I designed the Ombre Waves Tank Top around this time last year, but I only offered it in 1 size. One of my crochet pattern testers said she would LOVE to do the tank top, but I didn’t offer a Small. I heard the same thing about sizes from others, so I decided to add 5 more sizes to the pattern. So now YOU can take advantage of these changes as well!

When you are finished with YOUR version of the Ombre Waves Tank Top I would LOVE, LOVE, LOVE to see it! You can stop by my Facebook Group Jo’s Crafty Hook Designs here!

Joining Squares and Adding a Border to an Afghan or Blanket

In today’s post I will be sharing how to join afghan or blanket squares and adding a border to your afghan or blanket.

Below you will find some helpful Video Tutorials on how to join squares you used in making an Afghan or Blanket. Also you will find a Video Tutorial I made using the Lollipop technique when I added my border.

The original post was from when I took part in the Patchwork Mystery CAL, but these techniques can be used in joining any squares or adding a border when making an afghan or blanket.

The technique I used in joining my squares was crocheting them together using the double crochet stitch.

I also have a helpful Video Tutorial on joining squares using the Running Stitch which you can watch below.

************************************************

This is it, the end of the Patchwork Mystery CAL, well it’s ALMOST over! In today’s post I will be sharing the Joining Squares and Adding a Border for the Patchwork Mystery CAL Afghan that I did. Don’t worry because if you just joined us for the CAL or are behind, the schedule will stay up in the group and our patterns will remain FREE on our websites or blogs! If you are just coming across our CAL, you can find our Facebook Group Patchwork Mystery CAL here!

Joining my Afghan Squares was a challenge, with SO many different techniques out there it was hard to choose from, but I find one perfect for mine! I used a DC techniques to Join my afghan squares. Below is a picture on my Join and a Video Tutorial to show you exactly what I did.

Once I joined all of my Afghan Squares, I added a DC Border around the whole Afghan. After I did this I searched and searched Pinterest until I found the perfect decorative border I was looking for. I call it the “Lollipop” technique. lol The actual pattern came from My Crafts which can be found here.

I also made a Video Tutorial of my “Lollipop” Border and you can find it below which is from my YouTube Channel.

And here is my finished Patchwork Mystery CAL Afghan! I hope you like it and are able to find the perfect Join and Border for your Patchwork Mystery CAL Afghan! Be sure to finish your Afghan and enter it in our Contest for a chance to win prizes! You can find more about the Contest inside our Facebook Group Patchwork Mystery CAL here!

Lilac Cluster Beanie Free Crochet Pattern

In today’s post I will be sharing the Lilac Cluster Beanie FREE Crochet Pattern. I am so excited to be sharing this free crochet pattern with you for a number of reasons. The main one is that I looked at a store bought hat and was able to create a crochet pattern from it! Another reason is that it is a Beautiful design and a Great Beanie! lol The last reason is the flower clusters look like Lilacs, which is my ALL time favorite flower. I just LOVE their smell!

Flower Cluster Beanie Free Crochet Pattern — Found Hat

My son found a hat and gave it to me last year. When it was taken out of storage this past winter I was like “I NEED to copy this pattern!” I took a real good look at it and wanted to see if I could crochet it because it said on the label “Crocheted.” Well I finally worked out a pattern and I hope you love it as much as I do!

You can get an Ad Free PDF Version with Step-by-Step pictures and Video Tutorials. The crochet pattern contains 8 sizes. You can find the ad free pdf crochet pattern at the places listed below.

Patchwork Mystery CAL Schedule

Patchwork Mystery CAL Schedule — Star Portal – Jo’s Version

Lana Blossom Square – Jo’s Version

Joann Fabric Sale
Up to 30% Off Entire Stock Yarn! Valid 5/13-5/22.

At the first of the year I was asked to join a Facebook Group, called the Patchwork Mystery CAL. The Patchwork Mystery CAL started April 15, 2019 and lasts until July 7, 2019. Below you will find the Patchwork Mystery CAL Schedule which will be 12 weeks long. Also at the end of the schedule I talk about crochet giving you hope!

The Facebook Group consists of me and 11 other fiber artist designing a 12″ x 12″ Square for their mystery CAL. All of the designs were to be and are to held a secret until each artist’s Square is revealed. Also when we were creating our square there had to be a meaning behind the design. Therefore each of us 12 fiber artists have a story to tell when our Square is published.

Learn to Tunisian Crochet Online Class at Annie’s

The purpose of the group’s 12 squares is to create an amazing work of art by joining the 12 squares and creating an Afghan. The creation of the Afghan has you joining 3 Squares across by 4 Squares long. You can arrange your 12 squares any way you prefer or join them in the order of the CAL.

Even though it is week 2 of the CAL, you will have plenty of time to join us and crochet a Square. Today is the release of Square #2. I will be adding to this post weekly, as the next fiber artist’s square is revealed. So if you have want to join our CAL you can do so here.

Save the Song Birds with Scrap Yarn

Crochet & Knit Artificial Nests — Save the Song Birds with Scrap Yarn

Save the Song Birds with Scrap Yarn

As my family will tell you, I LOVE Birds! I love Blue Jays, Cardinals, Woodpeckers, Cat Birds, and more! I could go on and on about the different types of Birds I love, but I won’t. But I do want YOU crocheters or knitters out there to LOVE Song Birds so much that you make the baby birds a Nest with YOUR talent!

My adopted daughter,Victoria Dunn, brought this idea to my attention, I LOVED this idea SO much that I want to get YOU involved! I found a pattern last night in my Gram’s old crochet patterns that I thought would be perfect for all of us to crochet for the baby song birds. SO I am sharing it right here on my Blog AND inside my FB Group Jo’s Crafty Hook Designs! So be sure to crochet a basket (or 4), share it with us in my FB Group and I will share your pics on my website!

For those of you like me, Chronic Pain sufferer or Scoliosis Survivor, this Crochet/Knit pattern is right up your alley! It takes very little yarn, very little time, and leaves you with a HUGE sense of accomplishment!! Here is the original post and the related post as well. You can even watch a video about the group that use these nests. For those of you that would like to mail in your nest when finished, here is the address to sent it to:

Carolina Waterfowl Rescue
CWR
Po box 1484
Indian Trail NC 28079

You can use 2 strands of your Scrap Yarn! 1-1.5 ounces of each color is all you need! I know I have made 8 so far and I haven’t even put a dent in my scrap yarn.
