After I’d finished making the CONSTRUCTION BACK PACK, I had some yarn left over. So I thought, hey, why not make a hat to match? Since I’d used cotton for the bag, and it’ll still be sunny here for several weeks, I thought a sun hat would be perfect. So, here it is, my Construction Sun hat. This hat is…
I love finding new crochet stitches to try and recently spent a lot of time mastering the diamond stitch. I’d been wanting to try it out for a while, then when I started working on my Linked Hearts Messy Bun pattern, and needing to add some texture, I knew it was time to try it out. I also went on…
This week I’m sharing with you this fun spider hat and web Halloween costume I made for my son a few years ago when he was just a year old. I wanted something unique, fun and comfortable for him to wear. I also wanted him to be able to wear it for a few years so I planned the design…
It’s finally finished! I’ve been working on these elephants for weeks! Here is my elephant parade sun hat!

Here is my pattern for a simple hat with no sew brim. I see a lot of patterns for beanies like this with the brim made separately and then sewn on. I wanted the stretchy style of brim but without the sewing. This pattern uses one continuous thread from the top all the way to the end of the brim.…
I recently finished working on a crochet pattern for this amigurumi puppy dog. I’ve written patterns before and posted some of them here on the blog but this is the first time I’ve written a detailed pattern and made it into a PDF that can be purchased and downloaded. These doggies are the perfect size for a child – my…
I really love crocheting amigurumi animals. A few years ago I found a free pattern online to make various animals including this super cute elephant. I loved everything about it, except the ears, so I designed my own and came up with what you see in the photo below. The pattern for the elephant can be found for free on…
