Cool 1 Skein Scarf


This is a free pattern from Joann Fabrics. I worked it up in Red Heart yarn and I still have enough in the skein to crochet a matching beanie. That will be my next project.


Latest Hat Creation


This hat was a purchased pattern. I used Bernat (green) and Red Heart (ecru) and followed the directions for the toddler size. Instead of using an I hook, I used an H. Guess what? It still came out adult size. Next time I will try using a G hook with 3ply yarn to see if I can get the size to come out correctly. I really loved the pattern - very easy and looks really cool, so I will definitely experiment with it.

Lacy Hat & Mittens


I just finished this set! Very cute and it was a pattern in "Mother & Daughter Hat & Mittens". It took about 5 hours to finish the hat and mitten set. This will be a Christmas gift for one of my nieces so I made the toddler size.

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.






New Ribbed Hat!

This is another hat that I finished a few weeks ago. The instructions are almost complete and ready for my favorite testers!




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!
