This dishcloth is worked using the intricate looking crunch stitch. Yet, it is actually super easy to do because it requires only the slip stitch and the half double crochet to create a fabulous texture that is great for scrubbing and washing. Plus, it's extra-large and takes an hour or less to work up! Whip up a bunch for your kitchen, bathroom, or even give them aways as gifts - they make great Christmas presents!
This adorable yet fierce nordic gnome is the perfect kitchen / bbq / man cave accessory! Perfect for the gnome lover! A hidden 3” ring is crocheted to the hanging tab and then sewn inside the helmet so that the towel is removable for easy washing. Works up quickly in scrap amounts of yarn - either acrylic or cotton medium 4 weight yarn. Nose, horns, helmet, helmet band and hanging tab are crocheted separately and then assembled and sewn together at the end. A quick little project that would be a great addition to a craft fair as he is sure to get a lot of attention!
This crochet pattern for the beginner linen stitch coaster works up quickly and it is a wonderful way to practice. If you are new to crochet, then this simple pattern is for you. This crochet pattern is chocked full of crochet tutorials to help you master this project. There are video tutorials for crochet stitches, crocheting over yarn ends, color charts, as well as, some photo tutorials. Further, there are other crochet project ideas using this crochet stitch. Today, I used yarns that had a bit more earth tones in them. This pattern will lend itself well to both a solid color or variegated yarn. The coasters have been made with just one color of yarn, as well, as altering a few of the rows of color to change up the look. When crocheting coaster, I find that cotton yarn works the best. It is sturdy and washes up well too.
The Shamrock Crochet Coaster Pattern has been so successful I thought I would create a post telling you how to take the same pattern and make a shamrock crochet potholder. And also, we will be using the same yarn weight as before. Sounds impossible? It's actually quite simple and fun. Keep reading for a video on how to do this. While the three leaves of a shamrock stand for faith, hope, and love, the fourth leaf is luck. I hope luck finds you, and this crochet coaster is a reminder to appreciate all the luck that comes your way.
Bright, fun accent pieces are a great way to add to your home decor. Make them yourself with colors to match your style, and they really add a personal touch.
I LOVE the scrubbies that are made from net but it hurts my hands to work with the netting so I designed a scrubbie to hold nylon net scrubbers. There are lots of patterns that crochet around the net. They are wonderful, but I usually buy the dollar store packs of scrubbers and they fall apart quickly. I wanted something I could keep using and just replace the nylon scrubber. Materials Cotton yarn in one or two colors of choice G Crochet Hook Yarn needle, nylon scrubbie
