Melanie Ham’s Bobble Stitch Toque Pattern
Hi Everyone! Happy Canada Day! I recently got a new desktop computer and am so impressed with the speed of it! Now I can do lots of stuff rather quickly, like finding new patterns to try out, like Melanie Ham’s Slouchy Hat Pattern. I usually have trouble creating the proper slouch for a hat, but Melanie’s pattern was easy to follow and the hat I made created a slouch that was not too limp and fit perfectly. Here are some pictures of the finished product: View fullsize View fullsize I really like this smaller bobble for the hat and it was really fun to make. I added a couple more…

Happy Easter Cross Stitch Pattern (Free)
Hi Everyone! As you know I have learning to cross stitch recently and wanted to give making patterns a try.

For my second pattern I made an Easter themed cross stitch pattern. It is pretty simple since I am just starting out, but I think it is a nice…

Crochet Bunny Hat and Diaper Cover Free Pattern
Hi Everyone! It is almost the long weekend and time for Easter! I received some free fuzzy pink yarn recently and was wondering what I could make with it. Then I thought since it is almost Easter, I would make a bunny rabbit baby set with a hat and diaper cover. I thought it would be difficult to crochet with this yarn, but if you don’t have to undo it, it crochets like any other yarn. This is my first time designing a diaper cover pattern so there were some sections that I had to redo and adjust. I also adjusted the baby hat pattern for the bunny hat and…

This little kit is small so it will be finished quickly and if you are just starting out, it won’t scare you away. Cross stitching is really relaxing and something I want…
