For those of you who want to continue crocheting in the warmer months, here is a lovely free pattern for your home, kitchen towels. Make them in 100% cotton for good absorbency and durability. I had made them for a friend a couple of months ago and found the time to write down the pattern only recently. The chevron used a combination of alternate double crochet and single crochet rows. This makes it a quicker version of the chevron stitch when compared to the tedious single crochet chevron.
Need a quick and easy project? Maybe a last minute gift for a coffee fanatic? This buttoned crochet cup cozy is a perfect last minute gift, stocking stuffer or just nice to have around the house. Plus it is a great way to use up leftover yarn. Lately I have been looking for ways to use up my yarn stash. Small projects keep my hands busy and make wonderful “just because” gifts. I just love this design because it works for any type of cup. Just slip the button loop through the handle of you mug and wrap the cozy around the cup, button it up and you are good to go. For a travel cup, button your cozy and slip it on the cup like a sleeve. It is just that easy.
You can never have too many dishcloths. The bold, berry colors of these crocheted dishcloths will add a pop of color to your kitchen. Follow this easy crochet pattern and make a pair for yourself or for the hostess they make great holiday gifts.
This super fun dishcloth has an amazing texture with the little scrubby bubbles! Mix and match colors to make your bubbles different colors or make them all the same!
Finally! The most requested pattern is finally available! This is the large cotton bowl cozy that fits bowls on average 7.5 inches. The original cotton bowl cozy is smaller and fits bowls around 5.5 inches. Use a self striping cotton yarn to create a lovely design and look to your cotton bowl cozy when you use the beautiful stitch used. This will make a wonderful gift to give anyone who loves cotton bowl cozies. A full Video tutorial is included also!
Sigh. Are you in love with this crazy thing as much as I am? Sometimes you just need to cast off the sails and do something that makes you happy just for the sheer joy of it. And my friends, THIS is it. Let me tell you about this little Marshmallow Mug Hat. The minute I saw them, I knew they were a perfect add-on Christmas gift for my daughter in law Katie. Katie loves all things cute and I knew these would be just the thing to make her smile. Let's get started on all this cuteness!
I love items that have double functions and add a touch of decor. When it's time to sit at the dinner table I simply drop my cell phone into the hand towel pockets and let it go. I know where it's at and I can hear it if I get a phone call, but the temptation to check social media is set aside. It also sets a good example for my little ones because when they are older I will be asking them to drop their cell phones into the hand towel as well.
Created to cover stools 13” in diameter and 1” thick. There is no gauge with this pattern because the size of your stool is subjective. As is the nature of crochet, the covers are very prone to stretching. The cover will look too small at first but with some muscle will stretch to fit tightly. Make one cover for however many stools you have. One skein I Love This Cotton should make two covers with some leftover.
I love being able to make things for specific needs. Recently I decided a hanging towel would work perfectly in our trailer bathroom. The only problem is there is a hook and not a bar to wrap a tabbed cloth around. I finished the top off with a D ring instead and it is just right. Of course I needed some cloths to match.
