You’ll be making 4 pieces and constructing them as the pattern shows, but, no worries, there are pictures to help you along. Merry Making!

You will love this rainy day rainbow drawstring pouch pattern. It is the first of five rainy day projects I have planned for this upcoming week. Each rainy day project can be completed in a day. The pattern is worked in the round from the bottom up. The bottom circle of the pouch is made in double crochet, and the top and sides are made in half double crochet.
This beautiful crochet granny square creates a thick, sturdy block that will make a warm addition to your next blanket or afghan. It is bursting with texture, and no two rounds are the same, making this a challenging, yet fun square to crochet. I used Red Heart Soft yarn because it has a nice drape, and feels amazing! You may substitute other worsted weight yarns, but you may not end up with the same effect.
A very easy crochet shawl that mostly uses V-stitches and a slight variation of it that I called V-puff stitch.The pattern is easy to memorize so you will not have to constantly look at the instructions, very relaxing!Accessible for beginners too. You can crochet the Proserpina V-Stitch Crochet Shawl with any yarn you like and the appropriate hook. If you use a much thicker yarn, your shawl is going to grow faster, so you will have to crochet fewer rows than the ones indicated in this pattern.For example, I crocheted one Proserpina Shawl using a cotton cake in Aran weight and a 5.5 mm crochet hook.

There is something timeless and classic about a good chevron blanket. I have made my Timeless Teal Chevron Blanket so many times for baby showers that I could probably crochet one in my sleep. This blanket is honestly a huge hit no matter what colour I make it in. I have even made it in colours that I wasn’t particularly drawn to and ended up loving it so much I kept it for my daugther. Using Bernat Blanket Stripes yarn, (my go-to blanket yarn) which is a super bulky, size 6 yarn, this blanket works up in a jiffy. I have made one in two evenings or about 6 to 8 hours.
I’ve been meaning to make a couple new crochet kitchen towels, but I wanted something a little less traditional in style. Having to constantly pick up the towels off the floor and wash them because they’ve slipped off the oven handle yet again, gets old in a quick hurry. After designing the Buffalo Plaid Kitchen Towel, I realized how much I loved the style and immediately started on the Farmhouse Striped Kitchen Towel. I hope you find that these towels will also make great gifts!
