  • More Crocheted Coasters With Chain Stitch Detailing!

    The crocheted coasters I shared with you here, earlier in the week were just too cute, so I had to make some for myself too. This time I went with a slightly different and possibly just a bit more sophisticated look, and crocheting two rows of topstitching together results in a raised chenille-like look!

  • Crocheted Egg Cozy Confessions……

    I have a confession to make, are you ready? I introduced my kids to soft boiled eggs so that I could buy egg cups and crochet egg cozies. And it turns out that they actually like soft boiled eggs, now and again, and it’s an especially convenient little meal, with a good salad and some…

  • Crochet LIttle Crown Ornaments For Shavous!

    Aren’t these little crocheted crown ornaments just the cutest? I whipped these up in just five minutes each, so one really could make a bunch for a garland, a mobile or maybe even napkin rings. Ah yes, I like that idea as a fun touch for our Shavous table (since the crown is a symbol…

These trays, are great for catching keys and loose change, and all the little things that just need a place to rest!

  • A Giant Crocheted Doily (Rug) For The Dining Room Table!

    I have to confess, I considered tearing out this giant crocheted doily rug to re-use the zpaghetti t-shirt yarn, because the resulting rug was just a bit too floppy to use on the floor. Though of course I couldn’t tear out the rug until I got around to sharing the pattern, and whatya know, now…

  • Crocheted Hearts Wall Hanging On A Limb!

    How about making a crocheted hearts wall hanging to remind someone that you love them? I made this crocheted hearts and leaves wall hanging using a real branch, to hang over my daughter’s bed.

    The Perfect Crocheted Heart Ornament For Any Time!

    Last week I had a vision of making my daughter a winter scarf with tiny crocheted hearts, based on an afghan stitch I’d seen. Well, that vision wasn’t realized as nicely as I’d hoped when I tried out that stitch (I’ll share it with you, not to worry!) so then I decided to try out…

  • Crocheted Star Fish Washcloth

    If you ask me, I’d say there’s something really really luxurious about the idea of a hand crocheted washcloth, so a set of these simple star fish washcloths (with some shell shaped soaps?) would be a perfect gift this summer. You know, for those friends who have generously offered to host you at their beach…

  • Crocheted Medallion Stash Buster Potholder

    Yesterday I made some fun crocheted medallion potholders and used up a bunch of little odds and ends from some Lion Brand cotton yarn I’d been saving. When trying to use up the odds and ends, one may end up trying out color combinations that you’d never normally think of, but that’s part of the…

  • Crocheted Wire Hanger Cover

    A crocheted cover for a wire hanger looks great and is the perfect project for those of us who don’t have easy access to vintage style wooden hangers. Of course if you can get your hands on some wooden hangers, the two look great together, and you can follow my pattern here! Truthfully, if you…
