Snowflake Monday
Pattern updated as of 23 January 2011
If there's anything in Colorado we have more of than mountains, it may well be
mines! Colorado has a rich history of mining.
Mount Antero, standing at 14, 269 feet, is the 10th tallest peak in Colorado. Because
of the high concentration of state gem aquamarine, a dirt four-wheel-drive road
climbs nearly to the summit of this steep monster. Antero is famous for the vast
collection of gemstones within its soil, and it is blanketed nearly head to toe with

assorted mining claims.
This peak was named for Ute Indian Chief Antero. South of Mount Princeton and
Buena Vista, it is one of 14 14ers in the Sawatch Range. No, that's not a misprint! An
annual footrace traverses this chain of mountains, aptly named Nolan's 14. The 88- to
106-mile race sees more than 44,000 feet of elevation gain in 60 hours or less. Fewer
than 10 athletes have completed Nolans 14. Nolan's 14 is the only place in the world
where runners can ascend 14 peaks reaching more than 14,000 feet in so few
(few?!?!?) miles.
I have not yet climbed Mount Antero, but it's on my list. Because that rough dirt
road scales this peak, I have wanted to climb it on my mountain bike for more than a
decade. I've given it one try, and I didn't even reach treeline. Now, married to a
powerful mountain biker who demonstrates tons of patience with my slow pace and
lack of climbing stamina, perhaps 2011 will be my year.
One of Antero's most popular trailheads is near a ghost town named St. Elmo. St.
Elmo also is an electro-luminescent corona discharge in the air during thunderstorms.
This week's patterns include a treasure box in honor of the gems still hidden atop
this mountain and a bonus pattern named after the ghost town that sits in the
shadow of Mount Antero and which burned in 2002.
You may do whatever you'd like with snowflakes you make from this pattern, but you
may not sell or republish the pattern. Thanks, and enjoy!
Finished Size: 6 inches from point to point, 4 inches tall
Materials: Size 10 crochet thread, large bead, size 7 crochet hook, empty crochet

At some point during climbing,
whether on foot or on a bike,
I've learned to stop thinking
about the force that's pulling
me down, and wonder about
the force that's pulling me up.

Ch 82. Measure to make sure this chain will fit around empty crochet thread
cardboard spool. If your tension is different than mine, you may adjust by making
less or more chains, keeping a multiple of 2. Being careful not to twist, sl st in

Ch 96. Measure to make sure chain
fits around duct-taped end of
empty crochet thread cardboard
spool. If your tension is different
than mine, you may adjust by
making fewer or more chains,
keeping a multiple of 6. (If 6 chains
are too much of an increase or
decrease, just even out the
stitches in Round 2 by skipping 1
double crochet instead of 2,
evenly spaced, such as one on
each side if you need to adjust by
2 stitches or a third of the way
around if you need to adjust by 3 stitches, etc., to make up for the shortage or
overage. These tiny adjustments will not show in final project.) Being careful not to
twist, sl st in starting ch.
Round 1: Ch 3 (counts as 1 dc), dc in next ch and in each ch around. Once again
making sure not to twist work, sl st in 3rd ch of starting ch 3.
Round 2: Ch 1, 1 sc in same ch, sk 1 dc, 3 dc in next dc, ch 3, sl st in top of dc just
made, 2 dc in same dc (picot shell made), sk 2 dc, *1 sc in next dc, sk 1 dc, 3 dc in
next dc, ch 3, sl st in top of dc just made, 2 dc in same dc, sk 2 dc; repeat from *
around (total of 16 picot shells if you ch 96 at beginning); sl st in starting sc; bind off.

See that hideous red spot on the bag? Don't let any colors on the grocery bag show.
I should have chopped the color off. During the stiffening process, the color
transfered to the snowflake. Aaargh!

I've gazed at Antero from afar many many times. One of our most secret
camping hideaways has a view of it, and we set up our La Fuma campchairs,
put up our feet, and watch its light change over the day. I'm already looking
forward to visiting that spot next summer!
Great photos!

Your treasure box with the architectural snowflake base and lid is just plain
magnificent and your mountain pictures are so crazy beautiful. Great tutorial!

I love your Elmo Snowflake Pomander, and can hardly wait to make it. I have
made some of your snowflakes so far, and currently making the Rose
snowflake.

I just finished making the treasure box from acrylic yarn and a size I hook,
since that's what I had available. It turned out looking amazing and I love it :)
Thank you so much!!

Anonymous, I'd love to see what you've made! I'll bet the treasure box in yarn
is wonderful!
