I found a really pretty pattern on *Yarnspirations the other day called Botanical Crochet Dishcloththat I thought would be perfect as a fall hot pad. I think these are always nice hostess gifts to bring along with me to dinners or get together with friends or family so I'm always making a few in my spare time.

Crochet Striped Heart Hot Pad
Making quick and easy hot pad (pot holders some might say) as gifts have been so fun. We like to make them to go with the Daisy Farm Kitchen recipes that Annie is making too. (She is posting all of our grandma's delicious recipes, look under the Recipes heading under Menu.)
Lemony Lime Citrus Square
Think of all the fun patterns you can create with this Lemony Lime Citrus Square. Using brightly colored worsted weight yarn, this free crochet afghan square pattern is perfect for summer, and would make a great summer granny square afghan. It's an advanced beginner crochet pattern, so just about anyone who's had a little experience with crochet patterns can work this up. It measures 12 inches by 12 inches when complete. This granny square would make an excellent pot holder for summer parties, or a nice crocheted afghan for a picnic in the park. The upside to granny square afghans is that you can work on them anywhere and them join them together at the end, making for a fully customizable afghan pattern.
Corner to Corner Coffee Granny Square
There's nothing quite like sipping your favorite brew of coffee while getting caught up on the news or gossiping with friends. The next time you sit down to sip a cup of java, consider placing your mug on the Corner to Corner Coffee Granny Square. Featuring an assortment of bright, vivid colors, the crochet granny square pattern is even big enough to double as a coaster for your coffee pot. The crochet corner to corner pattern is fun and easy to make and can be put together as a last-minute hostess gift before heading to your friend's house for brunch.
