Snowflake Coffee Kozie Applique

Another day, another crochet applique pattern.  :)  I love this one.  This one is quick and easy...only 3 rounds!
I attached mine to a coffee Kozie, but you could even crochet a few and add them to a cute Winter hat!

Christmas Tree Coffee Kozie Applique

Are you looking for a quick and easy gift to crochet?  This may be what you are looking for!  Kozies make a great little add on for any gift.

Slanted Shell Convertible Shawl

While out with the family I saw a woman wearing a gorgeous "shrug".  I noticed that it was buttoned, rather than sewn secure.  It dawned on me that the "shrug" could be worn multiple ways.  I thought about it and thought it would make a fun project to figure out. 
The stitch I used is similar to a stitch I saw on a friends baby blanket.  The stitch looks like the crosshatch stitch, or diagonal box stitch, though I did mine differently.  I just went from memory of what the stitch looked like and came up with a way to duplicate it. 
Here is a close up of the stitch:

This was a lot of fun to make.   I hope you enjoy it too!

My Favorite Elf Hat

This was one of the first items I made up on my own, back when selling was my focus.  I think it is still my favorite hat to make and wear.  I will be making a few new ones this year.  I have the pattern listed as child 3-10, though the hat easily fits me, as well.  Really I think it's more of a one size fits most.  Gotta love a mostly universal pattern!  :)

Look how little my girlie is, in this picture!  Picture was taken a couple years ago.

Snug as a bug in a shrug

Finally!  A crochet item that my daughter is actually wearing!!!  She is loving her new shrug.  The shrug is a great alternative to a jacket on those slightly chilly days.
I actually made this for my daughter in the early spring.  Going off of memory, I think it took only 1 skein of yarn. (98% sure)   I love one skein wonders!

Snug as a bug in her shrug.

This shrug pattern is written for a child size.  The arms are wide because my daughter doesn't like anything to tug on her shirt.  The arm width is actually a decent size for an adult.  The pattern is very easily converted to any size, just keep crocheting until the piece is the length that you need, to go across the arms and back.

Cozy Cowl

There is nothing that I love more than a super simple crochet pattern.  This pattern is exactly that. 
I made this cowl with Homespun yarn.  It is also extra wide, so when it is worn as a cowl it is super cozy and it is wide enough to pull over your head. 
 

Cowl worn like a hood.

It not only fits my daughter, but it also fits me.  Guess that is something else that I love, a pattern that is versatile enough to work for almost everybody!
Ok, onto the pattern.

Chunky Hooded Infinity Scarf

This crochet hooded scarf is one of my recent favorite projects.  I just love how it turned out.  It is so warm and cozy!  This would make a great Christmas gift! 
I used Yarn Bee Fleece Lite in Rustica.  The color is amazing and I love the feel of the yarn.  It works up really well.
I think I am going to have to make a second one because both me AND my daughter are going to want to wear it...once it finally cools down!

Small Halloween Treat Bags

This treat bag pattern was really fun to make.  The bags themselves work up in about 15 minutes, so this is a quick crochet project.  They take a little longer to finish if you want to add embellishments. (like the ghost face or vine)
As Halloween gets closer, I am going to put a little treat in the bags for my kids and hang the bags on their doorknobs, for a little sweet surprise.
Once I know how many kids are in my son's class, at school, I am going to make a bunch of the pumpkins for their Halloween party.  :) 


What you will need:
H hook
Ww yarn (orange and green for pumpkin and white and black for ghost)
Scissors
Yarn needle

ch-chain
st/st's-stitch/stitches

Tissue Box Kozie

School is almost back in session and that can mean only one thing....Autumn is around the corner!  Maybe that fact will make it easier to crochet in 100+ degree temps.
In celebration of Autumn's return being just around the corner, I made something pumpkin themed.  :)
This Tissue Box Kozie works up really quickly.  It is a great item for decorating your desk without taking up any extra space.

Summer's Night Infinity Wrap

Have you ever been to the store and seen yarn that you HAD to buy?  It doesn't happen to me very often, I can usually talk myself down from it, but not yesterday.  I am walking down a yarn isle, looking for yarn for a future project, when these vibrant colors catch my eye.  Without thinking, I put the yarn in my basket and continued on my way. 
What ended up in my cart was Yarn Bee Aurora Borealis Twist in Fruit Punch.  Even the name sounds fun!
These pictures don't do the colors justice.  It was hard to get my daughter to stay still for the pictures.  She was much more interested in playing!

I wasn't sure what I was going to do with it at first, but it hit me this morning....I'll make a wrap for my daughter!
I sat down with my hook and had this wrap finished in less than an hour!

Set of 3 Washcloths

Are you looking for something to make for Mother's Day?  What about a "pamper yourself" gift, or "New Mommy" package?  These crocheted washcloths would be a great addition! 

The washcloths measure between 8-9 inches square.  It will depend on your tension.  The patterns are easily adjusted.  If you would like them a little larger, you could increase your hook size or add a few beginning chains. 
Each washcloth has a different texture and stitch pattern.  I really enjoyed working these up. 


This first pattern is for a hdc v-stitch washcloth.

Ice Pop Kozie

My kids LOVE these!  They use them every time we have ice pops.  (which is A LOT, during the Summer)  I love them because I no longer hear about cold fingers.  Win-win. 
These are quick and easy to crochet up and the pattern is really simple. 
I have been making and selling these Kozies since I first learned how to crochet.  We probably have about 15-20 of them scattered though out the house.  :)
I have found that these Kozies fit well over a frozen go-gurt tube, too.  Another Summer snack staple, around here.

Adult Size Breath of Spring Hat

After posting the Toddler Breath of Spring Hat (pattern can be found here), I had a lot of requests for an adult size pattern, so here it is....FINALLY!  I know it took a while to get this finished.  I thought I would have been able to crochet this up sooner, but between wip's and family, it took some time.  Thanks for being so patient with me and understanding.  :)

Letter L Block

I was busy this weekend, making letter blocks to spell out my kids' names.  I am going to hang the blocks in their bedrooms.  I think they turned out really well.  :)
Here are a couple of pictures

Blocks in progress

Finished blocks (Thunder Up!)

Before the borders, the blocks measure 6 inches.  To border my daughter's, I did a sc around and then shells.  For my son's I did a sc and then rev-sc.
They work up pretty quickly and the project possibilities are endless.  Wall hangings, blankets, bags, banners...
I am so happy with how the blocks turned out that I am going to work up patterns for the whole alphabet.  :)  I am going to start with the letter L.  It is simple and quick.  I would LOVE LOVE LOVE some feedback about the pattern and how your blocks turn out.
I plan on posting about 5-6 letters at a time. I am working on the written patters for a couple more letters and should have the first batch ready this week.  :)

Hope you love it.  :)
