Design Inspiration behind this FREE Colorblock Crochet Wrap Pattern

I’m sure many of you have watched Pocahontas growing up and although we probably didn’t truly grasp the important message behind the movie when we were younger, it was a favorite for many of us. My absolute favorite song from the movie was of course Colors of the Wind from the picturization to the beautiful lyrics, everything was beautiful. When I signed up for this blog event, I had no idea I would end up here. I knew I wanted to design a wearable accessory but that was pretty much it.

Enter Wander Palette Packs! These palettes are all SO gorgeous from the shine to the softness and come in so many amazing color combinations. Of course, my favorite was the Autumn Palette Pack, I am a sucker for jewel and warm tones and anything FALL! So this palette was PERFECT. As my design ideas evolved, I wanted to somehow showcase a spiral of colors and that led me to the Colors of the Wind song and I drew inspiration from the swirling of colors throughout the song to bring you this gorgeous FREE Tunisian color block crochet wrap pattern. I am beyond thrilled with how this Tunisian crochet wrap pattern turned out! I hope you love making it as much as I did!

Since my design is heavily inspired by a song that speaks to the struggles of the Native American people, I would like to urge you all to read the following articles and donate to the charities mentioned if you can to support their cause.

Design Inspiration – Crochet Granny Square Vest Pattern FREE:

Introducing a culturally-inspired crop granny square vest crochet pattern! Welcome the #BasantiVest!

A little bit of background: Rang De Basanti in Hindi translates to “color me saffron.” The orange saffron color is an integral piece of the Indian flag and it represents courage and bravery! The green in the flag represents the fertility of the land and white represents peace and unity. The blue wheel symbolizes the sky and the ocean.

When I tell people I’m Muslim, they automatically assume I’m from Pakistan and it’s frustrating because I’m a proud Hyderabadi Indian and I love my culture! I made this vest in honor of that love for India and its rich culture but also to make a statement because Muslims are being discriminated against by Hindu nationalists all over India simply for being Muslim and it needs to stop.

A few accounts you can follow to learn more about the discrimination and support the cause: Rana Ayyub on both Instagram and Twitter; Siasat Daily; Hindutva Watch; and if you have the means please donate to Indian American Muslim Council. Also, a shout out to my cousin Zafar for providing this info, give him a follow on Twitter @DeccaniBhai where he shares tidbits of comedy along with political commentary on the Middle East/North Africa and South Asian politics.

Mohey mohey tu rang de Basanti! Let’s put on our Basanti Vest and be courageous and brave, stand up for what’s right, and teach kindness always! Don’t let politics create this divide in our beautiful India!

I brought in classic elements like the sheeshas (mirrors) and gold metallic tassels because I love them so much! This granny square vest design has been on my mind for several months, I thought it would be perfect for #GrannySquareDay which falls on Aug. 15th this year which is also India’s Independence Day!

Note: The Basanti Vest instructions below are a rough recipe, this pattern has not been tech edited or tested so please let me know if you see any issues and I will correct them as soon as possible! I am also offering an ad-free PDF but for a very low price considering this is a garment (if I had tech edited or tested this pattern it would be $6+ but I am offering it for just $3 right now).

GRANNY SQUARE VEST SCHEMATIC

Granny Square Vest Recipe: Important calculations before you begin making this crochet granny square vest

Follow Instruction below for How to Make a Granny Square Vest – Crochet Granny Square Vest Tutorial

GRANNY SQUARE VEST BACK WAIST LENGTH

This is the measurement from your neck to your waist. If you want a cropped vest, take the measurement from your neck to mid-back.

Divide your back waist length by 4 to find out the number of granny squares you need to make the length of your vest. 

This is how many granny squares you need to make up the back waist length, note the number here:       .

EXAMPLE CALCULATION FOR BACK WAIST LENGTH:

Cropped Back waist length was 12 in. Divide 12 in. by 4 to get the total number of granny squares to make the length of vest: 3 granny squares.

I needed a total of 3 granny squares to make the length of the vest.

GRANNY SQUARE VEST BACK PANEL:

Divide your waist circumference by 2 to find out your panel width, note the number here:      .  Subtract 2 from this number to account for the border (border will add about 2 in.). Note the number here:     . Divide this number by 4 to find out the number of granny squares you need to make the width of the back of your vest. Note the number here:     . Multiply by the number of granny squares you need to make the back waist length. Note the number here:    . Subtract 2 from this number and note it here (subtracted 2 because we will replace 2 squares with triangles to give some shaping):    . 

