Craving Crochet

It's been a great week!  I love to give away items I make!  I had the opportunity of doing this twice this week.  One was to my co-worker Nicole whose expecting soon and the other was to my good friend and trainer Pat. Both these ladies feel in love with the items I made for them! Here are photos of their reactions: And there is a sequel to the the baby blanket I made which I also gave to Nicole at her shower.  Here's the video on how to make the Easy To Crochet Baby Headband.  

Welcome to the Craving Crochet easy crochet scarf for beginners tutorial. You will learn how to make a beautiful scarf by working the the back loops only creating a knit look. Simply start by making a chain. Added a row of single crochets and then every row after that do the same but working thru the back loops only. Then add a fringe on both ends of the scarf. Easy and simply beautiful. I hope you enjoy the tutorial!

Here's a very easy baby blanket I just finished for a co-worker who is expecting at the end of the month. I asked her what colours she liked and she said purple so I tried to incorporate purple into the blanket. I think it turned out really nice and it was so easy. I used the Bernant Baby Blanket which I found at Dollar Ramma for $3 a ball. I got the purple at Michael's for $4 each and used 2 balls to make the border. It was a very easy project. It's very soft and I think she will love it! I'll post some photos or a video of her once I give her the blanket. They are giving her a baby shower at work on the 17th so I'm glad I have this blanket ready for her! Here is the link for the video tutorial if you're interested in following it:

Here is a very simple pattern. It's only 4 rounds.  If you can't do the magic ring just make a chain 4 and slip stitch with the 1st chain then make the 12 DC in the ring.  It should look fine!  Here's the video with the step-by-step instructions.  I hope you enjoy it!

I recently made a hat for my almost 4 month old grandson.  My daughter chose the colours of the yarns because she wanted me to make her a blanket with the same seed stitch.  He now has grown out of all his baby hats so with the leftover yarn I decided to make him this hat which matches his baby blanket.  I hope you enjoy the tutorial and make a similar one for someone you love. Remember, you don't have to use 2 different yarns if you don't want to.  Just use one yarn if it's easier  It will still turn out beautiful and whoever you're making it for will appreciate all your hard work!  Enjoy!

Here are the new one little pumpkin tutuorial videos: It's such an easy & nice project and if you don't want to buy a fresh pumpkin...just make these! They won't smash or rot!  You can keep them on display all year round if you wish!  Have fun!
