Clover Amour Crochet Hook Set Giveaway
I recently got myself a set of these lovely Clover Amour Crochet Hooks. I’d heard so many great things about them and had been dreaming of one day owning a set.

He loves bright colors, cars, trucks, building, running, jumping, all the typical boy things so I came up with this bright orange Construction back…

How to Crochet the Fast-forward Chevron Purse
This week I decided to make myself a new purse. I’m quite picky when it comes to bags so designing and making my own allowed me to customize it just the way I wanted. I had something fun yet practical in mind. It needed enough room inside for my things without being enormous. I wanted a long strap since I…