This is how many granny squares you will need for the back panel, Note the number here:     . 

EXAMPLE CALCULATION FOR BACK PANEL: 

Waist circumference was 37 in. So 37 divided by 2 = 18.5 in. rounded up to 19 in. 19 minus 2 to account for the border, 17 in. 17 divided by 4 = 4.25 rounded down to 4. A total of 4 granny squares are needed to complete the width of the back panel. 4 granny squares across multiplied by 3 granny squares for length= 12 granny squares total. 12 – 2 = 10 granny squares in total for the back panel (subtracted 2 because we will replace 2 squares with triangles to give some shaping). I made two Tunisian crochet triangles for the armhole shaping, you could make granny triangles instead if you would like. 

Make two Tunisian crochet triangles or granny triangles.

GRANNY SQUARE VEST FRONT PANELS:

Divide chest/bust measurement by 4 to find out how many inches each front panel should be across. Note the number here:    . Divide this number by 4 to find out how many granny squares make up each front panel width. Multiply by the number of granny squares needed for back waist length. Note the number here:    .  Subtract two from this number to get the total number of granny squares for ONE front panel. 

This is the total number of granny squares you will need for one front panel, note the number here:   .

Make two granny triangles for each front panel.

Make two extra granny squares for inside pockets.

EXAMPLE CALCULATION FOR FRONT PANELS

Chest circumference was 38 in. 38 in. divided by 4= 9.5 in. makes up the panel width. 9.5 in. divided by 4 in.= 2.375 rounded down to 2. A total of 2 granny squares make up the front panel width. Multiply 2 by the number of squares needed to complete the back waist length which was 3. 2 x 3= 6 granny squares total needed for the front panel. Subtract 2 from this number (because we will be replacing 2 squares with 2 triangles for the armhole and neck shaping), 6 -2 = 4 granny squares needed to complete the front panel. Make 2 granny triangles to add the shaping for the neckline and armhole. 

Total of 4 granny squares and 2 granny triangles are needed to complete ONE panel.

Remember to repeat for the second panel.

I recently received this beautiful Darn Good Yarn Sari Silk Tote Bag made with recycled sari silk fabric. It’s my newest project bag. I have a lot of knitting bags and organizers but a few things I love about this one are:

  • It’s lightweight and has long straps so it’s easy to carry around
  • I love the print on the fabric it’s so pretty. You have the option to include a note with your favorite colors and Darn Good Yarn will try their best to send you a bag in those colors.
  • Sourced from recycled sari silk fabric making it an environmentally friendly product!

Now the most important question is: How many WIPs can it hold?

I was able to hold a total of 3 wips in this bag! The bag measures 13.5 x 14 in. which is pretty spacious! My wips consisted of one half-done rectangle wrap, a second wrap that I just started, and another medium-sized project with the yarn for each project!

If you’re looking for free crochet food patterns, you are in the right place! Although I have made other types of crochet amigurumi patterns before, I have never really designed any amigurumi food crochet patterns. That’s why I am super excited to be sharing this free Tunisian crochet pattern with you all!

Make sure you check out this super cute crochet food pattern for Saeed the Samosa

I have always been intimidated by crochet food amigurumi but I just couldn’t help myself with this idea! Ramadan has officially started and one tradition that really takes me back is preparing Samosas the same way my mom used to in preparation for Ramadan so we could enjoy them when we break our fast. That’s why I decided to make a fun pattern out of this simple Tunisian Crochet Samosa pattern and hence Saeed the Samosa was born!

Saeed means happy in Arabic and this little guy certainly makes me happy so I thought it would be a perfect name for him!

When I started writing this post I searched to see if a Samosa had already been shared as part of any crochet food toys free patterns and I couldn’t find one in Tunisian crochet. This is the perfect pattern to get started with Tunisian simple stitch!

Materials:

Yarn:

Paintbox Yarns Cotton Aran in soft fudge, 32 yards (Aran Size 4 weight; 1.7 oz./50 g, 93 yds/85 m; 100% cotton) and scrap yarn in black or red for embroidering the mouth. If you would like to embroider eyes you will need some extra scrap black yarn.

The Dishie cotton yarn in the colorway Linen and Black from We Crochet Official would be nice alternatives. Grab some Dishie yarn here.

Hook:

5.5 mm Tunisian crochet hook, check out my favorite Clover Takumi Interchangeable Set here, or grab a Chaiagoo straight 5.5 mm Tunisian crochet hook here.

