I visited the blog of Emma Varnam and saw a fantastic make that I just had to do - right away, not just because I liked the look of it but while packing my work bag for this afternoon I found that my lanyard had broken and I shoved the clip end into my sewing box for something and found a working one that was red.
I thought mmm that isn't going to go with all of my work clothes so I made this.
Crochet beaded lanyard, I am still kind of stuck with the red card case but I can change that next time I am in the office. 45 mins from seeing it, commenting on it and then making it. Prefect.

45 minutes from start to finish - that is fantastic and it looks so good! I also wear a security badge so I may need to take a look at this pattern. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI had lots of lovely comments today about it so give it a go. I managed to beg a navy blue card surround to go on the end - now I can wear all of my work clothes with it, not just the red ones. Jo x
