Sometimes it's a pattern or stitch that inspires m Sometimes it's a pattern or stitch that inspires me but then there are times when it's all about the colors...and boy was this one about the colors! 🌈⁣ We've been redoing my daughter's room and I, of course, had to make her something. After playing around with a few different pattern ideas, I decided to keep it simple and go for a combo of single crochet and bobble stitches. We all know I do love a good old bobble. 🤣 ⁣ The pattern is so easy to customize to fit any color scheme or holiday too. Pick colors that match your rug. Try red, white, and blue for the 4th of July. The possibilities are endless! Go to the blog link in my bio to get the pattern for yourself!
Happy St. Patrick's Day! 🍀☘🍀 I finally had Happy St. Patrick's Day! 🍀☘🍀 I finally had a chance to work on a little something for myself and now I think I need a gnome for every holiday. . . . Pattern: @windingroadcrochet
Happy Friday everyone! I know most of us in the St Happy Friday everyone! I know most of us in the States are gearing up for Thanksgiving, but I’ve been working my hands like crazy coming up with new Christmas designs. The first is the Argyle Crochet Christmas Pillow. While I’ve made mine in traditional Christmas colors, the pattern can easily be customized to fit any color scheme. The free pattern is now available on the blog (link in bio). 😊
This about sums up yesterday. If you saw my story This about sums up yesterday. If you saw my story from yesterday you will know I had to frog 30 rows of bobble stitches to fix two stupid stitches...two! 😭 How I missed those two stitches I'll never know. Maybe one shouldn't crochet without their readers on. LOL 🤓 Oh well...at least it's done now and I can move on. What is the biggest thing you've had to frog before? 🐸
I had to repost because the photo posted weird.. l I had to repost because the photo posted weird.. lol We are a college football house...especially the @oregonducks. 🦆🦆🦆 After watching the great game vs. Ohio, I was inspired to make my husband a new beanie for this season.  Now to finish off the top and gift it to him. GO DUCKS!
Spooky season is slowly approaching, and I couldn’t be happier! We are definitely a Halloween loving house and⁣ I can’t wait for all the witches, bats and spiders, oh my! While the husband⁣ (and HOA) kindly ask that I not decorate outside until Oct. 1st (party poopers! LOL), that isn’t going to stop me from making new things to add to our⁣ Halloween décor. Introducing the Striped Pumpkin Halloween Pillow. The free pattern is now live on my blog [link in bio].
Boho décor has made a major comeback in the last Boho décor has made a major comeback in the last few years and I couldn’t be happier. 😁 As a kid born in the late 70s, boho décor reminds me of my childhood and gives me all the feels. 😍⁣ I needed a couple new pillows for our couch and wanted something neutral but not boring and this pillow fit the bill perfectly. ⁣ The combo of bobble and single crochet stitches gives the pillow a great texture. This is one of my favorite things I’ve ever made, and it looks awesome on our couch. The free pattern is now available on my blog [link in bio]. I hope you like it as much as I do! 👍😀
You ever have one of those patterns that, on paper You ever have one of those patterns that, on paper you weren't so sure about but once you've worked it up you LOVE it? 😍 This is definitely that pattern for me. This is a departure from my usual, as its made with only one color. 🤪 What it lacks in color it makes up for in texture. I can't wait for you guys to see it! The free pattern will be up on the blog tomorrow. I hope you guys love it as much as I do. 🙏🥰 . . . #crochetersofinstagram #crochet #crocheting #bohostyle #bohocrochet #crochetersofig #bigtwistyarn #crochetgirlgang #crocheteveryday #crochetaddict #crocheted #joannfabrics #crochethomedecor
My daughter has been wanting mommy to make her a u My daughter has been wanting mommy to make her a unicorn pillow for the longest time and I finally had the time to do it. This is the “Enchanted Dreams” Unicorn Pillow Cover. 🦄 The front cover is made with the bobble stitch, which gives it a great nubby texture. I made this color combo to coordinate with her bedding, but you can make it in so many cute color combos. One of my testers @crochetisntforgrannies made a fabulous aqua/purple combo that I’m obsessed with!😍😍😍 You can find all the details for the pillow on the blog (link in bio). And I want to say a special thank you to my awesome testers @crochetisntforgrannies @bidzmom @crochet_4_fun for helping make this one of my favorite patterns. #crochet #crochetersofig #crochetersofinstagram #yarnlove #bigtwistyarn #handmadewithjoann #crochetaddict #crochetaddict #crochetlove #chain8designs #unicorndecor #unicornpillow #unicorncrochet kkk

I think we all have that one stitch that we find o I think we all have that one stitch that we find ourselves going back to time and time again...for me, it's the waistcoat. 😍 I don't know if it's because I learned to knit long before I ever learned to crochet but there is just something about this stitch that floats my boat. I decided to create a tutorial to pass on all that I've learned while making countless projects. Give this easy stitch a try...you'll be hooked 😂. Link in bio.

Happy Saturday everyone. I hope you are having a Happy Saturday everyone. I hope you are having a wonderful weekend! 😁⁣ ⁣ Around here we are gearing up for our annual Friendsgiving weekend🦃🦃🦃. Our oldest and dearest friends live a couple hours from us so we don't get to see them as much as we would like. This weekend is something we all really look forward to. Bring on the TRIFLE🥩🍰! [If you know, you know. LOL 😜]⁣ ⁣ After posting the newest headband yesterday (the Christmas Unicorn🦄) I have come to realize that I REALLY like making these headband. Of course, on a weekend where no crocheting will be happening, my mind is swirling with new headband ideas. I just want to sit down and play...not clean toilets or wash sheets!⁣ ⁣ I guess the mundane nature of cleaning is good for my creativity. I can tune everything out and let my mind wander while I scour my shower. (I'm a poet and didn't know it. 🤣)⁣ ⁣ When do you find that your creative juices really flow?⁣ ⁣ #crochet #crocheting #crochetersofinstagram #crochetersofig #chain8designs #crochetgirlgang⁣ #yarn #yarnaddict #cleaningisfun #crochetlove #crochetaddict #crochetgeek
Christmas is a magical time of year. 🎅 Do you k Christmas is a magical time of year. 🎅 Do you know what is even more magical? A Christmas unicorn!!!! 🦄 Move over reindeer...unicorns are the new magical Christmas beasts on the block!⁣ ⁣ My 5-year-old is OBSESSED with unicorns...like squeals every time she sees anything unicorn obsessed. In honor of her love of the magical horned creatures, I created this cute headband. I can't wait to watch her prancing through the Christmas tree farm, living her best unicorn fantasy. 🎄🦄🎄⁣ ⁣ The Christmas Unicorn Headband pattern is now on my blog. (link in bio)👍⁣ ⁣ While you're there, also check out my other holiday headbands...the Holiday Mouse 🐭 and Festive Reindeer 🦌.
