Kits Are In!

After MANY requests from satisfied customers, the kits are here! 

With this kit you get the fabric, crochet hook, care instruction card, a label to personalize yourself, a coupon for your next order and FREE pattern to complete a blanket approx 31" x 30" with two edging options! 

Pick out your own yarn to coordinate with the fabric! Chocolate would be yummy. A crisp white would look great too! Peaches and pinks are other colors in this fun fabric! Choose more than one color for a unique look!
I think a crisp white would be lovely with this kit. A shade of blue would look great too, or, choose both for a unique look all its own!

Pattern, below, is by far, my most popular pattern and included in the kit!  Easy and quick!  Whip one up in a weekend!

Grey Gardens Blanket is my latest pattern in my Etsy shop.  Easy pattern that's great for beginners!  Easily change up the colors, size and edging!  The crochet stitch reminds me of linen and it's a great size for a baby's crib!  Perfect colors for the modern mommy....shades of grey and yellow!

My niece and nephew are coming for Thanksgiving, so I think I will make one for each of them in their favorite colors.  They live in Texas, and will need something to snuggle under when they are here, as we are in Nebraska!  Oooo....red and black for the Cornhuskers!  We love our college football here!

Lovely, Free Scarf/Shawl Pattern

I found this Lollipop Shawl Pattern on Ravelry!  After my Knit Picks order in Chroma in Roller Skate  arrived I couldn't wait to get started!
Easy pattern and well written!  I'd like to try using worsted weight yarn and larger needles next time!

Now that fall is here, all the scarves and shawls I have been working on can finally be used!

What are you lovelies working on?

Best,
Sheila

New Patterns


New patterns are ready for purchase in my Etsy shop! Giant Fall Granny uses super bulky yarn!

I would rate this as an advanced beginner crocheter. 

It's no secret that I love oversized scarves and super bulky yarn! 

This is a great project to use your yarn stash of single skeins. You can’t go wrong with color choices here. Try black and white! All one color would look stunning. Add fringe to the edges or one big tassel at the bottom!

Color photos included! I am always available for help!


My Orange Smoothie is the perfect, easy pattern to hook away while watching t.v., at the pool, beach! Going on a car vacation? Be sure to take this along! Going on an airplane trip, easily pack it in your purse or carry on!

Try using your yummy sock yarn or hand painted scrumptious skeins that are screaming to be shown off!

Whip one up quickly using worsted weight yarn and a larger hook!

Make it larger or smaller easily by stopping at your desired width! 

Pick an edging out of your stash of crocheted edgings books!

I’m not sure there is anything cuter than an animal hat! Ok, maybe a baby wearing one! You don’t have to make your Zebra Hat in black and white! Brown and white would be cute too! Or, any two colors in the rainbow! A two tone in cream would be perfect for the modern mom who likes a neutral!

Perfect on any little munchkin or toddler noggin! 

Great photo prop for boys or girls! Thank you to Mary at Hidden Expressions for the great pic! See Mary's work here

Easily change the color combo! Brown and white, two tone cream for the neutral lover! Or any color combo in the rainbow! Change the black rolled brim to hot pink for girls or to blue for boys!

Soft acrylic yarn will make it easy to machine wash, gentle cycle, tumble dry low or lay flat to dry.

This is an advanced beginner or better pattern. You will need to know the knit stitch, knit 2 stitches together, make one, joining another color yarn, knitting in the round on double pointed needles.

Color photos included! All my patterns give options for yarns available in your local Hobby Lobby, Michael's or Wal Mart! You can certainly use your yummy stash for any of my designs and I am always available for help!



My Blanket Kits are available in three different sets!  After MANY requests from satisfied customers, the kits are here! Finding just the right color to go with the fabric is the hardest part of this project! I've done all the work for you to complete my most popular pattern!

With this kit you get the fabric, yarn, crochet hook, care instruction card, a label to personalize yourself, a coupon for your next order and FREE pattern to complete a blanket approx 31" x 30" with two edging options!
