Rustic Boot Cuffs

Hey everyone!

Today, I’d like to share my latest design for these simple, yet stunning boot cuffs!

When I set out to design them, I knew that I wanted something a little feminine and a little country or rustic, but I had no set design in mind. And it was actually when I was shopping for buttons and sifting through spools upon spools of ribbon and trim, that the style was decided — A beautiful umber colored wool, buttons that looked like wood grain and an antiqued somewhat lacy trim.

Aspen Tweed Cowl

Well hello there!

Last week I released the pattern for the Aspen Tweed Hat that included the directions for a messy bun style hat or a beanie with or without a pompom. You can see the hat pattern at the link.

This week, I decided to make a matching cowl and, since I had so much leftover yarn, I also created some matching mittens! You can see the pattern for the Aspen Tweed Mittens at this link.

Hi everyone!

I’m back again with another winter wear set for women! The Aspen Tweed Hat can be seen at this link and the Aspen Tweed Cowl can be seen at this link. There’s nothing like looking coordinated with a matching set.

The Aspen Tweed mittens were crocheted using Lion Brand Yarn Hometown USA, which is a super bulky size yarn and I tell you what — these mittens are so thick and warm! I’m incredibly happy with how well this entire set turned out.

Hi everyone!

Today I have a super cute and warm hat pattern for you. As some of you may already know, if you’ve followed my blogging journey for a while, I live in Pennsylvania and holy moly, do we have some cold winters. I’m sure it’s nothing compared to those living north of here, but it’s still pretty frigid most of the winter. And being January, we’re in the thick of it with no sign of spring for a few more months.

Let me tell you, crocheting is certainly a useful skill up North. We never have too many hats, scarves, mittens, sweaters and blankets!

Well hello there!

May I present the Jasmine Scarf!

This scarf is unique in that it is a cross breed between the classic infinity scarf and the popular triangle scarves that I’ve been seeing around the web. I may not be the first one to create one of these, but I sure am proud of my version!

Hello friends!

Well, the end of the year is upon us once again, but instead of feeling sad about it, this year I feel hopeful and excited for the year to come! Starting this blog and getting to share my crochet patterns with you all has been an amazing experience so far. I’m so blessed to be able to earn a living doing what I love and I am grateful for each and every one of you for your support!

To celebrate the coming new year, I designed this sparkly little gem of a cowl to wear to the party we attend every year at our neighbor’s house. No drinking and driving for us!

Hanging Mittens

Well hey there!

I just had to share this pattern for these adorable little hanging mittens!

There are actually a ton of uses for them. Off the top of my head, I came up with gift topper, gift card holder, hanging decoration for home or office, tree decoration, fill them with candy for small children and I’m pretty sure the size is great for the tiny hands of 1 or 2-year-olds as actual gloves!

Snowy Sky Shawl

Snowy Sky Shawl

Hi everyone!

This triangle shawl has such a unique look to it, especially with the color changing yarn I used. I just couldn’t stop looking at it while it hung on my mannequin. There’s an amazing texture present that I love. It almost looks like a layered shell, but it isn’t. Does that make sense? Ha!

Anyway, I’m thrilled with how it turned out and it’s going to a very special person!

Winter Wishes Wrap

Winter Wishes Wrap

Hey there!

The other day I was thinking…there are so many holiday parties coming up. What am I going to wear?

Sometimes you want to dress up, buy a pretty new outfit or dress and do you really want to cover up with a bulky coat? I know I don’t. On the other hand, I don’t want to freeze either! Dilemmas, dilemmas.

So I came up with the Winter Wishes Wrap!

Wavy Shells Mittens

Hey there!

Last week I released the Wavy Shells Beanie that you can see at the link and I didn’t want to release just a hat and nothing more. I love sets and recently I’ve been doing hats and scarves. Well this time I wanted to do something a little different.
