Hello my friends and welcome back to my blog!
Today is the first day of Summer, so what better day to share this fun free project?!
Many of you on this side of the globe are probably already on vacation or planning to go. What is your idea of vacation? Do you like to be spoiled in luxurious hotels or you prefer to be more in contact with nature?
I definitely prefer the second option and I'd love the idea of traveling with a cute little camper...exactly like the one we all are gonna crochet today!!!
So, grab your hook and yarn and let's go on our new crochet adventure together!
__________________________________________________________________________________________
For this project I used Domigurumi Cotton, gifted me by the sweet Domitilla (owner of Domigurumi).
This extremely easy to work with yarn is made of cotton fibers crafted to make it specially soft to touch. Thanks to this cotton, the stitches result nice and neat and well defined.
Make sure to check out her website and her Instagram account (@domi.gurumi) and discover all the yarn options!
