Utilitarian creativeness  

7 days ago by Bug

I like to make things that are useful and not just decorative. I knitted this washcloth for my kitchen in the tuscany colors I’m going to decorate my Italian Kitchen with. I got the cotton at walmart on a large cone spool for a knitting machine. I don’t remember the color name but it was something b ...

Making of the 'Queen' with Afya Ibomu  

34 days ago by Momwithahook

This is a really fun pattern and a very useful wrap for those with long hair and/or dreads. It is very simple to wear as well. I used Lion Brand Cotton Ease yarn for this in 'Cactus'. I chose this yarn because it is washable, soft yet not bulky like the cotton 'Kitchen' yarn. I've already washed thi ...

Square 99 (Bear Face)  

38 days ago by don_mae

Wednesday, May 27 A bear face square?? Cute but… This will probably be the only square in my 101 Crochet Squares book that I won’t complete. I like it but unless I make about 49 more, what will I do with it. So… here’s my solution. Make the bear faces and put them on other things. Like this little g ...

Square 11  

38 days ago by don_mae

Wednesday, May 27 I like the outcome of this square. Square 11. Even with all the color changes. Pattern instructions were easy to follow. I did have one problem trying to get the center on all sides to line up with the other double crochets. They tended to dip. I think an extra chain stitch here wo ...

Swap Potholders Are Done  

45 days ago by don_mae

Thursday, May 21 I am so glad I signed up for this. My first crochet swap. A potholder swap. The rules were simple enough. Make five potholders of same design, same color or different colors, all to measure between 6-12 inches length or diameter. For over a month I have been experimenting with patte ...

Crochet Square 15 (New Look For Granny)  

48 days ago by don_mae

Monday, May 18 If you like making granny squares but tend to stick to the traditional way, then this square is for you. It still has the classic look but without the big holes throughout. A foundation row is made between each round for the stitches to hold onto thus reducing the unsightly gaps. It m ...

Crochet Square 16  

50 days ago by don_mae

Friday, May 15 Here’s the latest square. Square 16. Finished it today. When I get 20 of these squares done, think I will take a break. Maybe work up a few of them. My stack of UFO’s is getting higher and I am itching to “make” something. This square didn’t take long to make though the next one I wil ...

Crochet Square 14  

51 days ago by don_mae

Thursday, May 14 Another square finished. Square 14. I was delighted to find this design in my 101 Crochet Squares book. I had seen it on other sites and loved it but wasn’t sure how it was made. It is really quite easy. Each little ruffle part has 5 double crochets. Skip a stitch, 5 dc, skip a stit ...

Crochet Square 10 (Never Give Up!!)  

57 days ago by don_mae

Friday, May 8 OK, this Square almost didn’t get made. It seemed easy enough in the photo in the pattern book but everyone knows looks can be deceiving. I first tried several days ago. And then again a day or two later. I still could not figure out what the instructions were telling me to do. I have ...
