It's always really satisfying when a faithful old free pattern gets it's own PDF version! The Leafy Tam hats have definitely been faithful for me, whether I need a cozy cap to keep my hair from freezing in wintertime or I just need to turn a skein of colorful soft yarn into something cute and...

I've finished another hat made from my FREE Vintage Derby Hat pattern and have some pictures and a brief update to go along with 🙂 First things first - you can find this pattern totally for free on my blog here, or you can purchase the portable, printable, ad-free version in my Etsy Shop ,...

I'm so grateful for the gorgeous autumn we've had here this year, and the abundant opportunities to go play outside before the weather got truly chilling. Now unfortunately my toes are icicles when I go out to exercise in the morning and the slush season appears imminent, but why bemoan that when I have a... Continue Reading →
I've stayed pretty busy since the last big pattern release, so when 2/3rds of October sped by in a blink, I wasn't surprised. I'm so grateful for all the support my latest design the Yggdrasil Poncho received! I love creating and it's just so fun to share my love of crochet with others who know... Continue Reading →
You'd think that with two different magical pointy hat crochet patterns already written, I wouldn't feel the urge to create another.

I wanted to do a video for my free Gnome Toboggan crochet pattern to help provide guidance through some of the trickier parts (like increasing in alternating fpdc/bpdc) and... Continue Reading →
I loooooooove faux fur (and real fur when I can get it thrifted) so I happily bought a lot of Lion Brand's new Go For Faux yarn when it hit my local hobby store shelves, and have already used it in some of my new fall designs. The Thick 'n' Quick version is so bulky... Continue Reading →
It all started in fall of 2015 when I searched around the internet for a good, simple crochet beret pattern, one with a classic shape good for regular ol' worsted yarns.Finding nothing that appealed to my particular idea of what I wanted, I sat down and crocheted it myself and debuted the pattern for free...

No sooner than I released the totally-free crochet pattern for the Hedge Witch Hat, did I realize I wanted to add some tweaks to the general shape of it! Typical of me really - I've never once put out a pattern that I didn't want to keep modifying in some way. Unfortunately, not matter how... Continue Reading →
