The time has come! I hope you are as excited to get started as I am. A couple of things to remember before beginning: If you would rather have a PDF download or the entire pattern available right now, jump over to Ravelry and grab it!

Felix Blanket Remixed – Introduction
I can’t believe it’s finally time to share this project. It’s been such a long time in the making, both to conceptualize how it will all come together and to get everything written up. I also can’t believe I’m about to embark on a second crochet along (scrap-along). I am so excited and I hope… Continue reading Felix Blanket Remixed – Introduction
Textured Throw Pillows
I created these pillows for WeCrochet's April IDP Showcase. The request was for throw pillows using neutral tones and my mind immediately went to cables and texture. I love the finished result and think the neutral colors really showcase the beautiful design. These pillows make a stunning pair, but they also are interesting enough to… Continue reading Textured Throw Pillows
Rag Doll Cat
It has been so long since I released a pattern. I just got burnt out, I think. I was doing plenty of crafting, my crochet hooks were just collecting dust. A couple of times I got a small spark, but the idea never was enough to sustain my attention. And now it seems I am… Continue reading Rag Doll Cat
Robot Candygram
Did you guys know I have a lot of candygram patterns? Last year, I couldn't stop making these. They are such a quick make. I have had it in the back of my mind to make a couple new ones for this year, but time has been getting away from me and I cannot believe… Continue reading Robot Candygram

Have you noticed I haven’t been crocheting much lately? I am still crafting, though. I am working on TWO quilts, several embroidery projects, a quiet… Continue reading Bernie Sanders
Mini Dinosaurs (ornaments)
These dinosaurs were inspired by the abundance of felt dinosaurs available on Pinterest. I was so excited to make one, as we have some dinosaur fans in my house. I distinctly remember thinking, if I were to crochet something like this, it would take forever and so I decided to start yet another non-crochet project.… Continue reading Mini Dinosaurs (ornaments)
Polar Bear Gift Card Holder (Ornament)
I enjoyed seeing my penguin again so much, I felt inspired to make a polar bear. Much like my penguin, I recommend adding a ribbon so this cutie can be easily repurposed. And also like my penguin, the hats are optional. Yes, I said hats. I made a little hat for this bear and something… Continue reading Polar Bear Gift Card Holder (Ornament)
Penguin Gift Card Holder (Ornament)
First things first, this cutie is pictured in a Santa hat, but if you leave it off, he becomes a cute "thank you", "birthday", "just because", etc gift card holder. I recommend, if making him for the holidays, to attach a ribbon so he can serve as an ornament or adorn a gift after he… Continue reading Penguin Gift Card Holder (Ornament)
