Pet Bandana Free Crochet Pattern

Pet Bandana Free Crochet Pattern

Today I want to share with you the Pet Bandana Free Crochet Pattern.  Doesn’t my Maze look beautiful wearing her bandana?

Pets can seem like our babies and part of the family.  You add accessories to your outfits and your family’s outfits, so why not accessorize your pet as well with the Pet Bandana.  Use your scrap yarn and make these in every color of the rainbow.  The pet bandana free crochet pattern has 3 sizes you can choose from.

 

My beautiful kitty, Maze was a rescue.  My son worked in a factory that used heavy machines and equipment.  My son knew how much I loved animals, so he called me upset telling me what happened and asked me to take her in because she was starving.

My hubby wasn’t too happy with me at the time, As soon as he seen my son holding her his heart melted and he fell in love with her!  Maze is more his cat than mine, but she is loved and appreciated just the same.

My Maze, and I am sure your pet too, brings me so much comfort and joy.  She curls up in my lap and as soon as I touch her, my heart just melts.  I pray your pets sooth you as they burrow into your hearts as well.

Freyja Nordic Necklace

The Freyja Nordic Necklace Crochet Pattern is one of those crochet patterns that you can customize from what it was originally designed for.  A little farther below you will see it how my testers customized theirs using thinner yarn for a person’s necklace; or used for a Hat Band; or used for a Wrist Band; or used for a Cat & Dog Necklace using both DK Weight and Worsted/Aran Weight Yarn.

So, why not even try different thicknesses of yarn to make yourself one!  You will find a free crochet pattern of the Freyja Nordic Necklace below.

 

 

The Freyja Nordic Necklace Crochet Pattern came to be because my son loves anything to do with Norse History.  That is why he named his dog Freyja.  Ever since she was a puppy I loved to dress her up.  My son even started asking me to make things for Freyja lol.  So I decided to design something that relates to Nordic History and Freyja’s name.  This is how I came up with this design.

Note:  you may need to measure your pet’s neck to reach your desired circumference.  The stitch count below may need to be adjusted.

Step 2:
It might be a good idea to check your chain count before you start R1, you may need to adjust the chain count below to fit the circumference of your pet’s neck.

 

ch 13 (25, 36, 48).  sl st in 1st st to join.

R1: ch 4, *ts around, being sure to go into the ch as well.  sl st in ch 3 of the ch 4 to join.  do NOT turn

R2: ch 4, *ts around.  sl st in top of ch 3 of the ch-4 sp to join.  do NOT turn

Repeat R2 until you reach the desired height of the cowl.

Fasten off and weave in ends.

This is another crochet pattern my Gram designed.  She designed a flower granny square that I found in more of her stuff I inherited of hers over 25 years.

I decided to take apart her flower granny square to see how she designed it.  I did not know what kind of flower she used, so I looked it up on Google and it is a Viola flower. 

You can get the premium version of the Granny Viola Scarf crochet pattern that has 3 crochet patterns in 1 for a small fee, visit my Ravelry or LoveCrafts or Etsy.

Welsh Poncho Free Crochet Pattern

Welsh Poncho Free Crochet Pattern

 

 

Are you looking to add a little luxury to your wardrobe?  Well, using the Welsh Poncho Free Crochet Pattern will help you achieve just that!

The Welsh Poncho Crochet Pattern uses a crochet stitch that I fell in love with last year, the Triad Stitch.  The Triad Stitch is just like a Puff Stitch, only it is done over 3 stitches.

The Triad Stitch has one meaning that I fell in love with, this is where I came up with it’s name Welsh.  Triad means a Welsh form of literary composition with an arrangement of subjects or statements in groups of three.

If you think about a crochet pattern it is made up of 3 things:

  • using crochet stitches to create the design
  • a composition of writing the crochet pattern
  • taking pictures to showcase the design

I first used the Triad Stitch in my Welsh Braided Cowl Crochet Pattern (see info below)  In the designing of the Welsh Braided Cowl I using another meaning of Triad, the braiding of three things together, this is where the Braided part of the design came in.  You can find out more about this below.

This kind of sounds like an English lesson, doesn’t it?!  lol

Suzy’s Cloths

Suzy’s Cloths – Washcloth and Burp Cloth

The Suzy’s Cloths are the perfect crochet pattern to make and gift to new mother’s at a Baby Shower.

This post contains affiliate links

New mother’s may not realize how much babies get sick during burping or after.  Also, they might not think about putting a cloth or towel on their shoulder or under they baby’s face while burping them.

I don’t know HOW many times I did not do this myself!   It is a great idea to do this, because not only will the parent have to change the baby, but they will have to change themselves.  lol

Lacey Scarf Crochet Pattern

The Lacey Scarf Crochet Pattern is a new crochet pattern design that creates a nice lacy scarf that has a great drape.  It uses Truboo yarn from Lion Brand Yarn that creates a nice soft airy, lacy texture.  I am excited about this crochet design of the Lacey Scarf!

Below you will find out more information about the stitches used in the Lacey Scarf Crochet Pattern and all the information needed to make your own version!

The Lacey Scarf Crochet Pattern uses a crochet stitch that I designed a couple of years ago, the Lilac Cluster Stitch.  The Lilac Cluster Stitch uses the DC6TOG, Double Crochet 6 Together and the DC3TOG, Double Crochet 3 Together.

Because of this stitch is also used in the Lacey Scarf Crochet Pattern I made a Video Tutorial specifically for this design using my DC6TOG, Double Crochet 6 Together.  Therefor the video demonstrates how to do this stitch specifically for the Lacey Scarf.

 

 

I also made a Video Tutorial demonstrating the DC3TOG, Double Crochet 3 Together specifically used in the Lacey Scarf Crochet Pattern.
