Hexagon Pattern with 3D Flower

Spike Cluster Stitch Purse

Next, here is a project that will take your spike clusters to the next level. You'll need to get 3 colors of yarn, a zipper and some fabric. This purse is large-ish, at approximately 10″ x 4″. Thus, it is of perfect dimensions to find all those annoying little “noseeums” that are forever getting lost in the folds of the handbag..

Iris Stitch In A Rectangle

"The Iris stitch is another one of my favorite stitches. It has a flower-like look, it creates a “Holey” fabric and still has more of a modern look. It's a great stitch to use in blankets or as a border. After designing the Iris stitch in a square, many have asked me if there's also a way to make this stitch in a rectangle, so I had to make another tutorial! This pattern enables you to decide the dimensions of the rectangle by changing the number of the initial chains. "

Essa Blanket Square

"The Essa is an 8″ crochet blanket square with a cozy texture. This simple crochet square features a two row repeat so it's an easy make! This blanket square crochets up as a nice solid fabric, so there aren’t too many holes. I love how the stitches pop in the white yarn. The Essa is a worsted weight blanket square so this pattern will make a great stash buster. This square is part of the Cozy Fall Charity Make Along hosted by Knitting with Chopsticks and Noor’s Knits. "

Iris Stitch In A Square

The Iris stitch is another one of my favorite stitches. It has a flower-like look, it creates a “Holey” fabric and still has more of a modern look. It's a great stitch to use in blankets or as a border. The stitch consists of dc’s and chain which makes it very easy and is what makes it also works up really fast, which is a bonus!
