0 Comments

 
I don't know about you all, but I have really been missing the Designer Spotlight posts lately. Luckily, we've got another great one this week! Today's spotlight is all about Brooke of Snuggly Fox Designs. Brooke is a talented crochet designer with tons of adorable kid-approved patterns. She has some super cute wearables and I especially love all of the accessories for her amigurumi dolls. So take a look at some of her work, learn more about her as a fiber artist, and be sure to go check out the rest of her patterns! I'm sure you'll find something you love.

Battle of the Stitches

1/30/2018

9 Comments

 
Have you ever been working on a crochet project and found yourself wondering which stitch you should use? There are SO many stitches to choose from! Choosing can be a daunting prospect. But let's say that you're going to keep it simple and stick with the basics: either single crochet (sc), half double crochet (hdc), or double crochet (dc). Which should you use? Does it even make a difference? What's different about them anyway? 

Those of you who have been following my blog from the beginning may remember that I'm a total nerd who's not opposed to getting a little bit scientific with my crochet. So to help you figure out which stitch is right for your next WIP, I designed a few simple tests to showcase the differences between these staple stitches.

There are times for intricate, complex crochet patterns. And then there are times for simple, mindless crochet patterns. Can you guess which one this scarf is?

Yet Another Unicorn

My son is still obsessed with the Christmas Zebra I made for him last month. He named the zebra Zozee and now Zozee goes everywhere with us. Luckily we haven't lost him yet (I'm keeping my fingers crossed on this one). Zozee is quite the adventurous zebra; he flies through space, he rescues other animals, and he apparently loves to watch Octonauts. It probably goes without saying that I was strictly banned from packing Zozee up with the other Christmas things. Since it looks like Zozee's definitely the favorite toy at the moment, I couldn't resist my son's request to make Zozee a friend. But instead of making a zebra, I figured I'd tweak the pattern just a bit and make something a little different: a unicorn!

Extra Cozy Trapper Hat

I know it's only the beginning of January, but I am already SO done with winter. Thank goodness it's starting to warm up a bit, because the last couple weeks have been brutal. I guess you can take the girl out of Southern California, but you can't take the Southern California out of the girl. I am just not built for the cold. Luckily, cozy crochet pieces always cheer me up a bit. And my favorite crochet-wear at the moment is definitely this awesome trapper hat.
