That is awesome. If you printed out the pattern, usually the website address prints on the top or bottom of the page, HINT HINT ;) I would love to know where to find the pattern as well!!

[Thumpy]

What an amazing doily! I love it!

[pinkroses]

[surfbabe]

Hi Riohnna,

I love your seahorse!!! Where did you get the pattern from? Could you send me the pattern please? Pretty please? :hug I really want to make it so very much! :yes

[Riohnna]

Ok, people! I found the site where I got the seahorse. TThe site is located here, http://www.myhq.com/public/c/r/crochetpoet/ under symbol crochet. Just don't ask me which page,,,I can't read it! Sorry it took so long.

[sallenlouise]

i like him!!!

[sunnywolfgar]

oh hes very cute. and that seahorse web site has lots of cute critters from the sea........

[siminsc]

I went there and found lots of interesting patterns but I couldn't find that pattern. If anyone locates it, please post it here for the rest of us. Iooked for a long time, too.

[waponswa]

That is the coolest thing that I have ever seen in thread!

[soluna]

i have this pattern, great job on it too,:clap i havent done it yet, but i agree that is so cute.

[monael]

soluna
could you just post where we can find it?

[soluna]

i really dont know where you could find it online anymore, i found it a long time ago, and didnt saved the link, i saved the pattern only.:blush :think

[Riohnna]

I am still trying to find it.

[monael]

Darn! I have spent a lot of time on that site but still no luck. Oh well. I am finding some interesting things anyways!

[CROCHETY]

The seahorse is just gorgeous! Did you ever find the pattern?

[TX CrochetLover]

That is a beautiful seahorse! You did an excellent job on this piece!

[mythunderbird]

you did a awesome job, i love how it turned out, i can see this framed with a blue back ground. would show it off just beautiful, :hug:hug:hug:hug:hug:hug

[Chanti]

I love it, that is gorgeous, great work.

[hseger]

That is really neat. I'll have to do one to put in my DD's shadow box from our vacation.

[JoBug]

Beautiful!! I love it, great work :clap

[CROCHETY]

Riohnna,
I was wondering if you have the name of the person or publication from which you got the seahorse pattern, and those of us interested could contact that entity and maybe get permission to have the pattern distributed. I know I would be happy to pay for the pattern! I am just so in love with that seahorse, and I am not usually a thread crochet kind of person!

[Tampa Doll]

Very Beautiful. I love the sea horse. I really don't know how I missed this when it was posted. Must be old age. lol:lol

[Mom w/a Motif]

Very nice! It reminds me of a big version of Cupcake's seahorse. :hook

Tina

[Riohnna]

I honestly don't know who did the pattern,,,when I had found it, I neglected to save the url. Someone did find it and sent me the link, but in my excitement, I deleted it!!!

[monael]

Do you have the printout? Many times the print out has the url at the top or bottom of the page. Do you have any clues???

[debsydoo]

oh WOW that is http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v337/debsydoo/tags%20and%20clipart/blkflowers3.gif i have never seen anything like that before

[Riohnna]

No clues at all. Nothing showed on the printout. TY for the compliments!

[crochetgirl2]

Very kewl - wouldn't a crochet top look keen w/them as an 'edging' all around the bottom!! You could alternate them - one turned left, one turned right - or turn them all the same direction - I'd try making a top like this if only I had the time!

Smiles, Louise

[crochetgirl2]

Boy, my mind went crazy last nite thinking about a crocheted top w/these sea horses all 'round the bottom as an edging - I pictured them in various bright colors around a shorter dark top &/or pastel colored top! Gosh, how'd I luv luv luv to make a top like that. Or even a white/ecru colored top w/all white/ecru sea horses or bright colors - just about anything would work! And any length of top too.

Smiles, Louise

[Brae]

A friend sent me a link to this seahorse but it was on one of those 'illegal-over-here-but-not-over-there' Russian sites full of copyrighted material. The seahorse pattern has been removed.

[peppermintpatti]

Wow how interesting. Very nice.:)

[MsSuzKelly]

That is so nice Rhionna. I meant to tell you yesterday - I checked out your website and saw it there.

[danisboots]

hey i just had a thought.(sometimes a dangerous thing! lol) since i have also searched for the seahorse pattern and cant find it and done a few searches on line with no luck. why dont we try and make a challenge out of this and figure out just how it was constructed and maybe Rhionna can let us know if we are on the right track? here is what i am seeing on how to reconstruct the seahorse.(by the way i love challenges like this!) if you start with a chain for his tail,(approx 55 chains) then right where his belly starts you increase double crochets and work up the row on his belly. (see where i mean?) this might be a start, i see the back is worked sideways and i would say that is done later after the belly and head, (and i would start working the sideways part of the back from the base of the tail up?) anyone game for helping me figure this out, as i also love this design!!!

by the way does the original pattern have a name of the designer or any other distinguishing things written on it to I.D. it perhaps? im sorry i know we are asking a lot of questions about it. i also wonder if the picture were posted on the "seeking patterns" forum if someone might be able to I.D. where it came from? just a thought. smiles, dani

[crochetluvknot]

your seahorse if beautiful

[KarenParker]

Hi there, I'm new here, but I'm up to the challenge!;) Riohnna, I wonder if you could maybe take another picture with higher resolution? When I try to view the pic larger to count stitches it gets all blurry... saw your sea horse on photobucket first, it took me a while to find this group...and then I read all seven pages of this just to find out that no one knows the patter... that's sad... and something that must be corrected!
Beautiful work. Really inspired me to pick up a crochet hook again. Thanks!!! :manyheart

[Lavelle26]

Very cute.

[monchichi_bright]

Wow!!!! that is awesome looking

[CROCHETY]

I'm with you on the challenge. I would love to make this seahorse!

[KarenParker]

I figured out a baby seahorse. it's 2 1/2" big, really cute (I think : ) ). I don't have a camera, but I'll try to get over to a friends house someday who does. It's similar, but not quite as ornate. I'll gladly send directions to anyone who sends a love donation of any amount my way!

[coco_pop]

Great job!:cheer

[gravel10]

Now That Is My Kind Of Doily

[jap]

Looks very delicate, like a sea horse. Very awesome job!

[kameleonkat]

this is beautiful! I will be looking for one of these patterns because i really want to make one now for a friend that loves sea creatures.

[monmonorama]

I love it!

[thebratfink]

Stunning! :cheer






:devil

[knittymama]

OH! I love it. Now I must get it, too.

[crochet_hen]

Your seahorse is fantastic! Great job:cheer

[jap]

Very pretty and delicate! just like a real sea horse!

[ladybugdreams]

Has anyone found the pattern (the original one that Rhionna made us drool with :) yet? I looked at the site she listed, but can't find the bugger.

_pllleeeeease?_ I'd say I'm desperate, but that would sound bad... ;)

thanks!

[daisycrochet]

wow!! i love it!! not as much as the one I have tatted but I still need to know where you got this pattern. pretty pretty please with sugar on top??
I think it would look great framed with a colored material background. I tried tatting...good grief I couldn't get it to work for me, lol. Tatting is beautiful work.

[cmelanieb]

That is absolutely stunning! I love it! I have hermit crabs, I should hunt for a pattern!
