TESTIMONIAL from Catherine Henderson

Joey Lea Baird of Jo’s Crafty Hook has created another stunning pattern she called ” The Changing Seasons Centerpiece.

She has created this centerpiece using basic stitches with several different finishes.

I was so excited & grateful for being part of her test team!

I worked on my version for a weekend This amazing centerpiece works up so fast, and changes with every new row. The pattern works great for either a left or right handed crocheter. With comprehensive easy to understand instructions and photos for reference.

I had so much fun making it, that I found myself rushing through my housework so I could sit down to work on my creation. I used Value Ball Kringle Sparkle Yarn 8ply, in fall colors, with a 3.5mm hook. You can find this fantastic pattern!

You can create your own beautiful blanket using the Mae’s Flower Garden Afghan Crochet Pattern. This is a great scrap busting project!

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 afghan can be made in a solid color or a variety of colors as you like. The flowers use such a small amount of yarn that you can use up ALL of that Scrap Yarn you have laying around!

You can find the premium copy of the Mae’s Flower Garden Crochet Pattern for $5 at my Ravelry Store. Inside the PDF copy of the Mae’s Flower Garden Afghan crochet pattern there are a lot of extra goodies for Right & Left Handed crocheters.

Catherine Shawl Free Crochet Pattern

The Catherine Shawl Free Crochet Pattern is a new crochet pattern I want to share with you. With Mother’s Day right around the corner the Catherine Shawl would be GREAT for Mother’s Day. This shawl would also be a great make for any season!

This post contains affiliate links.

I have been wanting to design a triangle shawl for a long time, but it always intimidated me. I came across some old pictures of a triangle shawl in my Memories on Facebook. I told myself “self, you have done this before so you can do it now!”

One of my friends on Facebook saw my old pictures and told me the shawl would be a perfect Mother’s Day gift idea. So I named the shawl after her, Catherine.

Easter Advent Calendar Event

The shawl would also be great to accessorize your Easter outfit for a beautiful Spring accessory.

The Catherine Shawl is being featured in the Easter Advent Calendar event hosted by My Fingers Fly.
