Early Spring

The weather in Michigan has been crazy these past few weeks. We're experiencing a very early spring, almost summer. I'm not complaining though! Just in time for this spring fever is an order for 200 flowers!

They are for a woman's event, and I'm so excited to get the opportunity to do this. It seems like a huge amount, but I'm slowly working away at them. All colors and sizes...pretty much free rein! Hopefully, I will still like crocheting flowers after this! ;) I'll post a picture when they're completed.

Football head

I found these cute hats on another crocheter's blog, and had to make some. Perfect for super bowl weekend coming up! I have some pretty cute models too ;)

Little boy slippers

My little son told me his feet were cold the other day. So, what does a good crochet Mom do? Make those feet some warm slippers! I love this varigated yarn too. These are just a great cozy, winter item!

Owl hat revamp

Welcome to the new year! I'm looking forward to a great year full of new, fun projects. I hope to be in my first craft show this fall, so I'm already trying to start building my inventory. I would love some input or ideas on what you think would be a best seller or popular item!

I'd also like to add a picture of my revamped owl hats. Alot of customers were having problems with the button eyes falling off, so I've decided to eliminate them completely. Instead, I'm just doing a colored yarn pupil. I think this adds another dimension to the eyes as well! If you ordered an owl hat from me, and your buttons are missing or fall off, please contact me and I will be happy to make the new eyes on your hat free of charge.

A little news

I've got some updates for you! I'm expanding my offerings to include booties, slippers, boots, and cowels. I might even do an occasional baby blanket here and there! Right now, booties and slipper boots are going to be offered in newborn through toddler size, but I hope to work on a pattern for bigger feet soon. I'm excited to offer more selection. Maybe you would like a matching hat/bootie set for someone special!

Matching is fun!

I just love matching hats on little ones. Especially if they are brothers or sisters. I recently made these two girl's newsboy hats for a customer. She was so excited to give them to her friend who has a 2 daughters. (And for fun, I pretended I had two daughters and tried them on my boys! Shhh...don't tell!)

Two things

First of all- I made my first pair of booties today! I still have to get used to crocheting this small, but I'm excited about all the possibilities these booties/shoes hold. I will be trying new color combos and cute buttons as soon as I get through some hat orders. Hopefully, I can add these cute shoes to my list of items. They would be simply adorable with a matching hat and blanket for a baby gift!

Secondly, I just have to share this photo of my precious boys in their matching owl hats!
