I found a really fun crochet pattern for this bearded beanie thanks to a friend on facebook tagging me in a post. I let my son pick his colors, and got to it. It's really quick to work up, and the pattern was easy to read. And free. I love free patterns ^_^
This is using the small beard, which was just perfect for my 4 yr old! Can you tell he likes it?
You can make your own using this great pattern from I'm Topsy Turvy here.

I recently bought a bunch of yarn when someone was destashing...I made out like a bandit ;) I've only been crocheting a few months, and got quickly addicted, so this was like Jackpot to me!! Well, it led to a little space problem..my little yarn storage area was over flowing.
So I searched for a basket pattern, and found this fun Spikes Yarn Basket pattern by Gleeful Things. And the best part? It's a free pattern!!!
This is my final result, and I stuffed it with some yarn that I'm going to be using on another project :)

One of my besties is having her first girl..she already has 3 boys, so this little princess-to-be is sure to be spoiled rotten!!! I've decided to take this opportunity to make my very first baby blanket! I hope it turns out nice, because I really feel like it's time for me to branch out from hats and scarves lol.
I purchased some super soft yarn from Tokai Craft Heart, which is a little craft store here in Okinawa. The choices of yarn there were amazing and plentiful. Thankfully I knew I wanted light pink and grey, which are the colors Heather chose for her baby girl. She's also doing a dragonfly theme, so I may try and find a pattern that incorporates that as well.
Anyway, back to the yarn. I have no idea what the label says, but some googling led me here and helped me at least translate that it's best used with a Japanese sz 6 hook, which is a US 3.5mm. I'm actually using a sz 5mm hook..shhh ;)
Here's a little shot of how it's coming along. I'm doing 3 rows of each color, and have another, darker grey to incorporate as well :)
But wait, there's more!!! The pattern I'm using...free!!! It's the Chevron Crochet Baby Blanket found here by The Experimental Home. Thanks so much for this great pattern!
