Well hello there!

This is my very first C2C (corner to corner) project I have ever done and I am so proud of how it turned out. I’ve done three other graphgans before — you know the kind that are done with only single crochets — so I was already used to changing colors and whatnot. I have to say, though, that I’m very impressed with the C2C technique! It’s much faster than the graphgan and easier to follow. I can’t wait to make a few more!

Hi everyone!

I’m back again to share the matching towel to the Ocean Waves Washcloth!

This towel is a little wider than the washcloth and I also designed it so that it is incredibly easy. There are no increases or decreases like in the traditional towel topper patterns with only a single button. This is completely beginner friendly and it will look like you bought it!

Fireside Throw

Hey there!

I’m so proud to share my project in Sewrella’s Designer Program — The Fireside Throw!

When Ashleigh first contacted me to ask if I’d like to participate in her Designer Program, I had one of those, “OMG, she knows my name!” kind of moments. Ashleigh is one of the rock stars of the crochet industry and I had been following (and drooling) over her work for quite some time.

Well hello there!

With summer quickly approaching, it’s almost time for spending more time outdoors and less time inside crocheting. Personally, I crochet year round, but I prefer smaller projects when it’s warm outside. Who wants to sit under a huge heavy blanket in the summer? I sure don’t.

That’s why I have designed the cutest little pattern for you! It’s quick, beginner friendly and oh so useful! You can never have too many washcloths/dishcloths.

Chick Applique

Hey there!

Recently I discovered my love of making appliques! I love being able to use my creativity to create a form of art and the fact that my medium is yarn…that just blows my mind. I used to draw and paint when I was younger, but I never imagined I’d be able to turn a drawing into something tangible.

I can’t wait! I’m so ready for flowers, short sleeves, open windows and sunshine. I’ve always felt like Easter was the unofficial kickoff to Spring. It’s just that this year, Easter is very early. Here in Pennsylvania, we’ll be dealing with the white stuff for several more weeks.

Happy almost Easter!

Isn’t it fun to decorate the eggs at Easter time? My boys always have a blast making a huge mess all over my kitchen table, dye and vinegar everywhere! I don’t mind though. It’s fun just watching them have fun.

Spikes and Stripes Potholder

Well hello again!

I’m here today to share my latest design with you…the Spikes and Stripes Potholder.

Mostly everyone has to work with hot items in the kitchen at some point. College kids (Man, that microwave makes things hot! 😛 ), kids learning to cook, you or someone you love cooking your nightly meal—whatever the case may be—someone will still need a good potholder to protect their hands. Even my husband will take something out of the oven for me every once in a while, and why not have super cute and functional tools to tackle the job?
