Free Crochet Pattern & Yarn Review – Abby’s Poncho
Abby's Dolly & Me Poncho was inspired by this lovely young lady with her big smile and bright eyes. The poncho is loose fitting and has a drawstring neckline closure to fit a wider size range so it can grow with your little lady. I made this one in three colors in honor of Valentine's Day, but I think it would look wonderful in solids too. Can't you envision it as the perfect cover for an Easter or Communion outfit? The lacy design is a simple three row repeat that works up … [Read more...] about Free Crochet Pattern & Yarn Review – Abby’s Poncho

How to Make the Cord In order to start … [Read more...] about Tutorial: Making a Cord

It is said that necessity is the mother of invention, well that's true for the Snowy Day Hat. Let me explain... we woke up to about 2 feet of snow in our little corner of New York this morning, and my husband and son dutifully went out to shovel us out. They donned their warm hats (made by yours truly) and headed out. I took one look at my husband and gasped! His hat barely reached his ears!! Turns out, the 100% wool hat I'd made him last winter, somehow got thrown into the wash and … [Read more...] about Free Crochet Pattern – Snowy Day Hat
