A Yarntastic Life!
First of all, you can get your copy of the free Infinity Scarf pattern HERE. View the Moogly video tutorial that helped me figure out the Tunisian stitch HERE. There comes a point in almost every season, when I know I am ready to learn a new stitch. When the desire of learning something new hit's me, ...
Walking through shopping centers can be so inspiring for us who know how to crochet. It is really hard to let myself spend money on pricey machine crocheted items when I know I can make it myself. That being said, I have spent the last year searching for the perfect pattern to open my crochet world ...
The Baby Clutch Ball by Petals To Picots is so much fun! It reminded me of the Awesome Crochet Find from my beginner crochet days! It's one of those crochet patterns that is so exciting to watch come together! I am so proud of these and I am so excited to be gifting them to my cousins ...
My latest order is for a dear friend who wanted to welcome her new baby home in a custom made crochet hat. As soon as she messaged me on Facebook, I knew the Crochet Newborn Knot Hat by Repeat Crafter Me would be perfect! I told her I could put any applique on the hat that she ...
A friend of mine brought me some towels and told me I was free to use my creative side to do whatever I wish! That is one of the best things a customer can ever tell me. 🙂 Here are the links to my patterns or the patterns I reviewed to complete this order. Pineapple Towel Topper Bounding ...
While looking through Towel Hanger crochet patterns, I decided on this one because not only does it look simple, but it doesn't call for a hair tie. Hair ties are very hard to keep in my house. Between my 4 year old playing with them, me throwing them from my hair in the middle of the ...
I love the shape and decreases in the Bubble Towel Top designed by Kate Wagstaff! It makes the towel drape perfectly. We all love free patterns, but this one is well worth the $1.95 it costs. If you have done your own searching for towel toppers.. there really isn't a lot of high quality and well ...
The customer who I am making the towel toppers for, requested for some to have a scrap yarn look. I thought this free crochet pattern for the Textured Towel Topper ( >LINK HERE<) Â would be perfect! I loved the pattern! The size is ideal to me. The pattern is really quick, even with changing so many ...

My stepson, Brennan and my daughter, Ella have WILD imaginations. They defeat giant trolls in the back yard, adventure through wild jungles in the living room and slay dragons on the staircase. I remember being young and having such a strong imagination. When using it, it feels like the world around you really changes... and your ...
This square is a perfect example as to why I love following crochet patterns. I learned a new technique! I would have thought this look was created with front post stitches... boy was I wrong! So easy, so fun, so pretty! The Bailey Square (<-link) by Kim Guzman is great for everyone. Simple color changes can ...
Most of us in the crochet community has noticed the beautiful flower bud crochet patterns by Dearest Debi over the last year or so. I have been waiting for an excuse to work one up since her first Flower Bud Stitch tutorial. What better excuse (for me) than decorating a tree! I am a nature lover! ...
I was searching for some three inch square crochet granny patterns when I discovered the Colorado Strong Granny Square Crochet Pattern (<-pattern linked) designed by Posh Pooch Designs. With her pattern, you can actually make this square much larger but I decided to stop after round 4 because it measured exactly 3 inches like I needed. Why ...
I love it when I find an excuse to my DK weight yarn! Although she mentions that you can use any weight, the fact that she used DK made me run to my DK drawer with excitement. It's the little things in life... right? 😉 The Majestic Bloom Granny Square (<-link) was really easy for me ...
I am thrilled to share the link for the Hydrangea Shrub Crochet Square! And, I am so excited to finally have the chance to learn the Bullion stitch! To be honest, I never thought I would be able to pull it off!  But this square has the perfect amount for someone like me who fears pulling through too ...
The Lacy Flower Crochet Granny Square (<--pattern linked) is the first of the series that is to come. This square is going to look beautiful wrapped around a tree! As soon as I started hookin' the square up, ideas started popping into my head like a spreading wild fire. You can make beach bags, market bags, ponchos, beach ...
I often see/hear people say "I do not follow patterns." I know there are many reasons a person will say this.. but I want to share with everyone why I choose to follow patterns. Sometimes I feel like I can make anything that I put my mind to... and at this moment, I still feel this ...
Before I move on from Easter projects, I wanted to put all the duck and bunny patterns I have crocheted into one post. Each one is listed below. Click the name of the pattern to be directed to the post. Next, I will be starting a series of crochet square reviews. I will be adding each ...
I decided to follow the free "One Hour Bunny Hat" (<--link to pattern) by Moogly - because I wanted a quick and simple pattern to add to my Easter crochet stash... well, my daughters. 😉 After working up the base of the hat, Ella asked me if the ears would stick up like a "real bunny". ...
