Men’s Tool Belt Free Crochet Pattern

There are not very many crochet patterns for men out there. I recently designed an apron for men and it sparked an idea for this men’s tool belt design. This is a great pattern for him to get organized when he works on a project. He can put certain tools in the pockets that will be needed for his upcoming project. You can even customize this crochet pattern for women too!

You can find a premium copy of the Men’s Tool Belt at my Ravelry Store or LoveCrafts or my Etsy Shop that contain Picture Tutorials and Step-by-Step instructions.

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

I used Caron One Pound 16 oz/812 yd (1454 g/742 m)

Materials:
US Hook J/ 6 mm
500-600 yds of #4 Worsted Weight Yarn
Scissors
Tapestry Needle
Stitch Marker

Gauge:
US Hook J/6 mm
12 hbdc x 8 rows = 4”

Gauge Swatch:
R1: ch 14, hdc in 3rd ch from hook, hbdc in each st across. turn (12 st)
R2: ch 2, hbdc in each rem st across. (12 st)
R3-R8: Repeat R2

Abbreviations/Stitches Used:
ch = chain
sl st = slip stitch
fdc = foundation double crochet
rep = repeat
rem = remaining
SM = stitch marker

Special Stitches:
Herringbone Double Crochet:
1. yarn over, insert hook into the next stitch and pull up a loop (3 loops on hook)
2. pull first loop straight through the second (similar to a slip stitch)
3. yarn over, pull through 1 loop again. (2 loops on hook)
4. yarn over and pull through both loops.

Notes:
* I used 2 strands of yarn held together to create a thicker tool belt.
* the stitch count is a multiple of 6 if you want to customize the size of your tool belt.
* there are 2 options to choose from in creating the waist ties.
* ch 1 does not count as a st.
* ch 3 counts as the 1st dc.
* alt ch 2 counts as the 1st dc.
* be sure to count your stitches once and awhile.

Video Tutorials:

Left Hand FDC here.
Left Hand HBDC here.
Right Hand FDC here.
Right Hand HBDC here.

Adding Waist Tie at the end of the row here.

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

Customizing:

The tool belt can be crocheted for anyone. Below you will find the gauge broken down into inches for that perfect fit.

Step 1:
Measure the front side of the waist from 1 hip to the other. This will be your main tool belt piece.

Step 2:
Using your measurements from Step 1, divide the amount of stitches needed in half, this will give you your waist tie measurements.

**If you would like to make the waist ties longer, be sure to add the amount of stitches needed before you begin crocheting the tool belt**

Step 3:
For the height of the tool belt, measure from the hips down to mid-thigh. This will decide the number of rows you add before the waist ties are added.

Step 4:
Use the gauge below to choose the number of rows needed to meet the tool belt height.

Step 5:
Choose which option of the tool belt you would like to make and move on to the pattern below. Again, Option 1 adds waist ties right to the tool belt and Option 2 allows you to make them separately.

Gauge:
3 st x 2 rows = 1”
6 st x 4 rows = 2”
9 st x 6 rows = 3”
12 st x 8 rows = 4 “

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

There is a story behind the creation of the BlueBerry Waffle Beanie. I designed a hat 2 years ago for Lion Brand Yarn and their #HatNotHate hat drive called the Blue Seuss Slouchy Hat. To show my support again this year, I designed the 2 versions of the BlueBerry Waffle Beanie. Here is what Lion Brand has to say about #HatNotHate:

“With #HatNotHate Lion Brand Yarn hopes to increase awareness on the impact of bullying has on children, teens and adults by rallying together and crafting blue hats to proudly wear throughout the month of October, National Bullying Prevention Month. With your help we hope to create a new “craftivist” movement to send the message that bullying in unacceptable.”

My daughter experienced Bullying and seen some of the harsh side effects Bullying can cause. This is why I feel SO strongly and have been designing Blue Hats to show my support against this cruel behavior. Because my daughter loves Waffles I decided to design this waffle stitch beanie to show my support. You will find 2 versions of the BlueBerry Waffle Beanie in this post.

Send your hats to:

Step 2: count 3 V-St to the Right and feed 1 strap through the front in the space between the 3rd & 4th V-Stitch from the starting spot.
Step 3: Tie a knot at the end of the strap leaving 5-7 sc showing.
Step 4: Count over 7 V-St and feed the remaining strap from the inside of the Purse out.
Step 5: Tie a Knot at the end of the Strap leaving 5-7 sc showing.

