Crochet lace rim makes a Sweet Easter Bowl

Here is a fun way to bling up a plain plastic bowl.  The bowls were $1 at Target.  The varigated yarn is in pretty Easter colors and can be purchased at Michaels. 

I used my Crop-a-dile to punch 3/16" holes all around the bowl  This bowl had ridges.  I punched a hole at each ridge and a hole between each ridge.  This way they were evenly spaced out.  It ended up I had 60 holes around my bowl each about 1/2" apart.

I created my own lace crochet pattern.  I'm not a crochet pattern writter but I will describe it the best I can.

I used a size G crochet hook because that was the largest hook I had that would still fit through the holes. 

As I went around the bowl the first time through each of the holes in the bowl, I did a single crochet and a chain 1.

The second row around I did a single, double, single in every other chain 1 space.  In the alternate chain 1 spaces I did just a single crochet.

On the thrid round, in every other single space I did 5 double crochet stitches to make a scallop.  I attached each side of the scallop down with a single crochet.

On the fourth and final round, I did a chain 4 then a single crochet into every other stitch around the entire bowl.

There are 6 ladies in my crochet group so I've got 6 little bunnies in the bowl.  I'm thinking they will enjoy seeing what I created all on my own.

I'd love to see what Easter creations you are working on.  Please leave me a comment so I can see your work.

Blessings,

Nancy
