This is my fourth eBook, and while the first three all coordinated, these coasters do not. Made in cotton yarn these are excellent coasters for yourself, or work a set up for a gift basket with some tea or coffee and new mugs! Worked in a different yarn, such as Red Heart’s Super Saver, these create small squares and circles you can use in so many different ways. These coasters are great for stashbusting, work up quickly, and the neat thing too is that you can make any number that you need!

This is my third eBook, and the stitch patterns match my previous designs found in “Soap Cozy or Small Gift Bag, Vol 1” and “Let’s Crochet Some Washcloths, Vol 1”, but for this one, I wanted to focus on scarves perfect for Fall, and the upcoming holiday season.

eBook : 6 patterns

This eBook is something I have been wanting to put together for quite some time now. I started these soap cozies/small gift bags nearly three years ago when I was in between relationships, and then they sat… and sat… and went into a WIPs box… and sat, until recently when I pulled them out.

A couple months ago when trips to the yarn store were a no-go, I had the vision of this square (with a throw pillow in mind) with a solid color on top of a pretty variegated yarn.

For this month’s 4th of July series, I wanted to share a throw pillow covered in stars.

Gray is such a fitting co...

I wanted to create a motif using my basic floral applique from my Sunflower Shawl out of thread with the intention of stringing it up to the hoop, but when I finished the second round of half double crochets, I realized it was going to be too large to do this, so I switched gears, and reworked the center with double crochets so it would be larg...

I definitely plan on ...
Crochet: Washcloth / Dishcloth
As a washcloth, C2C in DC can sometimes become saggy because of the spaces in the boxes, and by spaces, I really just mean like a slit from the beginning chain that all the stitches are worked onto. I use my washcloths either for decorative purposes, or just to dry things up - not to wash anything with because of this.
Crochet: Pillow / Cushion
While searching through Pinterest for Winter decorating ideas, I came across a gorgeous living room from Wilshire Collections.

I have really been toying with the idea of a patriotic themed home lately, so these could be perfect for that too!
Crochet: Slippers
This has been my most requested crochet pattern - a kid’s version of my adult Quick and Easy Slipper Socks. It took me some time to find a chart I could use for kid’s foot sizing, and then I needed a little motivation, but it’s finally here! And since I don’t have any kids to try this pattern on, I had it tested for fit by a few makers.

Crochet: Pillow / Cushion
My living room is so plain, and a little mismatched. I have really been wanting to add to it, and make it a little more cohesive and home-y, so I decided after the holiday custom order madness had passed that I was going to take some time to make something for my living room, and what better than some fun throw pillows constructed using a simpl...
Crochet: Shawl / Wrap
At a thrift store, I found a granny square rectangle shawl. This shawl measured 46 7/8” wide by 22.25”, and was comprised of two large granny squares seamed together with a single crochet join. While I was not crazy about the colors and there was also some paint that got on it at some point, I was in love with the idea, so finally, this week I ...
