Emoji Scarf

Well, it is hilarious to me that the 90's trends are back, but I see my kids (a tween and a teen) really loving it, so I decided to make something that'd appeal to them, so I created this Emoji Scarf. My daughter helped me choose the faces and draw them.

What do you think?

The pattern is available in my etsy shop and ravelry store.

Kids & Crochet

 My friends always ask me how to teach their kids to crochet, so I wrote my top 5 tips here for you!

Happy Crocheting!

Waffle Hat Crochet Pattern

 

I have a problem, I am a collector of "On" sneakers. I have 7 of them as of right now, but I am eyeing a few more and they may or may not be in my shopping cart, just waiting for me to hit the "completer your order" button.

If having a sneaker obsession wasn't enough, I make a hat to match each sneaker... because you know, you have to go out with your outfit coordinating somehow... LOL

Anyhow, I am not the first person in the world to create a pattern for a Waffle Hat, but this is MY version of it, I love the stretchy band and the oversized fur pompom on top.

The pattern is available in my etsy shop and ravelry store.

Peaks & Valleys Throw

 It seems like I am on a blanket/throw rampage, but seriously, blankets and hats are my all time favorite things to crochet.

I've wanted to design a pattern to use the Skein Tones by Lion Brand for awhile and this is what I came up with. I love how the colors all go together and it turned out to go perfectly with my living room furniture and decor!

Field of Hearts

This is the "Field of Hearts" throw. The inspiration for this throw came to me one night, watching a family show with my husband and kids, my daughter was snuggling with me and wearing a cute pair of pajamas that had a little drawing in between bears that made me think of this.

I decided to use this deep forest green and a bright white to contrast and show the pattern sharply.

Color Fiesta Throw

Well, I can't hide it, I love color and it shows!

The "Color Fiesta Throw" is made with lots of vibrant colors that contrast and make the tapestry work pop.
