Hi all!<\/p>\n

The first pattern of 2015 is based on the Wand\/Staff used by Sakura on the first season of the anime Cardcaptor Sakura <3 This anime was a very special piece of my childhood and, when I was a child, I used to ask to\u00a0my father to make her wand for me, hehe! Now, I can make my own wand, yay! Oh, moreover this wand is also a pen! However, if you don’t want to make a pen, just follow the pattern normally and don’t put the pen inside the stick.<\/p>\n

This was another secondary\u00a0project I was working. I hope you like it ^^<\/p>\n

\"wand\"<\/a> \"wand2\"<\/a> \"wand1\"<\/a> \"wand4\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Materials:<\/p>\n

– Red yarn\u00a0(I used Esterlina 5<\/a> by Coats, which is a\u00a0Light Fingering \/ 3 ply);
\n– Pink\u00a0Yarn (I used Esterlina 5<\/a> by Coats, which is a\u00a0Light Fingering \/ 3 ply);
\n– Gold\u00a0yarn (I used Esterlina 5<\/a> by Coats, which is a\u00a0Light Fingering \/ 3 ply);
\n– White Yarn (I used Anne by Circulo<\/a>, which is a\u00a0Fingering \/ 4 ply (14 wpi)) (You may use Esterlina here too, I think it won’t be a problem);
\n– 1.75mm crochet hook;
\n– Fiberfill;
\n– Tapestry needle;
\n– Scissors;
\n– pen cartridge (I used a pen cartridge from BIC) or a 4mm diameter\u00a0pen;
\n– 4mm diameter tube (The one I used I got from an old TV antenna);
\n– Pink\/Red (It is a pink almost red)\u00a0bead;
\n– Contact glue.<\/p>\n

Notes:<\/p>\n

– I always do my crochet works using continuous rounds;
\n– Everytime I will do a crochet work, the first thing I do is take a look in the entirely pattern before start doing it, so, I can have an idea of how the pattern works. Well, I recommend you to do the same;
\n– For sewing the pieces together you will use the tapestry needle;
\n– To make the wand as a pen you will need a very tine pen with 4mm diameter or a tube with 4mm diameter and a pen cartridge. I used a tube and a pen cartridge;
\n– To make the round jewel of the wand you can use a pink bead or you can make a crochet circle.<\/p>\n

Update (06.06.2015): Hi Guys! I want to thank you all for being so kind and for all the kindly words\u00a0you sent me by comments or email! Recently, I’m having a hard time to answer all the questions sent to my email and the comments. I’m sorry that I’m not able to answer your doubts. However, if you have any doubt, I’m sure that it is worth to leave a comment here, because even if I can’t\u00a0answer you, I’m sure that someone in the community will try to help you out ^^<\/p>\n
