Feu d’artifice au Crochet!


Bonjour! Comme j’ai promis la semaine dernière, pour célébrer le jour Bastille pour nos amis en France, voici un modèle pour un fusée de crochet! Et oui, je sais que mon français est mauvais hahaha.


Kay, back to English, my french isn’t very great. So today I’m going to be posting a new pattern for a Crocheted Rocket / Firework to celebrate both our independence day in America (I know it’s a bit late haha) as well as Frances independence day! Wooo!!



To go along with this pattern, check out last weeks free Party Popper pattern here! 

If you like these two patterns and want to help me out and donate for more free patterns in the future 😉 then feel free to buy both of these patterns on my Etsy HERE! They’ll be sent to you in a shiny PDF pattern in a matter of just a few hours! AND (yes there is an and) you’ll get a coupon for 25% off your next Louie’s Loops pattern!

Again though, the rocket pattern will be here on the 14th so if you want to wait, and don’t want to donate 🙁 (haha) then feel free to wait! If not here’s where you can get it now.
