Kids Cowl


Our little ones need to keep their necks warm too! Simple V-stitch cowl, you can really make this as long and as wide as you want, and what suites your little one. It's really easy and fast to whip up, make one in every color!










Circle Vest


This crochet circle vest is fun, funky and really easy to make. You can go with a solid color or go crazy and use up old yarn like I did. It's a perfect little shrug for the colder months. 

Here are a few patterns I found on Pinterest





Crochet Collar

This crochet collar is absolutely adorable and a perfect way to add some flare to a simple dress or shirt. I found the pattern HERE. Its a free pattern which makes it even better!

Wall Hanging


So apparently wall hangings are all the rage. I saw a few ideas on Pinterest and loved them. If you knit or crochet you know you have a LOT of extra yarn lying around. This is a perfect project for all your yarn scraps. I used a piece of drift wood from the northern California coast. I have an obsession with drift wood. Every time we go home I bring home a bag full. In my opinion there is always a use for it somewhere in your home decor.  If you don't have drift wood any piece of wood would do, a branch or dowel. I love all the different color combinations you could do. I am excited with how this first project turned out and can't wait to think up new color schemes.

Crocheted Christmas Stockings

I sewed some stockings a few years back. I packed them into a box with some christmas tree stumps that I didn't let dry. The next year I opened up my Christmas box to find everything covered in mold. It was terrible. Luckily we had only been married a few years and had only accumulated a small amount of Christmas decor. Lesson learned, let tree stumps dry before packing away. 

So this year we needed stockings. We have a fireplace in our new house, and it would look naked with out stockings. I saw a few ideas online for crochet/knitted stockings and I was hooked. I followed this pattern from Red Heart Yarn. 


I loved being able to pick colors for each of us. The pattern comes in three sizes, I used the medium and it came out perfect. 

I also made a yarn tassel garland with some left over yarn. Such an easy and inexpensive craft to add some festive decor. The garland was a perfect addition to the popsicle snowflakes I made. The snowflakes were simple too. (popsicle sticks, hot glue, & paint). I got the idea from Pinterest of course.
