One More Whistler

March 25, 2019 by Bethany 25 Comments

If you are on my email list, you are probably wondering why my recents emails are peppered with excuses about why the blog has been a bit lacking in patterns and projects lately (“not feeling well” has been a common theme as of late 😂).

I am definitely not one to make excuses about missed deadlines (or do appropriate self-care for that matter), but I will tell you, a few ~~days~~ weeks the last couple months have had me flat on my back (and with my face over the toilet).

But it’s not all bad news…

Poca the Bear Crochet Along

March 12, 2019 by Bethany 106 Comments

Introducing an upcoming Crochet Along! Work along as we make this darling Poca the Bear or Poca the Bear Lovey! Both patterns use basic stitches and the color work on the blanket looks deceivingly difficult (its actually very easy!). This post contains affiliate links which means I get a very small commission at no extra cost to you.

It’s been far too long since I have planned a crochet along (CAL). I love seeing the flow of individual flair on the same project and it’s so fun to all work together on the same thing.

This bear has been a very special project for me and has taken me quite some time to perfect. When my son was in the PICU after his accident he was given a teddy bear from a family friend. He loved how floppy the bear’s the arms and legs were and I loved its sweet face. It was special to him, which made it special to me.

Months later, I set out to create a crochet version. It was a lot of trial and error, changing my mind, sending off to testers, changing my mind again, making last minute changes…etc. But it’s finally completed and I am so excited to share it with you. (I even have plans for some fun variations 🥰)

POCA THE BEAR CROCHET ALONG

This CAL will be a bit different than the other ones I have done. This pattern will be a premium pattern and will be available in my Ravelry and Etsy shops, however, during the CAL, those who participate will be able to get the pattern parts for free on my blog.

Also, the other difference is the CAL will only be available to my email tribe! If you are interested in joining in the fun, be sure to sign up for my emails.

Psst: There is absolutely no charge to subscribe to my emails! Read all the benefits of becoming part of the Whistle and Ivy Tribe here.

Okay, here are the CAL deets.

WHEN IT STARTS:

Mark you calendars for Monday, March 25th.

HOW IT WORKS:

Beginning the Monday of March 25, I will send an email on each day of the CAL that contains a link to that day’s part of the CAL. Links will not be shared any other place other than the email, so be sure you whitelist my emails so you don’t miss any. The pattern parts will be available for 7 days after the day it’s released. You can either print the pages to keep the pattern or you can buy the ad-free PDF at the end of the CAL for 50% off my shop price.

WHAT YOU NEED:

To make Poca the Bear Plushy:
– 3.5 mm hook
– 1 skein of Red Heart Soft in Cocoa
– Small amount of black for the nose
– Polyfil Stuffing
– 10mm Safety Eyes

I hope you join me ❤️
