Snow Hat DIY

Love this hat, but we don't have snow here in winter!

I'm hoping one day we'll live somewhere this will come in handy ;)

Baby Hoodie

Isn't this little hooded jacket just adorable?

I especially love the pompom on the top of the hood :D

Shame my two kiddo's are too old!

Shimmer Skirt or Poncho?

This pattern from Red Heart can be used to make either a skirt or a poncho.

One assumes you would wear a slip or petticoat under the skirt version...

Isn't this the sweetest little pincushion?

Slightly tricky for a beginner, but practise makes perfect!

Crochet Hook Case

A very handy little project.

Keep your hooks in this and pop it in your handbag when you're going on a trip.

Or give one to a friend who crochets!

Crochet Rose Cushion

Just imagine this design in colours to match your home!

Mine would be blue, of course.
And because I don't have an oversized button like the one Tristin used I'd have to do a lot of thinking to figure out what to put in the centre...

Anyway, all you need to know is how to make a chain and crochet shells into it!
