Hello everyone, I’m back again this week! I completely forgot that I had a second post or else I would have posted this on Tuesday. 😀 But no worries. Today’s post is for a Charity Scarf Drive hosted by Blackstone Designs. Many great and talented designers have participated in the weeks past and this week …
Hello and welcome to all!This year I’m a contributing designer to HodgePodge Crochet’s 2016 Sampler Afghan CAL and as I’m seeing so many different and gorgeous patterns, I got inspired. I thought this would be a nice idea to turn into a scarf or a cowl, as I prefer. This post is also my first …
Hey, look! It’s already February. Of course you know it’s February, it just sometimes makes me stop and be surprised that time seems to just go by so fast. Here I am, again, with a fun Valentine’s Day pattern for you. I’ve been playing around with graphs and such, to make pictures and what not in …
Does anyone else feel a bit relieved that the holiday season is nearly completely over? Of course New Years is still coming up, but the rush for gift making is over in my house. It’s so nice to not have to work, I worked a lot last week and I’m rather tired, and just sit …
Another week and another review of a yarn I got from Red Heart. Last week was kind of a rave this week, I can’t say I loved this yarn as much, but it’s a yarn with a personality all its own. Honestly, it was so outside my wheelhouse that I didn’t know what to do …
So, full disclosure, this is my first review of yarn and the first time someone gave me something to review! I’m super excited and I had a ton of fun with this yarn. I was sent Red Heart Medley, in the color Garden, and this was the stand out of all the yarn I received. …
In the weeks past I talked about how excited I am for Fall and for Halloween and that really hasn’t changed. However… while I was thinking about a pattern for this week I kinda wanted something, not Fall related. Sure, next week I’ll be back with a Halloween pattern (in fact I’m watching The Addams …
On Saturday I started figuring out what pattern I wanted to post for today’s free pattern. I narrowed it down to the pattern for my pumpkin earrings and an old pattern I designed a few years ago, the Katie Cowl. Now, I can’t wait to begin posting Fall patterns, it’s really my favorite time of …
Originally today’s free pattern was going to be the tea cup applique that shared on FB/ IG a little while ago but this last weekend I was updating a pattern I wrote a couple of years ago, the Amanda Scarf (which is on sale until August 28th for $1.99), and re-testing it. I never got around to …
Update: You can download this pdf here. So, I’ve been having tons of fun with super fine yarn, mostly because it’s light weight and looks so delicate when worked up (like my Imogene hat). However, because the weather here took a very cold turn, I pulled out some heavier weight yarn and made another nice close fitting cowl. …
