Crochet Hair Accessories Hey, Bloggers! Crazy #2 here! And THIS is what I made today and what I'll be sharing with you! So.... as a super girlie girl, I LOVE all things feminine. Interior design, jewelry, fashion, PINK and oh my stars... you should see my shoe closet (I think I lost count at 100 pairs...not kidding). So, needless to say, when it comes to any kind of fashion accessory, I'm always a sucker. And decided to take a stab at crocheting. Looks pretty pro eh? Now, the first time I watched her video, I followed it exactly because I was still learning the basics of which stitches made what shapes. Sure, the small flower might be cuter for a baby or something, but for me, it's just way too super teenie weenie! If you follow the rest of her pattern, yours will turn out similar to mine. The yarn I used, I just bought it at Wal*Mart and was less than $2 for the ball. To finish the project, you'll also need and embroidery needle to stitch the slinky flower together.

how to crochet a daisy chain necklace My mum described this thing she had seen on someone else, part necklace, part scarf, like a bunch of flowers for your neck and I was really taken with this idea of floral jewels. So after a bit of experimentation I came up with this design. It is simple to make with basic crochet stitches, and could have endless variations both in terms of the yarns and flower styles used to make it but also in the way it is worn. Materials * Yarn – I used Rowan Glace cotton in six different colours, a total of 33 gms. Method As I am an aussie I will use Australian/European stitch terminology, but since I learnt to crochet using American patterns, I’ll explain equivalents. Make the flowers first. Make a slip knot and chain 4. Insert the hook into the fist chain and slip stitch to form a ring. Round 1 - 10 double crochet into the ring: insert the hook through the middle of the ring, put the yarn over the hook and pull the yarn through the ring, leaving two loops on the hook. Put the yarn over the hook again

Okay, truthfully I have been crafting, just not stuff that I can share with you at the moment, or have yet to photograph, which is usually the case, phew! I tried to photograph something quickly before the sun went down, but since the project wasn't quite finished I think I'll share it with you in its entirety tomorrow. In the mean time I realized there may have been some projects that I did last year and hadn't shared, and yes, sure enough, I now present to you my quick soda bottle clown craft! Yes it is true, we have made soda bottle clowns in the past, or rather my daughter made soda bottle clown gift boxes, that were recycled. This one contains the drink that comes in the bottle, and since we don't buy or drink that stuff, I had to quickly craft with it to get it out of the house, clever me!

For the sake of this tutorial though, I separated the strands - let's clall them Red/Purple and Blue/Purple! 2) Tie the strands together, then string Blue/Purple under & through one end of the chain. 3) Red/Purple goes over Blue/Purple, then under and through the chain. 5) Then Blue/Purple under and through the chain....
Knit, Shear Bliss!: Jyri Scarf I first saw this scarf on the berroco website and fell in love with it. I just had to knit this. I decided to make it first for someone close to me (not mentioning any names, yet). I wanted a fun and funky yarn that was both wool for warmth and a bright colour. I went through my stash and searched eBay for Rowan, or Debbie Bliss yarn but nothing was doing it for me. I visited Michaels and found this yarn and decided it would be perfect. I loved knitting this scarf. Details Jyri from Norah Gaughan, Volumn 1. Started: August 24th 2008 Completed: August 29th 2008 Yarn: Lion Brand Wool Shade: Lemongrass Amount of Yarn: 2 Skeins.
betz white: Felt Ogee Ornament Tutorial I woke up this morning with an image in my head of a felt snowflake. So I asked my kids to make a few traditional fold and cut paper snowflakes for me before they left for school. I wanted to use them as templates for my idea. Instead, my 10 yr old showed me a 3D paper snowflake they had made in his art class. I loved the beauty and simplicity of it, so I changed my course! …it worked! Step 1: Cut one 6″x 6″ square of felt. Step 2: Using a straight edge and an Xacto knife, cut along the first line from the corner to about 1/4″ from the diagonal line. Repeat until all cuts have been made, keeping the felt intact at each corner on the diagonal line. Step 3: Lift the corners of the center square and hand stitch the ends together with matching thread. Step 4: Turn the piece over and lift the corners of the second square. Step 5: Continue turning the piece over, overlapping points and stitching until all 4 squares are stitched. This makes a large ornament, about 10″ in total length.
