If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make your swatch, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

Just because the weather is warmer doesn’t mean we have to ditch our scarves! I love wearing scarves as they can instantly add pizazz to an otherwise boring ensemble. So, I love this crochet skinny scarf to wear in the spring and summer and liken it to a crocheted necklace of sorts. I based this scarf off patterns from JoAnne’s and Creative Jewish Mom, but had to change the pattern quite a bit with the yarn I used and because I changed colors three times. You know me – I like bold, bright colors, so the colors in this scarf might be a be much for your mom.

Chevron baby blanket with a straight edge eat, knit & diy. Whenever I hear that friends of mine are having a baby, I start thinking blanket. The idea of making something soft and snugly for this tiny, new person is too compelling to ignore. Plus, since you have 8+ months to make it, it always seems like a manageable project(yet somehow I always end up knitting or crocheting frantically, racing against the due date). My friends with amazing taste are expecting their first baby this April. They did the nursery in muted shades of gray with green accents, and chevron stripes. So I knew I had to make them a chevron blanket, in green to match the nursery (and also because they are letting the gender be a surprise.) I found some great chevron type patterns on the web, but they all had pointed ends (this comes from the striped pattern).