Second Strap:

Step 1: From the Starting Point count 3 V-Stitches to the Left and feed 1 strap through the front in the space between the 3rd & 4th V-Stitch from the starting spot.
Step 2: Tie a knot at the end of the Strap leaving 5-7 sc showing.
Step 3: Count over 7 V-St and feed the remaining strap from the inside of the purse out.

Yarn for Menstrual Health

I wanted to talk to you about a taboo subject that most people don’t like to talk about, Menstrual Awareness. During the months of March to May there are quite a few organizations out there that try and spread the word about this taboo subject. These organizations talk about menstrual hygiene and spreading awareness for young girls, just like the girls below need to hear about.

One of the organizations I want to talk to you about started the Yarn for Menstrual Health campaign, but first I wanted to share a little bit about my story as a young girl.

I wish this was a topic we talked about when I was a young girl. I started my menstrual cycle when I was 12 years old. This was not a topic talked about in my household, even though there were over 10 women in it. While I was away at camp I started my period. I had NO idea what was happening or how to deal with it. I was so afraid to talk to anyone about it or even go to the nurse to find out how to handle it. For my first period I used toilet paper the whole time, this was not very hygienic to say the least.

The week at camp was not an experience I remember fondly. The whole time I was so scared! I was afraid everyone would make fun of me if they found out. The whole time I was there all that ran through my mind was what is happening to me? Does it show? Did I use enough toilet paper? Was I bleeding through my clothes?

As a 12 year old girl in 6th grade I didn’t know how to handle it at school either. My mom wrote a note to my teacher asking if I could go to the restroom by myself so I didn’t have to take care of it in front of other girls. Not only was this embarrassing enough, but the 6th grade teacher was a man! In 6th grade all toilet stalls did not have a door, so there was no privacy. I was terrified, not wanting anyone to know what was happening to me.

I know there are girls out there that are going through the same things I did. I know there are others who probably have it worse because they are in situations where they can’t get a hold of or afford the needed supplies. I know when I was 12 I had no clue these things even existed!

Yarn for Menstrual Health Campaign

So let’s talk about Yarn for Menstrual Health campaign. A woman named Haseeta together with Morines Shop and the African Girl Foundation started this campaign. It was created to bring awareness about the unhygienic circumstances most school girls across Kenya endure during their menses. She along with the ladies in her group had pledged to make 1,000 hats to be distributed by the African Girl Foundation where they will also distribute menstrual packs to various schools in 2021.

Their aim is to normalize conversations on menstrual health. Similarly, they are raising funds to equip everyone in need with reusable sanitary kits. These sanitary kits cost $10 and consists of 4 reusable pads and washing soap to last an entire year. How awesome is this?!

Not only is menstrual hygiene an issue in Kenya, but this is an issue young girls in the US face as well. Some schools are starting to talk to girls about menstrual hygiene and how to prepare them on how to handle it. But this is still a subject no one likes to hear about.

Poverty, no matter where it is at, plays a huge roll in menstrual hygiene. Most young girls and women can’t afford to purchase the sanitary products they need because of the expense. Some women are having to decide whether to buy sanitary products or food. How awful would it be if you or your child had to choose one of these options?

To help bring awareness to young girls and women, there are many great organizations out there that are trying to raise awareness about menstrual health and hygiene. The Yarn for Menstrual Health is one of these great organizations. You can find out more about this campaign at the link below.

Here in the US, you can find more information about menstrual hygiene at everydayhealth.com and sanitary ways to handle periods for young girls and women.

Diamonds Square Crochet Pattern

I am happy to bring you my Diamonds Square Crochet Pattern that was designed specifically for the Friendship Blanket CAL hosted by Helen and Sara of Sunflower Cottage Crochet.

In designing the blanket, we wanted to bring you squares that have texture and definition. When crocheting the diamond square you will see a lot of texture and definition in the shapes that appear.

When designing the square and thinking about the blanket, I wanted to cover you in what every person loves, Diamonds! With the finished look of the square it reminds me of the diamond pattern that shows up in Argyle Socks. lol

The diamonds square crochet pattern uses the basic crochet stitches found in many crochet patterns. I used the Argyle Shell Stitch. If you are unfamiliar with this stitch, there are helpful picture and video tutorials in the pattern below.
