Item details

Welcome to Janiemade and my little corner of Folksy where you can buy my crocheted creations. If you're looking for skilfully handmade gifts and home decor I hope you'll find something you love. I enjoy crocheting with natural fibres, mainly cotton, and many of my home decor items use recycled braided cotton cord or recycled cotton T shirt yarn. All items are ready to post and I only charge postage on your first item. Your order will be sent by Royal Mail 2nd class post.
Happy shopping, Jane :)

I love making this ammonite pattern and wondered if I could create a much smaller one using thinner cord and a smaller hook - after a bit of experimentation, here it is!

Based on a pattern by Rebecca Johnson, published in Mollie Makes magazine, July 2021.

This item will be posted to you by Janiemade within 3 days of receiving payment.

Full description

A beautifully little tactile crocheted ammonite in Teal, made with a high quality, recycled, 100% cotton braided cord. The item is sturdy and keeps its shape and the cord gives great definition to the crochet stitches used to create it. Please note that this colour is difficult to show accurately, the main image is the most true to life (on my monitor anyway!) as it is a darkish teal, more green than blue.

This attractive small shell would look equally good displayed on a shelf, or used to hold an air plant, tiny cactus or houseplant. It could also provide useful storage to keep bits and bobs tidy on a desk or dressing table. The pattern describes it as an ammonite but it is also the shape of a nautilus shell so would fit in well with a seaside theme.

Measurements: Approximately 9cm tall at its highest point, 14cm in length, and 6cm across at its widest point. I also make larger versions of this basket, see separate listings.

Care instructions: I recommend a gentle surface clean with a damp cloth to remove dust but item may be carefully washed by hand at 30°C, reshape whilst damp. Do not bleach; Do not iron; Do not tumble dry.

I am happy to make ammonites in other colours, or as a set in your choice of colours and sizes, on request. This cotton cord is available in a wide range of shades, please message me for details.
