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

Bernie Sanders
I’m not trying to get political, but I love Bernie Sanders. The other day, I had a nice laugh scrolling through the abundance of memes that have been circulating around. 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)

Has it really been three months since my last rag doll pattern!? It doesn’t feel that long because I’ve had these on my mind quite often. I have so many ideas and I still haven’t forgotten all of your wonderful suggestions for future animals. Once I get an idea in my mind though, I have… Continue reading Rag Doll
Geometric Squared Pouch
I’ll admit right now that naming my patterns is not my strong suit. The name for this piece came to be because I was inspired by my Geometric Zip Pouch. I love that this design echos my other bag, but this time, the triangles “square” up to each other - hence my very original name.… Continue reading Geometric Squared Pouch
