I'll admit, I don't usually make crochet blankets. My last big blanket project, with its billions of loose ends, sorta turned me off to the whole idea of a mess of granny squares. So, I've tended to stick to cute little things, like owls and fish scrubbies and things....

Crochet Fish Scrubbie Washcloths
On our last date night, Drew and I walked around the "downtown" of the town we're moving to this fall, you know, to get a feel for our neighborhood. We found this little doodads store that had a bunch of, well, doodads, and all sorts of vintage-y, charming things. I'm...
Invisible Half Double Crochet Decrease
Here's a quick tutorial for today, an invisible half double crochet decrease. The invisible decreasing single crochet is something I learned from Planet June, and it's pretty ingenious, probably because it's so simple. Instead of inserting your hook through both loops...
Perfect Crochet Stripes Without Cutting Yarn
There I was, wanting to make stripes for a project I'm working on (which I'll be sharing!) and I kept seeing that ugly seam where the rounds join up. I'm sure you know what I mean. I suppose I could cut the yarn each time, join it with an invisible join, and then...

Crochet Curly Cue Sampler – How to Choose the Best Curl
As you may or may not have noticed, I've been on a bit of a blog break lately. Mostly because I traveled overseas with LM, and came back with a bad case of the jet lags. After that, it's just taken me a while to get going again, but hopefully, I'll find my groove in...

Pom-pom Gnomes {Crochet Pattern}
I'm sharing two last minute projects inspired by stuff I saw on the internet. First up are these pom-pom gnomes. I saw this pom-pom Santa knew I wanted to make my own. The instructions are pretty self-explanatory so I'm going to keep this simple. Supplies 1 inch...
