Third Eye Applique

A third eye, all-seeing eye, evil eye or cyclops eye applique with four variations: no eyelid, with a sewn-on pompom trim, with a plain eyelid or with a chakra rainbow eyelid.

Use to make a quirky festival top, a boho cushion cover, a t-shirt for yoga class or an unusual tote bag by sewing on and/or sticking on with Bondaweb.

Using Ricorumi DK yarn and a 4mm hook makes an eye about 26cm wide and 13 cm tall with no eyelid, or 17cm tall with an eyelid (101/4 x 5-7 inches). To make a bigger or smaller eye, use thicker or thinner yarn and/or hook.

This pattern contains colour crochet charts, written instructions using both American and British terms and photo tutorials on the magic loop, changing colour, standing stitches and invisible joins.
