Does your cat or dog take up the whole bed? You can make Your Buddy’s Bed Crochet Pattern for Cats & Dogs and get a better night’s sleep.
When my grand-furry Freyja comes over to spend the night, she takes up the WHOLE bed! I am left with the very edge of the bed and no covers!! When I finally kick Freyja off the bed, she will curl up and sleep on her own bed.
Also, when my cat Maze sleeps in the bed with she is either curled up behind my knees or she lays on top of my feet. I can now lay her bed next to my bed and I get a better nights sleep.
So I designed the Your Buddy’s Bed Crochet Pattern to help me and you get a better nights sleep.
About Your Buddy’s Bed Crochet Pattern
Your Buddy’s Bed Crochet Pattern is designed just for the cute little furry friends you have in your life. It is a woof-ing great make for your dog or cat to have a bed of their very own. There are 2 sizes to choose from, for a purr-fect fit.
I used Caron One Pound 100% Acrylic Yarn. (16 oz/453.6 g) (812 yds/742 m) in Azure for the 20” x 20” I also used Caron Big Cakes 100% Acrylic Yarn (10.5 oz/300 g) (603 yds/551 m) for the 24” x 24”
Materials: 800-1100 yards of #4 Worsted Weight Yarn US H or 5mm Crochet Hook 16 oz Pillow Stuffing
Finished Sizes: 20” x 20” 24” x 24”
The Your Buddy’s Bed Crochet Pattern uses the N-Stitch. The N-Stitch uses the basic crochet stitches, the single crochet stitch and the half double crochet stitch.
Because you are only using the single crochet and the half double crochet, the combination of stitches create a nice beautiful texture. It is also a close stitch which will keep it’s shape and will help keep the Pillow Stuffing inside.
You can find a Left Handed Version of the N-Stitch on my YouTube Channel

The Caiden Baby Blanket Crochet Pattern is one of my Handmade Crocheted Creations designs that is near and dear to my heart. I was so blessed in taking part in the raising of my niece. She was the 1st baby where I got to listen to every coo and cry; hear her 1st words spoken; watching her 1st steps; and growing up to be a beautiful person inside and out.
Every stitch, every row, all the trials and tribulations with the design were an outpouring of my love for my niece, her husband and of course her baby.
My niece and her husband had been trying for years to have a baby. There were many prayers prayed; so many things that they had to endure. Finally, after almost 10 years of trying they were blessed with a baby boy, Caiden.

The Mae’s Flower Garden Afghan was designed with love and appreciation for the people who influence us with our love of crochet and for the legacy they leave behind.
This post contains affiliate links.
In this post, I am sharing a FREE crochet pattern of the Mae’s Flower Garden Afghan.
Story Behind the Design
Thank you for your interest in my Mae’s Flowers Crochet Pattern. This is a project that has been in the works for over 25 years. My gram started making these flowers for an Afghan back in 1994. I inherited the Afghan when she passed away about 20 years ago. It moved from house to house, taken out every once in a while, and I always said I was going to finish it and I have.
I decided I would write out the steps she did and turn it into a crochet pattern. I took the flowers apart to learn the stitches she used, so I could make my own. This pattern is dedicated to Gram. She was a very important part of my life. I hope you enjoy making the Mae’s Flowers too!
The FREE crochet pattern of the Mae’s Flower Garden Afghan below is for a Throw Size. I do have a premium copy of the Mae’s Flower Garden Crochet Pattern for $5 at my Ravelry Store. It contains:

The Leaf Applique Crochet Pattern has 2 different leaf crochet patterns inside. I have used these appliques to embellish flower crochet patterns and used them in my Blooming Flowers Wall Hanging CAL.
I made my leaf appliques in 3 different colors. In total I made 6 of the smaller leaves and 6 of the larger leaves. You can make as many of these leaf appliques to add as many leaves as you’d like for your version of the Blooming Flowers Wall Hanging.
