Old-Fashioned Baby Sweater Set

This is the free patter from Free Crochet today. The Old-Fashioned Baby Sweater Set. I think it's adorable. Something you can make for a new baby. A special baby in your life. It's so delicate. And I think it would be cute in a baby green color.

This project is going on my list. I'd love to make this set in a few different colors. It's so delicate. And precious. This one, it might have to go him my "Hope Chest."

Multi-Stripes Bib

There are just some projects that make you smile. This bib, it's one of them. The bib is so simple. But there is something about it that makes me smile. I want to sit down right now, and make it. There is something about the stripes and the colors. Something vintage inspired. Go to Free Crochet today, to get the pattern.

Halloween Cover and Doily

Another cute Halloween pattern from Free Crochet. I'm thinking that this week's theme for the free pattern of the day, is Halloween. This one, I would definitely make. It's supposed to go over a candle holder. The glass bowl type that are sold at Wal-Mart. I really do enjoy this.

I'm going to make this. To put on my coffee table. I already have a similar glass bowl candle holder. It's painted though. No crochet. And it was a gift from my daughter. I think this would be nice to put there for the holiday.

Lil' Boo Bear

Look at this adorable Halloween pattern from Free Crochet. The Lil' Boo Bear is today's free pattern. I'm going to admit it. I have about a dozen of these bears in my craft room. My daughter and I used to craft with them years ago. At least 20 years ago.

I have all the supplies I need to make this pattern, I think I'm going to sit down and make a few. I think they would look nice in my front window. With some lights, they would make some fun decorations! And essentially, they would be free. Because I have all the supplies in my Craft Room.

Wee Winter Warmers

The Wee Winter Warmers is today's free pattern from Free Crochet. I'm always at a loss for baby boy presents. I think this is going to be a nice addition to my pattern collection. This is a nice and quick present to make for a Baby Shower. And a pattern that I think you should go download.

Coffee Table Topper

Another lovely doily from Free Crochet. This is today's free pattern. And I really like it. I have a soft spot in my heart for doilies. And for the pineapple stitch. This is definitely going on my to-make list.

Now I just need to get to Hobby Lobby. I want to make this for my living room coffee table. I really like the pineapple stitch. And this looks like such a great pattern.

I've gotten a few messages about doilies. They're not hard to make. Working with the small crochet needles and thread isn't too bad. You just have to worry about your tension. Your stitches have to be pretty uniform. But it's not hard. Then you can always block your doily when you finish.

Helmet and Mitts

I saw this pattern and it just made me smile! It reminds me of something I made my son when he was a baby. Another great pattern from Crochet Soiree. I'm printing it off. And I'm definitely going to make a set or 2. Either for gifts or for our annual Craft Sale. I just can't get over how cute the little hat is.

Starlight Doily

A while back, my daughter sent me a link to Crochet Soiree. I just hadn't had time to look at it. Until today. And it is a nice website. They sell lots of crochet patterns and materials. There is also a nice blog. And some free patterns. You just need to download them right away. Most are only free for a week or so. But I did find this one...



You can get the Starlight Doily pattern for free right now. I really like the look of it. And I'm printing it out as I type this. The Starlight Doily is definitely going to be on my "To-Make" list. But I'll definitely be going to this website many times in the future.

Essential Jacket

I seen this pattern this morning. And I really like it. It's from Lion Brand and it's a free pattern. Always good news in my book!

The jacket is just a nice piece. And I really would like to make it. I know it's not a good item for the weather right now. It's been between 94-100 degrees for weeks. But I think it would be a nice item for Fall. I just need to go get some yarn. I'm thinking of making a green one and a brown one. Yes, I really like this pattern!
