Puppy Love Messy Bun Beanies

November 13, 2025 0 Comments

My final completed projects for 2025 were several Puppy Love Messy Bun Beanies. I crocheted these beanies by following the Puppy Love Heart Slouchy pattern by Whistle & Ivy, but instead of closing the top, I added a drawsting to make it a messy bun/ponytail beanie. These hats are really fun to make, especially since you can have a blast crocheting the hearts in so many fun color combinations.

Purple Cupcake Scarf

September 24, 2025 0 Comments

Hello! It's been a while, but I am still here! Today, I'm sharing my most recent creation. I was asked if I could make a cupcake scarf similar to the one Kimmy Gibbler wore on Full House. I hadn't made a cupcake scarf in years, so it was fun to make one again. I'm thinking about making more cupcake scarves in different colors soon. The other cupcake scarves I've made are my Crochet Carrot Cupcake Scarf and a Chocolate Cupcake Scarf. (I did not follow or write a pattern for this scarf.)

Easter Bunny Gnome Scarf

Since I've been making gnome scarves for holidays like Christmas, Halloween, and St. Patrick's Day, I decided that I migh as well make an Easter themed gnome scarf. As with my other gnome scarves, I created this scarf by following the Fall Gnome Scarf pattern by Heidi Yates/Snappy Tots and made some modifications. This pattern is so fun and can be made with a variety of color combinations.

Long Tail Snowman Scarf #2

March 27, 2025 1 Comments

This winter we got a little snow at the beginning of February, and the kids missed a whole week of school.  The snow inspired me to create another Long Tail Frosty Snowman Scarf. I made a Long Tail Frosty Scarf (pattern by Snappy Tots) a couple years ago using one of my favorite I Love This Yarn colorways called Cloudy Sea, which has been discontinued.  So this time, I made one with I Love This Yarn Day Dreamery. I found a couple skeins of Cloudy Sea in my stash, so I do plan on making another scarf in that colorway... eventually. 😁 It is now Spring... kinda... We're just rainy over here!

Crochet Christmas Holly Scarf

Welcome to the December Sustainable Craft Challenge Blog Hop. This month's theme is Last Minute Gifts, and I like making handmade crochet accessories for friends and family instead of buying fast fashion pieces. I hope they love and enjoy the handmade gifts and keep them for a looooooooong time. I like to make items that are so unique, so they'll never go out of style. 😁 I knew the perfect pattern to create a really quick Christmas themed scarf. The Christmas Holly Leaf Scarf (pattern by Celtic Knot Crochet) was the first project that popped into my head, and I knew it would also be a great project to use up some of the green yarn in my stash.

Winter Star Ornament

Welcome to the November Sustainable Craft Challenge Blog Hop. This month's theme is Christmas, so I decided to crochet a Christmas ornament using yarn from my stash. For several years, we've had a Seattle Seahawks themed Christmas tree, and I think we're going to continue that tradition. So, I decided that my new ornament must be crocheted in Seahawks colors, dark blue and green.
