My version of a Inauguration Chapeau

I recently had a request for a Chapeau, and we both liked this pattern. I did change a little bit on it to make it my own, but it turned out great! I cant wait to see it on the little girl. If you are looking for a pattern I have included the link that I worked off of! Have fun.

Headband work in progress

Here is a current "work in progress" headband missing a flower still, but almost done! I love this pattern since its stretchy and with the right yarn can really keep the head warm. This one is for a badger fan!

Begginers Washcloth Pattern

I find that a simple pattern for these for begginers is all you really need, I started knitting these when I was 14 and stayed with my grandparents in Wisconsin. As I got older I found that I preferred to crochet these because the stitches were tighter and they lasted allot longer. So I hope you like the pattern! ENJOY




Ch- Chain
Sc- Single Crochet
Ss- Slip Stitch


I used a size G hook or a 4.25MM, You can use any size hook but keep in mind the bigger the hook is the looser the stitches will be.

Ch- 26, Sc in second chain from last chain, continue till you come to the end,
 {Flip and Sc in next 25 stitches}  Continue this till you have 30 rows
after you have finished your row, take the yarn and pull so there is a big loop, cut the yarn from the skein Pull threw the hole and pull tight. weave the extra yarn into the side or top stitches

Joann's and Mobil Coupon's

I went to Joann's the other day to purchase yarn. I have a couple projects that I am working on, but I forgot my coupon. To my astonishment they accept Mobil coupons, but did you know that its not on there site? I had taken my time yesterday to at least save the coupon to my phone in chance they might take it that way and I leave the paper one at home. To my astonishment Yeap they did and I was able to use it twice! So to anyone looking for the coupon here ya go! Have fun!

Crocheting for Charity

I recently came across different charities that allow you to donate Crochet item's, such as hat's, blankets, baby booties etc. I have always crochet things for other people but never thought to donate them. So I made it my mission to crochet and donate as many hats and blankets as I can. Along the way I have come across some really good patterns, Of course I do alter them to make it my own style. Here is an example of a hat that I have made! This was made with 100% cotton. I love the colors!