Notions:


Yarn needle
Tape measure
Polyfil stuffing
Scissors
Two 12 mm Safety eyes

Gauge:

  • Gauge is 4 sts over 3 rows in Tunisian simple stitch for a 1 x 1 in. square.

Finished Size:

  • The samosa size is 5 in. long by 2.5 in. wide 

Pattern Notes:

This pattern is for a simple beginner-friendly Tunisian crochet Samosa. Saeed means happy in Arabic so I thought that would be the perfect name for this little guy because he makes me so happy! Samosas are an important food in my house, they take me back to my childhood when my mom used to make Samosas in preparation for Ramadan. I decided to share a cute amigurumi inspired by this sentiment as the month of Ramadan has just started! I’ve also included a rough recipe for the Samosas at the end of the blog post!

It’s the perfect beginner project for a cute pretend play toy for your little ones! Each Samosa is made with approximately 32 yards which means you can make 3 samosas from just one skein of yarn.

  • Pattern rows are Forward pass instructions.
  • The following instructions are implied: 
    • The loop already on the hook at the beginning of the row counts as the first st. 
    • Always Tunisian simple stitch in the last st of the row, being sure to work under both loops of the st.
  • Return Pass: Follow the foundation row and each row with the Return Pass in the same color unless a color change is needed.
    • Return Pass Instructions: Ch 1, *yarn over, pull through two loops; repeat from * until 1 loop remains on the hook.
  • NOTE: Your Samosa may be slightly smaller or bigger depending on your tension (how tightly or loosely you hold the yarn)

Free Crochet Food Pattern – Saeed the Samosa Pattern Instructions:

Ch 15 

Row 1 (Foundation Row): Pick up a loop in the back bump of each chain. Complete normal RetP. (15 sts)

Row 2: Tss across. Complete normal RetP as above (15 sts).  

Repeat Row 2 until the piece measures 9.5 inches. 

Bind off and cut yarn leaving an 18 to 20 in. tail. Turn the piece over with the wrong side facing. Take a small ball of Polyfil stuffing and roll it up and place it at the bottom of the rectangle along with any small tails. With the Polyfil inside, fold into a Samosa shape as seen below.

Assembly and Final Touches

Sew the bind off edge to the Samosa to close. Weave the remaining tail through the Samosa to the top corner and sew along that edge. You should have a little pocket. This is where you will add safety eyes and embroider the mouth. Take the safety eyes and place them near the third row from the top aligning them together. Take the scrap piece of black yarn and embroider a mouth making a V centered between the eyes.

Looking for a free crochet food pattern?! Try your hand at this cute Tunisian crochet Samosa pattern with a full video tutorial!

Samosa Recipe:

Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef
1 medium-sized onion chopped
1 tbsp ginger garlic paste
1 tsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp turmeric powder
1 1/2 tsp salt or to taste
1 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp garam masala
A handful of cilantro chopped
TYJ Spring Roll Pastry Sheets
1/4 cup flour with enough water to make a sticky paste

First, heat 2 tbsp oil in a deep pan or pot and stir fry your chopped onions till they are slightly brown, add ginger garlic paste and fry for a minute. Next, add the ground beef and the rest of the spices, cilantro, and stir fry the beef until it is brown and thoroughly cooked.

The pastry sheets you use will make a difference in how crispy the samosas are so make sure you grab these exact spring roll pastry sheets. Trust me, my mom has tried and tested others but this one is the one that always comes out perfect.

First, cut the stack of pastry sheets in half and wrap half of the stack in a damp paper towel until you’re ready to use it. Then, immediately use the other half working quickly so the sheets don’t dry up and add two tablespoons of the ground beef to the bottom of the sheet and wrap as seen in the tutorial video! Seal the edges with the flour paste to close the samosa.

Stick them on a tray or plate and place them in the freezer for 20 minutes. Remove and make portions to freeze. Take out as needed and either fry or bake the samosas (400 F for 20 minutes). This year I have been air frying them at 390 F for 15 minutes and they are turning out perfectly crispy!

I hope you enjoy making both types of samosas! Both methods are quite addictive!

Watch this space because I have a whole culturally-inspired crochet food set planned inspired by the foods we break our fast with! In the meantime make sure you check out my other fun Tunisian crochet patterns such as the Tunisian Football Stuffie or try out the Bubsy the Bunny pattern!
