Reese Dixon: Motherhood and other Creative Endeavors Bear had a great Aunt who made us a couple of handmade washcloths as a wedding present, and I have to confess, back then I could not understand why you’d go to that much trouble for a washcloth when paper towels are so cheap. Ten years later, I always smile to myself when I pull that washcloth out to wash the dishes with. Oh younger me, how silly you were to not appreciate the indestructible glories of a handknit. Those first washcloths have finally given up the ghost, so I thought it was time for a whole new batch of them. I’ve made tons and tons of the fantastic washcloths from the gals at Mason-Dixon and they are really great, but I absolutely detest weaving in ends, and that one requires a lot of it. I also really prefer the process of crochet to the process of knitting. I used Lily Sugar ‘n Cream cotton. Chain 29 DC in third chain from hook and 26 times more to complete the row. Now starts the Basketweave pattern: Row 3: Repeat row 2. Those three rows create the square.

How to: Open Toe Crochet Sandals for any size | The C Side I walk barefoot at home. I would walk barefoot in the street if I could, but I can’t. My daughter is a little copy cat so she too walks barefoot, only problem is that the tiles sometimes get really cold and she jams her toes in the tables all the time (she takes after her mother). I had seen lots of crocheted baby sandals, booties, shoes but couldn’t find something that would fit a toddler and was not closed because her feet get hot and were simple and plain. So I designed my own. The hardest thing in this pattern is getting a two and a half year old to stand still for 30 seconds while you draw her feet. You will need: Worsted weight (thick worsted not light worsted, you don’t want a flimsy pair of sandals right?) First you will need to draw out the feet on a piece of paper. This is a tutorial and I tried to explain it as clearly as possible, if you need any help leave a comment or send me an email jessyz [at] chocolatemintsinajar [dot] com and I’ll help you out.

Women's size Boucle Cardigan Introduction After years of looking for a cardigan/jacket pattern that I really liked, I gave up. I had recently made a pullover and some mittens with the Bernat Baby Boucle. It's not fun to work with. It's a bear to pull out if you make a mistake, and it can try your patience, but otherwise it does work up nicely. Anyway, I grabbed up a hook, and a skein of yarn, and got to it. If you want a wider collar, just add more rows of double crochet at the last step. Materials List 3 large balls Bernat Baby Boucle I used White for this one, because that was the only solid color at the store. K metal hook I metal hook safety pins or other stitch markers Finished Size This makes a Woman's large/XL, size 16-18, iwth sufficient room to wear something substantial underneath. Gauge 8 double crochets = 3" with size K hook. Notes Ch: chain stitch Slp: slip stitch SC: single crochet HDC: half double crochet DC: double crochet Sorry for any confusion about the rows in the pattern. The Pattern 1. 2.Chain 3. 3. 5. 7 Turn.

The sloppy slip knot: how to work in the round with no hole | Stacey Trock's Fresh Stitching If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting! The typical way of starting to work in the round is less than ideal for amigurumi. The standard way is to make a slip knot, chain 2, and then single crochet six times into the first stitch. Why isn’t this the best? A number of ways have been devised to solve this problem, one of which is the magic ring. To begin, don’t make a slip knot. Now, continue on as usual. Here’s the magic part. It’s easy! Guess what? Download my free e-book:The Beginner’s Guide to Amigurumi!

If i say i need more yarn, buttons, hooks, anything related to yarn craftiness, his answer is "then lets go get you that." But Anytime i ever offer to make him something.... then finally i came up with this Cool Crochet Cable Hat for my nephew. Materials List ~any ww yarn, I have used both Red Heart super saver, and Lion brand Wool-Ease, both worked fine ~G-6 hook (However, i crochet VERY loosly, after your first couple of rows you should be able to tell if this hook is too small for you. if i were to use a bigger hook the FPDC's start to look funny) Finished Size ~this pattern worked well for both my husband and my 13 year old nephew, it also fit me quite well Gauge the cable makes it hard to measure gauge on the outside of the hat, but if you look on the wrong side for your guage it should be 14 sitches and 12 rows = 4" (10cm) Notes ~do not turn your work special stiches The Pattern edging
