March 2nd's produce for the #marchmarketmedley challenge was the fabulous PEA. Okay, okay. I know today is not the 2nd anymore, but my day got away from me and I ran out of time to write. For my design I chose to go with crocheting again. I just find crochet so much more flexible than knitting when creating 3-D objects. I will be attempting some knit items for the challenge, though. Don't you worry! Anyway... When I garden I REALLY love to add a lot of color. This means growing foods that are not only delicious, but a different color than you would normally see. Last year I picked out the Snap Pea 'Blauwshokkers' or Blue Podded Pea. This variety is an heirloom from Europe that is ornamental with a bluish purple pod and lovely violet and mauve flowers. It was only natural for me to model my crochet pea design after this variety! Truth is, I'm really in love with this piece. It is just so COOL. I think it's pretty functional as well. Personally, I like to just set it on my chair and let it look sweet all by itself or with other pillows. Speaking of which, you COULD use it as a pillow as well. Last, but not least, use it as a toy for your child or pet. Who wouldn't want to play catch with those cute squidgy peas? Clean up is a breeze, too. Just stuff the peas back in their pod and store away for next play time. This brings me to where you'll be able to get the pattern. You'll be able to find the pattern for sale in my Ravelry and Etsy Shops. If you'd like to order a physical item, direct message me on any of my social media venues!
Hope you Enjoy!
