Blue Ridge Wrap Wrap yourself in the warmth of this pretty shawl wrap. It's an asymmetric shape with a zig zag edge for a refreshing and updated look. There are so many different configurations for wearing this wrap and I love the fun filet crochet section at the points too. I made it in a self striping Caron Cakes yarn, but it would look lovely in solids too. It is a generous 72" long so you can wrap it around for maximum coverage. ~ Don’t lose it, add It To Your … [Read more...] about Free Crochet Pattern: Blue Ridge Wrap

Free Crochet Pattern: Alpine Nights Beanie
Alpine Nights Beanie The Alpine Nights Beanie is the companion to my Alpine Nights Super Scarf. I really love how the waffle pattern looks so I decided a hat was in order! This one is fun, like the scarf it's easy and works up quickly.  I love the way the waffle stitch looks on the main part of the hat and opted to keep the band simple so it would not compete. I added a pompom, but of course you can leave it plain too. Mine is a beanie, but if you added a few more repeats  you could make it a … [Read more...] about Free Crochet Pattern: Alpine Nights Beanie

Free Crochet Pattern: Dragonfly Bandana Cowl
 Dragonfly Bandana Cowl This Dragonfly Bandana Cowl, as pictured, is made with just one skein of this beautiful Red Heart Boutique Unforgettable yarn, but the pattern can easily be adapted into a full-sized shawl. (Instructions for this can be found near the end of the pattern.) I estimate 3 - 4 skeins will be needed for a shawl. I've heard that this yarn can be hard to frog (pull out stitches) when a mistake is made. Due to the way the yarn is twisted, Red … [Read more...] about Free Crochet Pattern: Dragonfly Bandana Cowl

Free Crochet Pattern-X Stitch Challenge, Summer Wrap
Enjoy this month's X Stitch Challenge crochet pattern Summer Wrap This month's X Stitch Challenge crochet pattern was inspired by a shiver! Let me explain... It was a warm summer night, we went to dinner at a lovely restaurant by the sea without the kids (can you relate?). The reflection of the flickering candles shimmered on the water, the music played softly in the background, the food was delicious and the wine crisp and satisfying. The conversation tantalizing, and then, it … [Read more...] about Free Crochet Pattern-X Stitch Challenge, Summer Wrap

New Crochet Pattern – Outdoor Splendor Hat and Cowl
***** Introducing The Outdoor Splendor Crochet Pattern Clearly I love crochet, but I will admit I don't always love those holes created by double crochets and even half double crochets, and they allow too much cold to get in! I've been playing with different stitches that produce a more solid fabric and knit look. I think I've achieved that with this set!   The hat comes in sizes from newborn to adult. I added a bow for the girls, but it looks great without for the boys too, … [Read more...] about New Crochet Pattern – Outdoor Splendor Hat and Cowl
