Yo yo Puff Yapımı

Yapılışı için tık tık

Have you ever fascinated with the fabric yo-yo puffs to make this and this and this and this? If you can crochet, I have a crochet version to make those yo-yo puffs!!!!

As you may notice, this is not a normal crochet circular shape, it is a real double layer yo-yo puff just like the fabric version. I crocheted a summer hat for my daughter by using these yo-yo puffs… you will get to see this in my next tutorial [Update: click the summer hat link to go there]. There are so many great projects for fabric yo-yo, now we can transform them into crochet version…. may be a comfy baby blanket, what do you think?

Crochet yo-yo puff is not difficult to make, as long as you know how to do chain, treble, treble decrease and triple treble. Following are the step by step photos and instructions on how to crochet it.

Difficulty Level: Beginner, must know how to crochet tptr, tr, dc, tr2tog, sl st & ch

Abbreviations:

ch = chain
tr = treble
tr dec = Treble decrease (aka tr2tog – treble next 2 stitches together)
tptr = Triple treble
sl st = slip stitch
st = stitch
yo = yarn over

Patterns:

Yo-Yo Puff

Written:

Starting Ring: ch5, slst to first chain to form a base ring.
Rnd 1 : ch8, tptr19, slst to the 8th chain.
Rnd 2 : ch3, tr on the next st, *tr2tog or tr dec on the next 2 sts*, repeat * 9 times, slst to the dc loop. fo with at least 8″ long yarn tail.

Diagram:

Using 2.5mm hook or recommended hook size for your choice of yarn.
Starting chain: chain 5, sl st to the first chain to form a ring.
Round 1: Chain 8, this is deem as the first st of your tptr.
To crochet a tptr: Yo 4 times, insert hook into the ring, yo, draw loop through (6 loops on hook), *yo, draw through 2 loops* 5 times.
A finished tptr as the 2nd st of this round. Crochet another 18 tptr to have 20 sts in the ring altogether.
Sl st to the 8th chain of the first st to complete 1st round.
Next, we are going to decrease the st to make the back layer of the puff.
Round 2: Chain 3, yo twice and get ready to crochet a tr.
Insert hook in the next st, yo, draw loop through (4 loops on hook), *yo, draw through 2 loops on the hook*, repeat 3 times.
This deem to be the first pair of tr dec.
Crochet tr dec for the next 2 sts; Yo twice, insert hook in the next st,yo, draw loop through (4 loops on hook), *yo, draw through 2 loops* twice to make the 1st st of tr dec. Repeat the same for the 2nd st of tr dec.
Yo, draw through 3 loops on the hook. Repeat another 8 times for the tr dec.
Sl st to the 3rd chain. Leaving a long end of about 8″.
Use a tapestry needle to sew the chain edge of the 2nd round to the wrong side of the first round slightly away from the center opening.
Finished yo-yo puff with 1st round as the right side. It is about 1.5″ in diameter if using 100% cotton DK light worsted yarn with 2.5mm hook.
Stay tuned to my upcoming post which I made a summer hat for my daughter by using these puffs.

Are you done with Christmas crafting? I am almost done and I am so happy to have designed and made some Christmas theme coasters this year…. I called them Poinsettia Coasters as they have the colors of the poinsettia flowers!!!!

A week ago, I felt like I need something for my table this Christmas but I was totally out of idea of what to make. I blindly walked into a craft shop and bought red, green and white yarns but seriously I didn’t know what I am going to do with them. I felt like I need to buy them because they are “Christmas” colors. I was not worried as I knew that the angels will bring some ideas to me since I have been a good girl all these years!!! Inspiration struck, why not crochet some drink coasters for my table? I altered my original yo-yo puff pattern to make it smaller (about 1″ each) and hence denser. Similar to the wide brim hat I made for my daughter, joined 6 red yo-yo puffs to a center green puff to form a hexagon shape for the red poinsettia. Reverse the colors for a green poinsettia. I have used red and green, what about white color? Guess it or have a quick peek by scrolling down to the end of the post to see what I have done with white yarns

Difficulty Level: Beginner, must know how to crochet tr, dc, dc2tog, sl st & ch

Finished size: approx. 3″ dia.
Gauge: Not essential as long as the hook size matches the yarn weight.

Materials & Tools:

1. Yarn : light worsted DK, red and green (about 40g of each to make 6 coasters). Use heavier yarn weight for bigger coasters.
2. Crochet hook: 2.5 mm
3. Tapestry Needle (to join and hide yarn ends)
4. Scissor

Abbreviations:

ch = chain
dc=double crochet
tr=treble (triple) crochet
dc2tog=double crochet decrease
st = stitch
slst = slip stitch
fo = fasten off

Patterns:

Yo-Yo Puff

Written:
Starting Ring: ch4, slst to first chain to form a base ring.
Rnd 1 : ch5, tr17, slst to the 5th chain.
Rnd 2 : ch2, dc on the next st, *dc2tog on the next 2 sts*, repeat * 7 times, slst to the dc loop. fo with at least 4″ long yarn tail.

Diagram:

For red poinsettia coasters, prepare 6 red yo-yo puffs and 1 green yo-yo puff by following the above crochet pattern.
Arrange them in a flower shape like the photo on the left.
Use a tapestry needle to sew the chain edge of the 2nd round to the wrong side of the first round slightly away from the center opening.
This is how it looks after the tagging. The opening is smaller and both the top and bottom centers are aligned.
With wrong side facing each other, join the puffs together by stitching 2 sts of them.
Repeat stitching to all the puffs to form a flower shape. Hide and trim yarn ends.

As a variation in colors, turn the poinsettia coaster into snow flakes Christmas tree ornament. So easy! And, if you wonder about the small amigurumi Christmas tree next to it, get the pattern here.
