Do you have a “must make list”? A crochet clock has been on mine for ages!
With a crochet hook in my holiday hold-all, a clock mechanism sourced from a local charity shop and Barbara’s of Made in K town amazing Mandala flower pattern (found via Lucy’s recent Attic 24 post) the time was right!
Do you want to see my Mandala Flower Crochet Clock in the making?
If you are following Barbara’s instructions the last photo is of Round 7. At this point my Mandala flower clock face’s diameter was 7cm, however as I needed it to be 16cm radius I repeated some of the rounds above.
And after a few more rounds…
It was time to add the flower border!
Clock hands and buttons!
Thanks Barbara! Thanks Lucy! I love it!
This is such a pretty and fun design! I’m following Barbara’s pattern up to round 7, but after that I can’t get the increases right and my clock’s curling up and turning into a hat
Is there any chance that you could share your pattern?
I didn’t write down a pattern for mine, I sort of went with the flow with the aim of keeping the circle flat. If started to bend upwards like a bowl or down like a hat I added a few extra stitches on the next round to flatten it. If the edges became wavy then i decreased by a few stitches on the next round… Hope that helps.
Oh My God…. I love it! I will make it! Thank you for this great idea.
Thank you!
What a fab idea! I’ve seen a few crochet clocks but this is by far my favourite!
Thank you so much. It’s a bit of a talking point when my friends come round! X
That’s so cool! My crochet skills are improving but not consistent enough yet!
Thank you. It was easier to make than it looks!
I am amazed at how different the border makes it look. I had to check it was the same item!
I know, it’s such a great pattern. x
this is amazing, i love it to bits. (Pinned, too).
Thank you so much and for pinning
A crochet clock has never occurred to me! It certainly made me smile.
Thank you. I saw one in a magazine a while ago and just knew I had to make one. x
