Yes, you read that correctly: today I’m releasing a new mandala pattern, AND there will be a CAL! :D
The pattern is my Summer Hearts Mandala, which I designed for Simply Crochet magazine last year. The pattern has 11 pages and features large, clear photos with step-by-step instructions. As usual it has a Cheat Sheet at the back (for quick reading, and to print out instead of the entire pattern).
It works up great with a 4mm hook and Drops Paris cotton yarn, but you could easily substitute those for your favourite yarn & hook combination!
You can get the summer hearts mandala crochet pattern from the usual suspects: my Ravelry shop, my Etsy shop, or my Craftsy shop.
And if you’d like to make the summer hearts mandala as part of a CAL, head on over to Lazy Daisy Jones and/or Chrissie Crafts; they are hosting a Mandala CAL on their blogs! :) You can choose to make one of my mandala patterns, but there are also links to other great patterns you can make. The sky is the limit people!
Have fun making those gorgeous mandalas; be sure to upload your pictures to Ravelry. I’d love to see! :)

Hi Wink, I was hoping you might be able to help me. I was in the process of drafting a new blog post for a monthly mandalong project on Friday night just gone, did the grab button you name it and then on Saturday as I was flicking through my fave blogs I saw that the lovely Chrissie and Mrs Daisy are doing one too (great minds think alike). I have spoken to Chrissie and it seems they are only doing the one, so that works well for my plan. The plan is to do twelve mandalas, one a month and the first one I chose off ravelry was needless to say YOURS. I figured that it would only be right to ask permission to use this and was hoping that you might be able to pop over to my blog or just send me an email, possibly easier, and let me know if this will be ok?? I am hoping to send the blog post out sometime tomorrow and will be delighted if I could use the tutorial you did on the 16th of January and shared on http://crafts.tutsplus.com/tutorials/make-a-crochet-mandala-for-your-home–craft-2744. I will also be more than happy to do some of your other patterns, if you are happy to share or navigate me in the right direction. I look forward to hearing from you. Hannapat xoxo

Thank you very much!
