Scarf and Scarfette Crochet Collection Finished

Finally finished! I got my even dozen crochet scarf and scarfette patterns (one's actually a chunky edging pattern) collected into one ebook.

Whew! The neat thing about scarves is that they CALL to you1! They comfort you and coddle you, they make you feel cared for. By extension, when you make one for someone, you are offering them that same feeling. What a sweet gift! A bonus is that they're always an accent piece, a spot of your fave colors. Wow.

It's why I love them, and why I'm currently taken with scarfettes, really lariats...you can see the swirly rosettes in the cover pic. Oh, so much fun. Super unique. High contrast, which is a must for crochet jewelry.

Pure happiness! Thanks for looking, and show me what you're designing! Here are my various patterns on Amazon's Kindle Store, including this new one....when you see my patterns as Kindle documents, they're smaller in format and they're unable to be printed out, so I sell them more cheaply than the larger printable versions on my Etsy Crochet pattern store .

Here's the collection on Etsy, it's $12.90; when I get it on the Kindle Store in a day or two, it will cost a bit less (because it's a bit smaller in format and not printable)...I'll make sure to link to it.

Blessings, Susan

Rosettes and Hearts in Crochet

I'm crazily working on these scarfettes, totally obsessed! Here is a collection of them on Etsy I love making a tiny motif puffy and stout! The rosettes edged in black are so floppy and swirly I love them.

I've also been working more in cotton and even cotton thread for summer, but I'm wanting to avoid old fusty ideas and tiny tiny crochet hooks. We need that like a poke in the eye with a sharp stick (or crochet hook), right? So thread with big hooks is what I'm thinking....

It's hard to know what to crochet when summer comes, so I switch to appliques and tiny things, purses and flowers. Show me what you've been working on and have a super day!

Here are my various patterns on Amazon's Kindle Store, including this new one....when you see my patterns as Kindle documents, they're smaller in format and they're unable to be printed out, so I sell them more cheaply than the larger printable versions on my Etsy Crochet pattern store . 

Ooh... new, Red Wool Hearts Pattern I'm finishing up

Hopefully will finish this one (actually it's two) today. For Valentine's Day or any day you want to look really bright!see my patterns here (including this one, soon)

Fun Stitch

I may have been reinventing the wheel with this one, but did some stacked shell stitches for a super-fast edging idea....what fun! It goes a mile a minute, and I've been using all of my odds and ends yarns lying around to make cool coiled thin scarfettes and headbands. Pretty! You can see the listing for the pattern at http://www.etsy.com/listing/64529321/pattern-make-easy-stocking-stuffer  AND have a lovely holiday weekend. Lots to do!!
