Peacock Feather Mandala
Have you ever seen a male peacock strolling along a park or a forest proudly presenting his tail? Those majestic birds amaze me every time I encounter one. You have to agree that their metallic blue-green feathers are breathtaking. This blue-green mandala pattern reminds me of their beautiful tails.

Rainbow Circle Granny Square
Do you like colourful granny squares? When it comes to colours, the sky is the limit. How to find the right combination? When you look at your skeins separately, at first, you might not see their full potential. It might even happen that the colour you loved earlier is not what you pictured once you use it in your project. So the best idea is to dry different colour combinations until you find the perfect match. As I love playing with colours myself, this time, I decided to introduce a bit of rainbow into my new granny square.

Orange Blossom Mandala
There is something magical when it comes to mandalas. The combination of colours and texture is so pleasant and relaxing. I love making them, but I also find them so addictive. Once you start making one, there seems to be no end to it.

This particular one was so much fun to make. It can be a table decoration or used to create a pretty pillow. Pattern: by Tally’s Crafts Recommended yarn: Scheepjes Catona Recommended hook…
