All I ask is that you don't copy the patterns to sell or to post on other websites (without my permission). However, you may print out any of the patterns to use to make items for your own personal use or to make items to sell to others or to sell in craft shows or craft stores, through a home craft business, etc. Suehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16235894365796453301noreply@blogger.comBlogger68125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2460751944933123521.post-76979528858804188882021-03-18T07:18:00.000-07:002021-03-18T07:18:09.797-07:00<p><b> </b><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;"><b>I am discontinuing my website in early September this year, 2021.</b> All my patterns are here on this blog, however the complete pattern isn't posted for all patterns.

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'm not a fan of sewing pieces together, so I made a sweater pattern in the round. The only sewing is at the shoulders. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Learn how to do the braided puff stitch. This is a wonderful pattern, very warm and the color combinations you could come up with would look great. It's not hard to do, after a few rows or rounds you will have the pattern down and it will flow easily. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Although it is thick, you only use worsted weight yarn. A chunky yarn would make it very thick as well as much bigger "braids". Here's an up close look at the "braids". </span><br />

Make these plain or add some snow, balls, etc. Use your imagination!<br />
<br />
Make these as a decoration for your tree or to hang in your home. String a lot of them together and make a garland decoration.<br />
<br />
Make any size you want by using different yarn types or thread with the appropriated sized hook that works well with your yarn/thread.<br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>MATERIALS</b> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Yarn:</b> 4 ply worsted weight. I used Mary Maxim Starlette Worsted Weight yarn. This pattern is worked with 2 strands of yarn held together. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Hook:</b> 7.00 mm</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Gauge:</b> 3 sc = 1 inch, 2 rows of sc = 1 inch</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Size:</b> Women's adult. My hands are small so for larger mittens, add more rows on the cuff (ending with an even number of rows), and more rounds on the mitten . I added instructions on where to add or subtract rounds for larger or smaller mittens.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Mitten measures about 4 inches across the back of hand. Mitten is 10 inches long, including the cuff, 7 inches excluding the cuff.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>MATERIALS</b><br /><b>Yarn:</b> 4 ply worsted weight yarn. I used Red Heart Super Saver in Grape Fizz. a 141 g skein, and I had lots left over.<br /><b>Hook:</b> 4.50 mm. These fit me and my hands are quite small so if your hands are an average size you might want to use a 5.00 mm hook. However, the mittens are stretchy.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Crocheted or knitted boot slippers are the big thing now. I have found most </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">patterns are for knit, so I decided to design a few for crochet. These would </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">make great Christmas gifts. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I used a lighter color yarn to make all these new boot slipper patterns as </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">a lighter color will show up the stitches much better in the photos than a </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">dark color. However, these slippers would look great in any color.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">MATERIALS<br /><br />Yarn: I used black and white 4 ply worsted weight. I'm not sure how much I used because I always buy larger skeins like Redheart Supersaver , 7 oz, 364 yards. I had a lot of yarn left over from these large skeins.<br /><br />Hook: 5.00 mm<br /><br />Size: Women's adult, 9.5 to 10 inch foot. You could use different hook sizes to get different sized slippers.<br /><br />Gauge: 4 sc = 1 inch, 3 rows of sc = 1 inch<br /><br />Abbreviations used:<br />ch - chain<br />ss - slip stitch<br />sc - single crochet<br />tbl - through back loops tr - treble crochet<br />sc2tog - single crochet 2 together.<br /><br /><br />I used black yarn for the soles and white yarn for the rest of the slippers. But they would look great in any color. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">MATERIALS<br />Yarn: 4 ply worsted weight. I used Redheart Supersaver. I am not sure how much I used as I bought the larger skeins and only used a small amount of both colors.<br />Hook: 5.00 mm<br />Size: Will fit a 9 to 9.5 inch foot. For a smaller size I would try using a 4.50 mm hook and for larger sizes I would try using a 5.50 mm or 6.00 mm hook.<br /><br /><br />Gauge: 4 sc = 1 inch, 3 rows of sc = 1 inch<br /><br /><br />Abbreviations used:<br />ch - chain<br />sc - single crochet<br /> hdc - half double crochet<br />Rnd - Round<br /><br />How To Make the Star Stitches for this pattern:<br />(Note: I go through the "loop under the top loops" of the hdc. See my blog post at http://suescrochetknit.blogspot.ca/2014/01/the-star-stitch.html for a photo of where to find that loop. You could go through the top loops if you want, but I think it looks better if done through the loop under the top loops)<br /><br />Starting Star Stitch: For this pattern you will make the starting star stitch this way. This is the first star stitch of each round, after you make the hdc which each Rnd starts with, ch 2, insert hook into the 2nd chain, yarn over and pull up a loop, insert hook the same stitch where you made the hdc, yarn over and pull up a loop, insert hook into the next st of the Rnd, yarn over pull up a loop, insert hook into the next st of the Rnd, yarn over and pull up a loop, insert hook into the next st of the Rnd, yarn over and pull up a loop, yarn over and pull through all 6 loops on the hook. yarn over hook and pull through the loop on your hook to close the star stitch (this will form an "eye").<br /><br />The normal Star Stitches: Insert hook into the eye of previous star stitch, yarn over and pull up a loop, insert hook into the same place where you made the 5th st of the previous star stitch, yarn over and pull up a loop, then through each of the next 3 sts pulling up a loop in each one, yarn over and pull through all 6 sts on your hook. Yarn over and pull through the loop on your hook (same as doing a ch1) to close the eye of the star stitch.</span><br />

