Mandala Monday – MANDALA BOHEMIAN CROCHET VEST by Hectanooga1

Today’s tutorial is MANDALA BOHEMIAN CROCHET VEST by Hectanooga1. We have seen several other crochet videos including Mandala Monday – How to Crochet A Mandala: Sunrise by The Crochet Crowd, Mandala Monday – How to Crochet A Mandala: Shells by The Crochet Crowd,  Mandala Monday – How to Crochet Mandala Dreamcatcher by Naztazia, and Mandala Monday – How to Crochet Flower of Life Chain Shawl by Donna Wolfe and since they have been popular, I looked for more tutorials on crochet and mandalas.

Here is what Hectanooga1  has to say about this video:

FREE CROCHET PATTERN on my BLOG- Mandela Bohemian Vest, with summer collar (as opposed to a shawl collar). This free pattern and demo is for Adult small, should fit 30 to 38 inch chest, and is available for FREE ON MY BLOG, the link is: https://hectanoogapatterns.blogspot.ca/2017/05/free-crochet-pattern-mandala-vest-1135yt.html

This video was well over 20 hours in the making, and it takes some brutal editing to reduce to a visual demo that is still explanatory in less than 20 minutes! Hopefully I have done so, and I won’t leave you frustrated because I failed to explain sufficiently. A big thank you to you all for watching my videos!

Enjoy!
