Wild women dance between worlds.
VALERIA is a tribal-inspired crochet tassel collar, that has a beautifully shaped leather neckline. The collar has strings on both sides to tie them on your back - this way it stays still even while dancing. The garment was originally designed for a dance costume, but it effortlessly transforms into a unique statement piece for festivals, parties and events.
The pattern is available in English and Finnish. The English version is written in standard US crochet terms.
The pattern includes:
- Step-by-step written instructions
- Printable pattern for the neckline
- Progress photos
- Diagrams
- Two videos
- 17 pages
Size options: XS/S and M/L.
The size is adjustable. The smaller one fits for about 80-90 cm bust, and the bigger size for about 90-100cm (at least).
Skill level: intermediate.
You only need to know how to do a chain stitch, single crochet and a double crochet. You will learn how to combine leather and crochet, add beads to your crochet piece, and attach tassels.

- Hook size 3 mm and 5 mm / US 3 and 8
- Sport or DK weight yarn 100 g - 150 g
