Sunshine beanie

I was thinking of making a beanie! It was headbands for some time.  The pattern is made with double crochets and single crochets. However, the result is a very textured and interesting triangle design. This airy pattern can be made using different colours to create stripes too. 

It took me a while to come up with the stitch count for the design. This is a free gift for those love to create textured beanies for the next Christmas markets. 

I know, it is the beginning of spring. 

But in Toronto, we are expecting more snow this week.  Perhaps you would really like a warmer beanie! What is your preference for now?

Hounds tooth crochet neckwarmer

Have you ever come across a crochet pattern that looks super advanced—but once you start stitching, it's actually very simple? That’s exactly how I felt when I started working on this houndstooth neck warmer!

In this new tutorial, I walk you through the steps to create a modern and stylish black & white neck warmer using the houndstooth stitch. This stitch might look intricate, but trust me—if you can do single crochet and double crochet, you’ve got this!
