Silly Hats

-

 

Way too much silly fun! Child size (on the left) and teenager size (on the right), which fits me just perfectly. 😂 I do plan on completing the set, and get the adult size on this roster. Meanwhile, these pieces deserve a little showing off. 😎 I'm going to enter this one in the state fair this year, and just see if I can't win a blue ribbon for this blue silliness. 😍 I absolutely love this whimsical pattern, and I plan on making several more of these hats, in different sizes and various color schemes. Thanks to Annie's Attic for posting this pattern from Snappy Tots.


Here's a whole folder of colorful fun: Silly Hats

Yes, that's me. 🤩 Having way too much fun wearing a hat for kids. 


Polka dots and ruffles! What a great pairing!

Peachy Purse

  I'm completely in love with the newspaper , Crochet Nation . 😍 I made this little peachy purse starting with their pattern instructions for the "Fringe Clutch," issue 2, page 4. With a few of my own experimental modifications. Because, you had me at fringe. 😄 But, then I decided it was not enough fringe. 😎 Thank you, Crochet Nation , for the inspiration, and for being awesome. 😘 As you can see below, and in the Peachy Purse folder, my final product is just a rough draft. It needs some blocking, and next time maybe some closer attention to stitch counts, plus I think a little bit more fringe. 😆 Still, not bad for a quick whip-it-up piece that is just cute as a button and sweet as a peach.  I am obsessed with fringe'y purses. Here's a whole folder of Dazzly designs , with all their silly sparkle and fringe'y fun. I love playing in the Dazzly space. (Thanks, Jean, for introducing it to me!) Because I love thinking about crocheting a real world version of ...

Almond Butter

  I absolutely love how pretty this little scarf turned out! It is just so sweet and simple, I want to make a million more just like this . 😄 I love everything about it: the color is so natural, the shape is sturdy but soft, and the whole look and feel of it is practical, pretty, and just plain fabulous. 🤩 Nothing fancy here, just my same fave simple mesh pattern, that I first described here: original post from the mists of time . Not too big, and no fluffy ruffle, just a bit of easy fringe, and a wonderful earth-toned color that sometimes looks toasted golden, and in certain light looks almost creamy. I love it when a simple color isn't so simple. 😍   I've had a long term love affair with earth tones, and I'm obsessed with natural colors, and I will never stop feeling passionate about these delish flavors. 😆  Carmel Mocha Chocolate and Wine Earth Tones Sand Sparkle Comfy Cozy I thought that Almond Butter is the perfect name for this color, although "honey whea...

Holiday Yarn Pile

  A labor of love. I tried and tried, and tried again (and again, twice) to make this work. In two locations, three different geometries. A love-hate relationship. I had to give up. Let it go. I cannot make a Christmas tree out of my yarn. But I can keep dreaming. 😂 The good news is, I have a fantastic "yarn pile tree skirt scarf thing" here, and some day I may figure out how to actually use it as a yarn tree skirt. 😋 Christmas Tree Skirt I have a long love affair going with Christmas fun! 😍 And it's only December 1st right now, stay tuned. I'll soon be adding to this colorful list: Candy Cane Ruffle Centerpieces Wintergreen Winter Mint Blue Christmas Candy Snow Snow Day
