By Lisa Gutierrez on 04/01/2008 **I thought this was obvious, but apparently not: PLEASE OH PLEEASE do not use any of my photos without my permission! I’m a nice person, so if YOU ask nicely, I’d make a consideration. PRINTER-FRIENDLY version link at bottom! I’ve received many messages via Ravelry about these slippers. Crocheted Mary Jane Slippers (women’s large–9.5-10) Materials: worsted weight yarnH-hook2 buttonstapestry needleyou’ll also need some yarn in a contrasting color. First, start with 8 DC into a circle. see the little tail on bottom? after cinching, slst into the top of the first DC, ch 2. [See THIS POST, if you need more information about the beginning round.] This is what my piece looked like after round 4: Work 2 rounds even (NO INCREASING). Now, we’re going to be working back and forth in ROWS. Keep working back and forth over these 23 stitches for 12 rows. This is my half-way mark: On row 13, DC into first 10 stitches, then DC 3 tog: Here goes! SC into same spot.

CRAFT Pattern: Bunny Hop Slippers Thrummed Bunny Slippers in 3 Adult Sizes By Nikol Lohr These slippers are soft as a bunny, thanks to their thrums — unspun wool knit right in for a warm, cushy, fleecy lining. They’re also quick as a bunny! Knit in bulky yarn, they have the same stitch count as your average worsted hat. Worked up quickly in economical ($5/100g ball) bulky wool, they’re a recession-busting and adorable last-minute holiday gift. And you can always omit the “bunniness” if your subject isn’t silly rabbit material. Aside from the cush, these slippers have a great fit and actually stay on your feet, thanks to the heel shaping and wide button flap.

Choosing a Fiber Light, fine, bouncy fibers like Merino, Bluefaced Leicester (BFL), Corriedale, Rambouillet, and down wools make the best thrums (bypass the stronger, less-crimpy fibers like Lincoln or Wensleydale). Break (do not cut!) Materials Turn work so RS is facing you.

Mini Mario Mushroom Amigurumi « Amy's Odyssey The mini mushrooms in the world of Mario are tasked with many things. The little red ones have the special job of helping Mario and his friends grow bigger and stronger to assist them on their adventures. However, not all the mushrooms are sure of their fate. This mini Mario Mushroom is questioning whether it is really his destiny to help people grow large. He is very grateful for my hospitality and has shared with me the secret of how the mini mushrooms are created. My patterns are written down as I create my amigurumi, but let me know if there is anything missing. Techniques You will use the basic amigurumi crochet techniques: magic circle, slip stitch, single crochet (sc), increase, and invisible decrease.Note: US crochet stitch terminology is used. ch=chain, sc=single crochet, 2sc in next sc=increase, sc2tog=decrease (crochet two sc together to make one sc). Materials * Yarn: Red, White, and Scrap length of Black for the eyes (but try all different colours for your mushrooms!) Pattern

How to Make Simple Crochet Slippers IMPORTANT NOTE: This pattern uses US crochet terminology. You can find the SLIPPER SIZE, YARN and HOOK specifications at the end of this article !!! (To see more of my patterns, please visit my ONLINE SHOP!) I am an addict. An addict for crochet slippers. It all began when I saw slippers similar to these somewhere on the internet. I loved them so much I couldn’t get their tempting image out of my head. All I needed was a pattern. But because I am terribly, terribly impatient, I found creating my own pattern quicker than looking for an official one on the web. And since I’m no crochet guru, the pattern turned out to be really simple. Actually, these slippers might be the simplest slippers in the universe. Or not. But they might. This is what I did… Round 1: 5 ch (chain stitch); join into ring with sl st (slip stitch) Round 2: 3 ch; 7 dc (double crochet stitch) into the center of the ring; join with sl st Round 3: 3 ch; 1 dc into first stitch; 2 dc into each next stitch; join with sl st Row 14: turn (!)

Yoga Sock Pattern! I recently did a blog post to show off the Yoga Socks I've been making and promised to share the pattern with others, so here it is.... This pattern is really flexible and can be adjusted to fit many different size feet.I have very small feet (a size 5) so you may want to chain more in the beginning but remember that the fabric will stretch when you wear it, so don't go crazy! I added only 3 chains for bigger ones which fit my moms foot (a size 8). There is one thing I've learned after making several pairs of these socks and that is you don't want the socks to be too long. This pattern is worked from the ankle down, using short rows to create the space for the heel. Okay, here it is....and please let me know if you find any errors. You will need a small amount of worsted weight yarn and a 5 mm hook. Chain 32. Slip stitch to join, being careful not to twist the chain. Working the ankle: Chain 2, half double crochet (hdc) in each space. Repeat 5 times. Forming the heel opening: Working the foot:

PIxie Dust Lap Blanket This is a where-did-you-get-this?! kind of blanket. Big, loopy stitches; hand dyed, extraordinary color; and smatterings of sparkly "pixie dust" all conspire to make this no ordinary blanket. The yarn comes from the incredibly creative yarn company, Knit Collage. We used their super funky Handspun Yarn to knit up the Fun Kid's Hat last spring, and now we're turning our attention to their more subdued (relatively speaking!) Pixie Dust yarn. You won't be the only one who thinks your new blanket is awfully cuddily. I can't think of an easier way to makeover a room than to whip up this show stopper. The Materials 7 skeins of Knit Collage's Pixie Dust, a blend of Wool, Mohair and Pixie Sparkles. Other Ideas! We also knit up the Pixie Dust Lap Blanket in a cool white "Snowflake" version. Or try doubling up Knit Collage's Sister. The Pattern Gauge 1 stitch = approximately 1 inch in 1 x 1 rib Finished Size Approximately 26 inches wide by 56 inches long Begin Cast on 27 stitches.

Chain-Chomp This is Chain-Chomp from the Mario Brothers games. I made this because my middle daughter begged me to. LOL. When writing out the pattern for it, I tried to make it as plain as possible, but I'm still learning how to write out patterns for someone other than myself to read, so bear with me. If anything is confusing, please let me know and I'll do my best to explain or change it. If the cube portion of the pattern just isn't working for you, you can always make a cube by crocheting 6 squares that are 3 to 4 inches in size and sew them together to form a cube. Materials: WW black, grey, white and red yarnsG HookSmall amount of white feltThread to match the feltYarn NeedleFiberfil This pattern requires a little more advanced work than most of the patterns I have to date. Gauge isn't really important, but your hook, yarn and natural tension should combine to create a moderately tight stitch. Using black yarn, make two half domes as follows: Rnd 1: 6 sc in magic ring. (6) Using red yarn: Ch 16.

Life As Lou :: Magic Boxes: A Life As Lou Online Class :: January :: 2008 Due to popular demand, I am doing a tutorial on the Magic Boxes I showed off in some previous posts. To begin, choose your paper. You need six sheets of matching paper (preferably a heavier weight). Choose one for your outside, budgeting for a contrasting one for your lid, and 4 to create the inside boxes. Cut as follows (all measurement are in inches): Outside: 6 x 11 3/4ths Lid: 8.5 x 8.5 4 inner boxes: 8 x 8 The only challenging part of this project is creating the lid and inside compartments. 1. 2. fold the tips of your paper in so that they meet at the center. Fold in all four sides, and then unfold. 3. This fold gives you the sides of your box. 4. I have also colored four triangles. 5. 6. Do the same thing on the other side. 7. Repeat this process on your 8 inch and 8.5 inch papers. Now for the outside. 1. 2. To put the boxes in, first adhere one to the very top right corner, making certain that you are flush with the corner of the outside paper. Here are a few that I’ve made.
