Seeing the Vision Come Together 👀 Day 3 Hula Hoop Crocheted Mandala

Completed June 2026

This crochet hula hoop mandala project marks day three of adapting Helen Shrimpton’s Sacred Space Blanket design using sturdy Lion Brand 24/7 Cotton yarn.

Watching this piece grow has completely solidified why I love detailed, high-concentration crochet projects. Reaching the third day of stitches brought me to a gorgeous, deep mustard-gold row that beautifully breaks up the cooler blues and grays of the center, followed by a heavily textured navy border. Letting the yarn selections happen completely on the fly without overthinking the final layout continues to be the ultimate calming, meditative exercise after a busy day.
