Do you ever look at some yarn or crochet thread in your stash and wonder what you should make with it? I certainly do! May years ago, I bought 4 balls of Curio, a size 10 cotton crochet thread from the Knit Picks website. I absolutely LOVED the colors that I picked out and the…
Who doesn’t love a new baby blanket? I certainly do! These baby blankets have been finished for many years (8-9 years to be exact), but I never got around to publishing them (what can I say except life has been busy)! It’s about time that they’re available for you to make! The first is my…
After too many months of not blogging, it’s time I got back up on the horse! So here goes. If you’re anything like me, you absolutely ADORE reversible crochet projects, especially scarves! I hate having a wrong (ugly) side on my scarves, so I designed some scarves that are reversible (and a reversible baby blanket,…
Have you tried Overlay Mosaic Crochet, but can’t quite get it to come out right? Well, there’s a fascinating crochet technique called Woven Crochet. It can look a lot like Overlay Mosaic Crochet, but it’s worked completely differently (and it’s quite fun)! It’s also reversible!!! I was first introduced to this technique last year when…
Introducing my Majestic Butterfly Afghan! This afghan was previously published many years ago by Annie’s, but has since been retired. I recently received the copyright back to this beauty, so I wanted to make the pattern available to other crocheters instead of it never being available again! This beautiful afghan is made in the Intarsia…
If you love Mosaic Crochet as much as me, you’ll really enjoy learning this new technique! I was introduced to this technique a few years ago by a lady named Stephanie on Ravelry. She had an afghan that was crocheted by her great grandmother in the 1980’s. She couldn’t figure out how it was made…
Have you seen the new Red Heart All in One Granny Square yarn? It changes colors at set lengths for each round of a 5-round granny square! I LOVE this idea! I had to buy a skein to try it out for myself! And it works great! Now there are only 2 ends to weave…
I’ve enjoyed doing the Thermal Stitch for quite a few years now. Last month, Heather (on my YouTube channel) asked if I could make a video showing how to do a potholder in Thermal Stitch with 2 different colored sides. I thought about it and I’ve been playing around with it for a few weeks…
Do you enjoy crocheting decorations for holidays? I certainly do! I’ve got a brand new crochet pattern for an Easter Egg Potholder for you. This potholder is worked with 2 pieces: a front and a back for double thickness. Using worsted (#4) weight cotton yarn, it’ll keep your hands and fingers protected when removing a…
It’s been quite a while since I’ve done a blog post, a new pattern or a new YouTube video. I’ve been quite busy with everyday life, including my oldest son’s wedding in August, my mother-in-law’s funeral, also in August (she was 93, so she lived a long, full life) and the birth of 2 grandsons…
