The stitch pattern is simple and the moebius construction is interesting enough to become a conversation piece. Everyone lov...

This is a super easy pattern made in a spiral so there is no joining or seaming. I really like the look of the reverse side of the half-double crochet stitch so I designed this pattern to showcase it but it is fully reversible and easily adjustable for length. The pattern is simple enough that it works well for men or women. To make a wider cow...

Two patterns for two easy to crochet bags… one is a stretchy market bag for groceries or the beach, the other is a mini mesh bag perfect for your camera, phone and wallet.

A light lacy pair of wrist warmers for spring. The butterfly stitches along the sides provide a place for your thumb, your watch, or neither. Keeps your arms warm in the cool spring breeze or in an over-cooled office. You’d be amazed at how much these can warm you up!
