I am making a blouse using this Irish rose pattern here is the pattern for you use. You can use it to make afghans or any thing else you can work your mind around. I am using sewing thread and a size 14 steel hook but you are welcome to use any hook that corresponds to your yarn size...

I will add other details to the blouse. My thread is vintage sewing. I plan on there being this pattern down the center of both sleeves, across the top of the yoke front/back and a few stripes down the front of the bodice. I think I will use antique blue hand dyed mother pearl buttons up the back if they match well enough in color have not checked yet.
