Lacy Scarf & Hat


I absolutely love this hat and scarf - the purple and beige is very eye-catching. It is a Christmas present for my nephew's girlfriend and it is absolutely perfect for her! The scarf pattern was a free pattern and the scarf is extra long and you can wrap it around your neck or up over your head. The hat pattern is my own design with a v-stitch to match the scarf.


It is crocheted with Vanna's Choice purple and beige. There is enough yarn left to make a pair of mittens to match or make 2 more hats. I bought the 7oz skeins at Walmart for $6 each.

Another New Hat! Basket Weave Design - A Lot of Fun!

It is a little difficult to see this pattern with the variegated yarn. I am working on one with a solid color so the pattern will be easier to see.





Great New Easy Cable Hat!

This is a very easy cable to learn. It is a little tricky, but after the first cable you are sure to have conquered it. Amy & Jenn? Are you ready?

I used Red Heart Super Saver for this one and it took about 2 hours to create, but I was writing instructions at the same time.






My First Original Hat Pattern!


This is my daughter Amy showing off the hat she made from my very first pattern. My niece Jennifer has also test the pattern for me. I will be selling my patterns for a reasonable price when I have finished setting up my web site.
Thanks to Amy and Jenn, I have the best testers out there!

Weekend Crochet


It was a crazy, busy, busy weekend! I managed to finish several hats including the one above. The pattern for this one came out of "Crochet For Babies" by The Needlecraft shop. I used Vanna's Choice yarn and followed the instructions for size 2. Mine came out large enough for a teen/small adult. I usually use a hook one size smaller than the pattern, but for this one I didn't and I am still happy with the results. I will probably try a lighter weight yarn and smaller hook the next time. This was a fun pattern! Check out my latest crocheted creations in My Crochet Slideshow!
