Boxy Potholder I made myself something! As much as I love the crochet hot pads I made for my kitchen a while back, I realized quickly they weren’t quite thick enough to grab stuff out of the oven. But because they’re round, folding them narrowed the area I could safely hold before coming too close...
Off the Shelf Do you have a stack mid-finished crafty projects that seem to just get bigger on its own? Or is that just me? Well, I’m intent on getting all my works-in-progress done! Starting with my unfinished Star Wars Temperature Blanket projects. Time to tackle the WIPs! Temperature Blanket First, allow me to explain...
I’m back with more LGBTQ+ Pride flag coffee cozies! In December, I posted the first Pride Cozies patterns here, so be sure to check that out if what you’re looking to make is one of the Rainbow Pride Flag coffee sleeves. In this post, I’ll be including the cozy patterns for the: ((Note: When I...
Drawstring Book Pouch Back with something new! It’s been a minute, and lots of life stuff has certainly slowed blog activity lately, but I’m back with a few projects I’ve had in the works to share here. Up first in this post, I’ll be sharing the Crochet Drawstring Book Pouch pattern. It’s big enough to...
Rainbow Pride Cozies In my purse, I always carry at least three coffee cup sleeves. And it’s a pretty good bet that at least one of them is going to be themed to one of the LGBT+ pride flag colors. This is one of the crochet patterns I have made the most in my years...
Fast and Simple Crochet Beanie Pattern It’s cold! At least it is for me lately. This was all the excuse I needed to pull out my Fast and Simple crochet beanie pattern and whip up a couple new ones. This is not a challenging pattern to make, and with the consistent increases, it’s easy to...
Granny Squares One of the first things I ever learned to crochet–perhaps one of the first things many of us learned–was a granny square. Mom taught me two ways to make one: a one-sided square, where all rounds faced the same direction, and a two-sided square, where rounds alternated which direction they faced. This makes...
Reverse V-Stitch Cowl Digging through old patterns again, I found this one of a crochet cowl and decided to share it here. It’s warm and cozy and easy to customize, so it’s one of my favorites to give as gifts. The stitch I used for this, the reverse V-stitch, takes a little practice to get...
Chunky Crochet Half-Stitch Cowl I needed a quick project! So I grabbed an old crochet pattern for a chunky cowl. It’s been a while since I’ve whipped one of these up, but spotting my old one in the closet reminded me how easy it was to make. Crocheting this cowl was a fast project. I...
Crochet Field Scarf Another day, another scarf! With the weather turning and the holidays giving an excuse to make stuff, I sifted through my patterns for another quick and cozy scarf. This pattern stitches up fast, especially once you get a rhythm going. And with rows being only the width, each one is short enough...
