Some creations feel like poetry in yarn. This yarn was one of them - graceful, quiet and soft, with a tiny crown resting proudly on her head. I made her with patience and love, and when the sun set behind her, she almost looked alive, gliding across a golden lake.
Why a swan? Because swans have always symbolised elegance and calm to me. They move so smoothly across the water, yet carry a quiet strength. I wanted to capture that feeling in yarn - something delicate, yet strong enough to be hugged.
The swan began with soft white yarn, loop by loop, building her body and her long, graceful neck. The crown was a fun touch - a tiny detail that made her feel like a queen of the lake. The hardest part? Getting her head just right, so she looked peaceful and proud, not grumpy.
When I placed her against the sunset, she seemed to glow. The golden light caught her crown, and suddenly, this crochet project became something more - a memory, a piece of art. Jane called her "Queen".
This swan is a reminder of elegance in simplicity. Just yarn, stitched and imagination - yet she carries herself with such calmness. I love how crochet can turn something ordinary into something that feels alive. Crochet isn't just making toys - it is storytelling. This swan tells a story of grace, light, and quiet beauty.
What animal would you love to see in crochet? Maybe one day, I'll make it too.
