We have been so excited to be asked by Michaels to celebrate National Crochet month by making a project with beautiful yarn from Michaels.com!
I used a new version of Bernat Baby Velvet called Baby Crushed Velvet. I love the tie-dye look of this yarn! I used Hannah's Modern Hearts baby blanket pattern to celebrate my love of crochet.
I've made a daisy blanket for our very own book and I couldn't be more excited to share this project with you!
I've always had a dream to publish a children's picture book and luckily I have a very talented sister who is an artist and helped me make my dream a reality.
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.)
Ahhh! Oh, how my obsession with gingham is continuing and I'm still so in love! I used the corner to corner stitch to work the center portion of this crochet gingham heart blanket and then added 6 rounds of a block stitch for a giant border.
Over a year ago, my dear friend Mandy found out that her colon cancer returned and not in good places. It decided to take up residence in her liver, spleen, and lungs. So, I did what a crocheter does, and made her a blanket.
Hello, Hannah here, I had a lot of leftover colors from my colorful velvet twist headbands, so I decided to make a fun colorful baby blanket! When I first posted a work in progress shot of this blanket on Instagram someone said it reminded them of a chandelier and we couldn't think of a better name for it, so that's what we're calling it!
I love making this pattern so much! I first learned it five or six years ago and named it a Modern Granny since the little clusters are diamond shape and seemed modern-looking to me. I had no idea at the time that so many of you would love it too.
Neutral colors and a timeless design come together to create Nana's Favorite Baby Blanket. This classic crochet afghan pattern is a perfect crochet pattern to make for any new mom, including yourself! It's essentially a very large, multicolored granny square, so its construction is simple. The size of this particular baby blanket is classified as a "lovey," which means it's pretty small (it's approximately an 18 inch square), but it's super easy to adjust the pattern to make it into a larger blanket by simply continuing to work around the square.
Bust through your yarn stash with this Mindless Crochet Scrapghan pattern. The repetitive nature of this particular crochet afghan pattern makes it the perfect project to work on as you sit and catch up on your favorite TV program. You'll need 4-5 skeins of worsted weight yarn in a single color to complete the pattern, plus a lot of scrap yarn in various colors too add some contrast. Fringe is an optional finishing touch.
