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!

Granny Stitch Poncho

This crochet project was fun to make.  I don't know what took me so long to think of it.  If you have made anything with the granny stitch, you are going to find this a breeze to make.  I have a feeling that this is going to get a lot of wear, once the weather cools down, of course. 
I'd say that this pattern size is written for 3-5 years.  The pattern can be easily adjusted, though.  The collar of the poncho can be made larger or smaller by adding or subtracting from your beginning chain.  Of course the length is easily adjusted by adding or subtracting rounds.

 You may not copy, change, or sell my patterns in part or in whole.  You may sell your finished product, but I ask that you give credit for the pattern by linking back to me.

 Child Poncho Ages 3-5

What you will need:
K hook
Bulky Yarn (5) Lions Brand Jiffy
Scissors

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!
