The Conversation Hearts Graph is perfect for your Valentine! Four hearts in different colors spell out words similar to the nostalgic candies I remember from my childhood. Did you have a favorite flavor or quote?

Crescent Moon Blanket
The Crescent Moon Blanket is a corner to corner (C2C) afghan pattern that is an easy/intermediate level pattern because of the moon’s swirls. But, I’ve also included the graphs for this pattern with the swirls removed for an easy level pattern. You can choose which you would prefer to make! Or crochet both. I don’t judge! 😉

This Scarecrow Afghan pattern is so much fun to crochet! I love the bright colors and the pumpkin he’s holding…so cute! What’s not to love really?

You know, I see so many patterns out there in cyberspace for washcloths and dishcloths, but not nearly as many patterns for hand towels and dish towels– especially Corner to Corner (C2C) towels. Why is that?
Well, that is something I’d like to remedy!

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!

Love/Luck Reversible Sign
This past February I went a little nuts designing and creating crocheted decorations for Valentine’s Day. I was trying to build up enough inventory for when I opened my Etsy shop and launched my blog. I had the idea to make the word “Love” into a vertical hanging sign. And how cute to make the “O” a heart instead!
So I sat down with my graph paper and graphed out a heart design. With my favorite crochet hook, I grabbed some Red Heart Yarn that I had left over from another project and got to work. I wasn’t sure how it was going to turn out, but I kept going anyway. The final result ended up being a really cute wall hanging decoration!

Hope…
It stirs so many emotions in me. Never give up. Don’t lose faith. Dream big. Now dream bigger! Everything will work out in the end. (It usually does too!)
This inspiring little word needed a place of honor in our home. A reminder to never give up hope. Something that my children would grow up reading every time they saw the tags.
They’ve watched just how hard their mom has worked for months and months to prepare for this blog. And hope is what brought this dream of sharing my patterns with the world into reality. I hoped, I worked and I achieved. That’s the kind of example I want to set for them. If I can do it, they can do it too!