You make 1 slip stitch in a st of the previous Rnd, then 1 hdc in the next st. When you are going back across on the next Rnd, you make your ss in the hdc of previous Rnd and your hdc in the ss of the previous Rnd. My photos doesn't really show how neat the moss stitch looks. </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial;">Here is a video showing the moss stitch being worked and you get can a better view of how it looks.</span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial;"> </span><a href="http://youtu.be/tR2GfDB80tE" style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial;" target="new">http://youtu.be/tR2GfDB80tE</a><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This is another version of the Right Angle Rows Dishcloth. This one is a combination of ridged rows and a sc, ch 1 pattern. <br /><br />MATERIALS<br />Yarn: As always with my crocheted dishclothes, I used a lighter weight cotton yarn as I find it easier to wring out than the thicker dishcloths made with the 4 ply cotton. But any weight of cotton will do as you can make the dishcloth as big or small as you want as indicated in the instructions below.<br /><br />You can buy the perfect cotton yarn for crocheted dishcloths online at <a href="http://www.yarnsbay.ca/" target="_blank">Yarnsbay!</a> (Although at the time of posting this, the site is experiencing technical problems. When you place an order it will tell you that it doesn't ship to your location, when in fact they do as they have always shipped my orders before. Hopefully this will be fixed soon!) It is 100% cotton, lightweight (2 - fine), about half the thickness of standard cotton yarns. They are located in Ontario, Canada. They also ship to the U.S.<br />Hook: 4.0 mm<br /><br />Abbreviations used:<br />ch - chain<br />sc - single crochet<br />dc - double crochet sctog - single crochet together<br />dctog - double crochet together<br /><br />How to do the 3 sctog: insert into st, yarn over and pull up a loop, do the same in the next 2 sts, yarn over pull through all 4 loops on hook.<br /><br />I think this pattern is fun in that every row gets shorter and faster to do.<br /><br />I started with Ch 82 because I am user a lighter weight cotton yarn. (For different sizes with other weights of cotton, take the number of chs you normally start with, double that, add 3 for the center sts, add 1 for the turning ch.) </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This dishcloth is very easy to make (great for beginners) and very pretty too.<br /><br />MATERIALS<br />Yarn: Cotton yarn. As always with my crocheted dishclothes, I used a lighter weight cotton yarn as I find it easier to wring out than the thicker dishcloths made with the 4 ply cotton. But any weight of cotton will do as you can make the dishcloth as big or small as you want as indicated in the instructions below.<br /><br />You can buy the perfect cotton yarn for crocheted dishcloths online at <a href="http://www.yarnsbay.ca/" target="_blank">Yarnsbay</a>! (Although at the time of posting this, the site is experiencing technical problems. When you place an order it will tell you that it doesn't ship to your locations, when in fact they do as they have always shipped my orders before. Hopefully this will be fixed soon!) It is 100% cotton, lightweight (2 - fine), about half the thickness of standard cotton yarns. They are located in Ontario, Canada. They also ship to the U.S.<br />Hook: 4.0 mm<br /><br />Abbreviations used:<br />ch - chain<br />sc - single crochet<br />dc - double crochet</span><br />

But any weight of cotton will do as you can make the dishcloth as big or small as you want as indicated in the instructions below.<br /><br />Hook: 4.5 mm<br /><br />To make your color changes even, do the stitch before the color change as follows: insert hook into st, draw up a loop, drop the yarn and pick up your next color, yarn over hook and pull through the 2 loops on your hook. <br /><br />You do not have to cut the yarn and sew in any ends for this pattern, you bring the yarn along the row with you and crochet over it with the other color. <br /><br /><br />Abbreviations used:<br />ch - chain<br />sc - single crochet</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">C1 - Color 1<br />C2 - Color 2<br /><br /><br />You can use any colors you wish. I used blue yarn as my C1 and a a variegated yarn as my C2. You can also do your zigzag stripes in many different colors if you like. </span><br />
