I’ve been crocheting more cowboy hats. This one is in hot pink and is just adorable. I changed the edging from the Stitch and Bitch pattern since I found the stitch it used to be very hard. It took way too long for me to go around the hat.
Think I will take a break [...]

I just decided to re-do the baby cowboy hat instead of frogging the one I had made. I also changed to a pink cotton instead of the tan cotton to make it even cuter. I am really pleased with how the second one turned out as it looks a lot better than the first one. [...]

My niece is going to a Dude Ranch next month, so I thought it’d be fun to do a cowboy hat for her since her older sister has one. She is one, and the only pattern I had was from the book The Happy Hooker. So I did less stitches and used a smaller hook. [...]

One of my passions is purses. I love buying them and making them – although I really haven’t made that many. Here is one I made for a friend. It started out as a market bag but turned more into a book bag as I don’t think it’s really her taste to use it everyday. [...]

My latest swap subject was Avatar The Last Airbender. My partner had a hat with an arrow on it on her WIST(wish list) and so I decided to make it for her. I used a lighter yarn since I knew she was hoping to receive items she could wear to the live action movie due [...]

I have another item to share from my most recent swap on Craftster. This was taken from my partner’s wist. I changed the colors to make it more ‘Firefly’ themed. This was my first time to make a flower of such size.

After finishing this, I really liked it. In fact, I’m tempted to make [...]

Here is my first venture into jewelry. It’s from a pattern found at Mademoiselle Chaos blog. She took a vintage shell pattern and made it into a wristlet or bracelet. I tried it first with thread crochet but just couldn’t get it so I used a cotton thread. Here it is after blocking.

I was [...]
