This past winter was a winter of chunky yarn. I had so much fun making scarves and hats that I almost didn’t want the cold weather to go away. The warm weather has a silver lining though (and I am not even talking about shorts and flip-flops), it pushed me to make something pretty with chunky yarn! This Beach Waves pillow brings beachy and cool colors into my home, and I love how BIG and CHUNKY this yarn is! Red Heart Grande has pushed it’s way into my top favorite chunky yarns.

Maybe this has happened to you: you head out to run errands in a super cute scarf (or headband, or mitts or any other beautiful handmade item), and you get stopped by someone who asks where you got your beautiful accessory! Well this is perfect, because not only did you MAKE it, but you make and sell lots of things! You dig in your bag, trying to find a loose business card (or maybe you don’t carry business cards) and can’t find one. Ugh! You swear you will have business cards next time someone asks.
Well this adorable little crochet business card pouch might help you with this problem. Make a few of these pouches and put one in your car, or in your bag or in your pocket and you will be sure to get every sale and every lead that you run in to.
This simple chevron headband is easy to make in any size. The repetitive crochet motion is relaxing and soothing, and you will love making headbands for all the women and girls and your family! Crochet chevron is much easier to work than you think, you will love making these sweet, easy crochet headbands.
This cute chevron crochet zipper pouch is the perfect size for carrying all your little essentials. If you are not keen on the idea of carrying around a large purse, this cute little crochet pouch is the answer for you!

I am not a huge fan of bulky purses. In fact, I only carry a bag because I have kids; apparently those little people need lots of things. So I grin and bear my ginormous diaper bag full of snacks, water bottles, wipes and Transformers (which are completely crucial for a grocery store run). When it’s just me, however, I like to travel light: the essentials only. This chevron zipper pouch is perfect for carrying the things that you really need for a day (or night) out.

I am loving this boho trend. It’s so fun to see yarn and fibers trendy in home decor. Ever since our Hexagon Crochet-Along, I have been thinking of ways to put hexagons together in a cute way. This Boho Hexagon Wall Hanging is super simple and comes together easily and quickly. And I love the pretty effect. I think it would be darling a nursery, too.
With winter wrapping up, I am looking forward to sharing some fun warm-weather crochet patterns. I have been brainstorming ideas, and I think this is the first summer that I am excited about (as far as crochet pattern designing goes, of course)! I have a growing list of fun things so I am excited, but I am trying to hold my horses. Since it’s still below freezing here in Northern Utah, I really wanted to sneak in a few more cool weather patterns before the season change. This chunky ribbed infinity scarf is my absolute favorite scarf this year. It works up insanely quickly, and it’s so cozy and warm. I don’t leave the house without it.
I usually love the beginning of the week, but I have been dragging my feet lately. The last few days have been a bit of challenge. I am feeling overwhelmed, and I know it’s due to my own lack of organization. I also feel like I am losing on the parenting front. My 4-year-old son is so sweet, so silly and funny, but he has really been challenging my patience this week. Maybe it’s hard because I see such a stark difference between him and my 13-month-old. She is happy ALL DAY LONG. She plays and giggles and never talks back, which is how my son used to be. But then he and I snuggle under the covers after reading a book, and I am reminding of how much I love being a mother. I should probably just stay in bed all day tomorrow and hold on to it.
Crochet has been an extra important outlet, and these chunky, quick projects have been so cathartic. This Ric Rac Striped Scarf was made as a gift, but I am tempted to make one for myself, it’s so cozy and fun.
This crochet baby hooded cowl is perfect for keeping those little heads warm! The construction allows this baby crochet hood to stay on baby’s head easier and longer, and it perfect for winter walks or rushing from the warm house to the warm car!

Today I am revamping an old pattern–my first pattern actually. I didn’t have any idea what I was doing then(I am still learning, actually), but I was so proud of my first design. It was after this pattern that I decided I loved designing, and that I wanted to take my blog in a different direction.
Crochet. More crochet.
Since this pattern needed a bit of work and new photos, I decided to give it new life. I still love wearing my Striped Hipster Slouchy Beanie. It works up quickly, has a classic shape and is so comfy.
I have been loving hexagons lately. A few bloggers and I did a fun crochet-along with them at the beginning of the year, and I have been hooked since. I have a few project ideas in the works, but first I needed to write a simple hexagon pattern to use for them. This solid hexagon crochet pattern is easy to work up, and has a great shape. Hopefully it will be useful to you with your own hexagon projects!

This summer has been so lovely! Sis (now 8 months old!) absolutely loves being outside. She loves the leaves, and loves sitting on the grass. She will sit content in the warm breeze for a very long time, looking at the sky and watching all the things happening around her. And The Boy practically lives in his sandbox. I have had to up my vacuuming frequency to compensate for the sand I am finding everywhere. But I am so glad to have dirty, outside kids. Since summertime isn’t the time for thick, cozy baby shoes, I decided I would make some new baby barefoot sandals. These summer flower baby barefoot sandals literally take about 15 minutes to make, and are SO cute and comfy for baby. They are made with elastic yarn thread, so they are squishy, stretchy and wonderful. I made a headband with it last year, and I love the stretchy results.
This chunky fringe infinity scarf is a lovely evening project and uses soft, chunky yarn. It’s perfect for beginners and for those who want instant gratification, it works up fast.

You guys know that I love making baby stuff right? I love baby shoes, but anything baby is fun to make, especially when you have a specific bundle of joy in mind. When my crocheter friend Lauren for Crochet Ole’ posted her adorable, easy (and FREE) pattern for crochet baby teethers I knew I had to try this pattern! They turned out so cute, and it’s a lovely way to easy baby’s teething pain.
This pattern is super easy and quick to work, and I love that you can wet them down and freeze them for extra relief for Baby. When we have our next baby, he/she is going to have a collection of these!
For my teether rings I used Knit Picks Shine, which is a cotton/beechwood blend. It’s SO soft, and because it’s cotton, it won’t fuzzy or pill like other fibers.
I have already made these rings for beautiful little niece, as well as for my second niece, who is coming this November (squeal!).
