Sassy Hat - Sassy Yarn (FREE Crochet Pattern)

After seeing the yarns, I was immediately attracted to the the Boutique Sassy Fabric (Pink Polka Dot), then the matching color yarn in Anne Geddes Baby Yarn (Pink). I immediately knew I had to use both of these together! The Anne Geddes Baby yarn was so soft and squishy! The Sassy Fabric yarn would be a great accent with it's sheer fabric!

I also have more yarn that is in my box and about to become WIPs. So keep an eye out for more free patterns using these new yarns! You can't wait can you?!

Backpack - Reflective Yarn (FREE Crochet Pattern)

Bizzy's "Bug Out" Bag

I was in awe with the Red Heart's Reflective Yarn. I wasn't quite sure what to make! I wanted to make something that was practical and FUN! In my package of yarns to review, I was given Yellow and Black. Now, if you haven't noticed yet, our esteemed little mascot is "Bizzy Bee"! It took some guidance of some fellow crochet artists of what to make. I did attempt to make several different things, but I would run out of yarn or it just wasn't coming out right. So, I took the advice to make a bee backpack! With a twist, using two skeins of Reflective yarn wouldn't make a standard size backpack, so I shrunk it down to be great for little kids to put their favorite toys in to take to a sleep over.

iphone phone cozy - Swanky Yarn (FREE Crochet Pattern)

It's "Swanky" Phone Cover

The Swanky yarn from Red Heart really gave me a challenge! I was pushing myself to create something brand new that had not been made yet. There are so many beautiful Hats, Scarves, Cowls and such that I wanted to see if I could make other things with this yarn.

Bohemian Beach Belt - Swanky Yarn (FREE Crochet Pattern)

"Bohemian Beach Belt"
I had the inspiration of a 60's Fringe belt in mind when creating this! I love the look of the texture and the shiny sequins to brighten up my outfits! But, you sure could use it as a skinny scarf to dress up your business suits, spring jackets or whatever you'd like!

Hug Me Teddy Bear (FREE Crochet Pattern)

Red Heart "Infinity" Boutique Yarn Review 
and featuring Furl's Wooden Yarn Bowl 

I received a box from Red Heart out of the blue a few months ago, and I was tickled pink! Immediately my autistic son is a “sensory seeker”, he gravitated towards the Infinity Boutique yarn, I don’t blame him! It’s SO soft!!!! He didn’t even mind that it was a “girly” color. I came up with this teddy bear because I promised him he could keep the yarn, but ONLY if he let me make something with it. Then the “Hug Me” Teddy was born!
