Spring Time Mandalas

Spring Time Mandalas Mindful crochet - Quick projects to calm the mind. Sometimes I just want a nice quick project that will allow me to experiment with colour and stitches, and use up some of the yarn that I already have in my stash. I find mandalas are perfect for this.  They satisfy my crochet itch without the stress of starting another large, seemingly never ending project. They are quick to complete and make great little gifts for friends and family.  I tend to use my mandalas as little mats to sit under my flower vases, protecting the surface underneath from any watermarks. Or, for really intricate designs, I have in the past popped them into box frames as they make great little pieces of art work. Why not show off your crochet skills for all to see!  There are some great resources on the internet with free mandala patterns.  Here are a couple of crochet mandalas I have enjoyed making in the past and the links to the websites with the patterns I used.
