Umbrella, parasol, sunshade … whatever you call it, it looks better in crochet! These crochet umbrellas might not protect you from the rain but they are the perfect creative project for a rainy day! They also work as shade from the sun, a cute addition to a costume or just decoration for the home.

Where do you get your umbrella frames? Having difficulty finding some
Where do you get your umbrella frames?
Hi I am writing an article about the use of crochet umbrella’s in weddings could you tell me when crochet umbrella’s became popular (in weddings) and how popular the making of crochet umbrella’s is? I hope you have the answers for me!
EliseMooijman That’s a great question!! I actually don’t have any info on the history of crochet umbrellas. I do know that they aren’t among the most popular items to crochet. The first time I did the roundup it was hard to find patterns or even examples of crochet umbrellas but this time was easier so maybe they’re seeing a comeback. I’ll let you know if I find out anything else and I’d love to know more about your article!!
I think umbrellas was most popular in the Victorian times. just my thought .
