Hot Cocoa Ornaments
/These cute little hot cocoa ornaments came from a Mary Maxim kit that my Mom bought a few years ago that I finally got around to crocheting. They worked up pretty quickly, but I don’t know if I’d make them again.

Read MoreI recently crocheted two Clippy tapestries using Stitchfiddle. The first version was a “regular” Clippy that Jeff used as an office white elephant gift. The second version was a strong Clippy based off some artwork that Jeff made for a shirt for his team several years ago that we gave as a birthday gift.
Read MoreI recently spotted a cute tee from Crochet With Carrie called the Zinnia Top. I decided to use it as a stashbuster project for some purple yarn that was sitting in my stash that has been discontinued at Michael’s.
Read MoreI recently completed the second prototype of my racerback dress after finally locating a vendor that offers fingering weight yarn that is actually in my area.
Read MoreI previously noted that I liked the pattern from my Empress skirt so much that I wanted to figure out how to do this design not in the round to make some placemats. I found an inset mosaic crochet tutorial from Bella Coco recently and whipped up a swatch with leftover yarn to see if I like it.
Read MoreAlanna of crochetwithalannamiall dropped the Aviva dress pattern last month. Her design is different than most other clothing items I have crocheted so far, but I’m pretty sure that’s the main reason I was so excited to get started on it.
Read MoreI like to sit on the floor next to the coffee table when I drink a hot beverage or eat, but sometimes it’s really uncomfortable to sit like that for an extended period of time. The boyfriend pillow that I took to college with me many moons ago worked as a floor cushion for a while, but I decided it was time for something new. I crocheted a spiral as a stash buster for some leftover mandala yarn that I didn’t know how else to use. Bonus: this cushion doubles as a cat bed (and by that I mean I crocheted this for myself, but my cats think I made it for them - shocker).
