start with some works from 2007.
Somewhere during spring 2007 I discovered the existance of a gorgeous, stunning white cache-coeur by fashion designer Carlos Miele. If I am not mistaken it was from season spring 2006 and I simply fell in love with it.
I decided to make something similar and it was not very easy. Luckily some other girls on a Russian site, Osinka also fell for it and by the time I found this design they have already crochetted theirs. They provided the basic diagram and I adjusted it to my size and cut. It became a bolero instead of a cache-coeur and later I had some problem finding a nice brouch to use as a pin. I finished by making one with beads.
It was very exciting project!
