Crochet: Scarf
This scarf only takes about half an hour to complete!
Crochet: Beanie, Toque
All of my patterns are free. To keep them that way:
Crochet: Earflap Hat
The earflaps, which are slightly cupped, are crocheted without binding off and starting new yarn. This hat is easy to adjust for circumference, simply by increasing the number of stitches in your beginning chain (30 st in bc = 60 st circ; 36 bc = 72 circ, etc.).
Crochet: Earflap Hat
I did not include instructions for creating the poms as I use the Clover Large Pom Pom maker. For each pom, I wrap each side 75 times, which results in a pom with 300 ends (75 wraps, cut in half = 150 x 2 sides = 300).
Crochet: Hats - Other
This hat is not for the faint of heart! It is big, eye-catching, heavier than most, and time-consuming. The pattern includes instructions for a base hat (Plain As A Mud Fence) and surface detailing.
Crochet: Hats - Other
This is a whimsical hat designed to mimic my daughter’s naturally corkscrew curly hair. It is fairly simple to work, but the curls take some time to complete.
Crochet: Beanie, Toque
This is a very basic domed hat worked in back loops only. It would be easy to embellish with earflaps, ruffles, or appliques. This hat will serve as the base for at least one future pattern, so keep your eyes peeled!
Crochet: Scarf
This scarf matches the Olivia’s Butterfly hat from Vallieskids
Crochet: Beanie, Toque
I have not tested this pattern for correctness, however I wrote it as I crocheted the hat. I have included adjustments in a chart at the end of the pattern, but again they have not been tested. If anyone finds an error, please bring it to my attention.
Crochet: Scarf
This is a wide, short scarf with a button. The pattern is written in a color coded chart created in Excel, though the pattern is a PDF. The flower button was created using the medium sized round flower on a Hana Ami loom. I used the darning stitch in the center and backstitch around that.
