"Gnomes have been one of my mom's favorites since I was little. On vacations to the Oregon Coast she would tell use she could see gnomes in the trees and tell us stories about them. She really made them come to life. Since gnomes are popular lately I thought it would be fun to make one into a luminary cover. It slips over a mason jar and I put a battery operated tea light inside. It could be used for treats or gifts too. "

"Hi there my fellow crocheters. It's nice to be back to share another crochet video tutorial. Today I'm gonna share with you how to make a simple yarn bag. This pattern is so easy to make and perfect for beginners. I only used double crochet stitches in making it. It is an easy project and it works up fast. I really like this bag because i can now crochet wherever I want. Grab your yarn and hook and lets make a yarn bag!!! "

"This Classic Coin Purse crochet pattern also includes a tutorial on how to sew a kiss clasp to a crocheted piece. I hope you love the vintage vibe as much as I do! Make one of these for each special person in your life with this easy-to-follow pattern. I am in love with the vibe these vintage kiss clasps are putting off. The little lotus beads are just to die for when paired with a similar colored yarn!"

"I thought the criss crossed diamond stitch pattern was appropriate for the pattern/texture of a pineapple. This little bag is excellent for using as a soap cozy (gift a homemade soap with it!), candy/favor pouch (for a tropical party!) or as a gift bag (gift with some Summer themed earrings). You'll need about 70 yards of worsted weight yarn. I used Lily Sugar n Cream for my bag. If your bag will be a soap cozy, you want cotton yarn, but as a gift/favor bag, any yarn works. For reference, I had my bag ready in about an hour."

"Crochet a simple and minimalist tote bag. This is a quick tote to crochet and doesn't use much yarn (about 140 yards of bulky weight yarn). The tote will hold all your necessary items (wallet, phone, credit cards, hand sanitizer and more). Beginners will love this tote as the pattern calls for only basic crochet stitches: chain, single crochet and half double crochet. Grab a skein of bulky weight #5 yarn, an L hook and a couple bamboo handles - enjoy!"
