Dreamcatchers are said to act as dream filters, allowing only good dreams to reach the sleeper! Dreamcatchers are usually made from wood and string or metal and stones, but it is not uncommon to see a piece that was made using a crocheting technique. In fact, crochet dreamcatchers can look quite stunning, especially if adorned with beads, stones and feathers. They can also be a very thoughtful gift for a collector or someone who believes in their mystic properties. Making a crochet dreamcatcher isn't the most difficult of tasks, but having a pattern to work from is always helpful, especially for inexperienced crocheters. Using a pattern to make your piece may not result in a unique final product, but it will definitely hurry the process along.
