    My Favorite Party Hat- Knitting Pattern

    The thing about a party hat is that it should be like nobody else’s in the room.

But only the coolest of knitters show up with their own custom party hat that everyone will be jealous of!   Every knitter needs a favorite party hat for whatever reason you have to celebrate. This fun and quirky hat will be a…

    Punch Needle Bunny- DIY Craft

    Hey everyone! It’s Amy from curiouspapaya. Maybe it’s this exceptionally cold weather – but it feels like this year’s winter has been EXTRA long! I’m itching to feel the sunshine again. (Okay, I know I shouldn’t be complaining because I live in California – but even here, we’ve been needing to gear up in uggs and heavy parkas for the 30 degree mornings and freeze warnings).  Anywho, what better time to try out a new hobby while we’re bundled up at home? Ever since I saw Country Peony’s punch needling…

    Pixie Pebble Bucket Hat- Crochet Pattern

    Hi loves! It’s me, The Crochet Faerie, back with ANOTHER Pixie Pebble Design. I just can’t help myself, but can you blame me? This stitch pattern is cute, fun, easy, and works up so quickly! What’s not to love? I will eventually advance my focus to more intricate patterns and textures, but I think it’s essential to also enjoy where we are at the given moment. The Pixie Pebble series was something I started as a chronically ill person in the midst of extreme brain fog. I struggled to come…

    Projector Cover- Sewing Pattern

    To all my fellow sewists out there, have you ever felt the slow back pain creeping in when you’re cutting, taping, and cutting (again) paper patterns? (Maybe it’s because I often do this when I’m sitting on the floor since I don’t have a big enough table.) But anyway, if I’m being honest, putting paper patterns together is one of my least favorite parts of sewing. Not only that, but you also have to consider how to store these patterns after you’re done both physically and electronically (for printed PDF…

    Hey Clover Family, are you an avid reader that enjoys cross-stitching? Well, I have the perfect spring bookmark for you! Today I will share how to create a cross-stitch bookmark using my new blooming poppies pattern. Poppies symbolize so many things, but they are most known for remembrance, hope, and undying love.

Here are the materials that you’ll need to create this bookmark:…

    Something Knitted, Something Blue Wedding Shawl- Knitting Pattern

      Greetings fellow crafters! Hannah here, the knitwear designer, blogger, and maker behind Bears Den Essentials (@bearsdenessentials) with some exciting updates on my end. I am happy to announce a brand new pattern that I will actually be wearing to my wedding in just under a week! I live in Montana, where it can snow up to twelve months out of the year, so having a February wedding where I’ll be outside meant figuring out some cute but functional layering options.    I’ve known since I was a little girl…

    Lucky Beanie-Knitting Pattern

    How about a little luck? Today I’m going to show you how to make an adorable yet simple Leprechaun belt beanie in teen/small adult size. St. Patrick’s Day has always been a big holiday in our house. My second daughter was born 8 days after and she loves everything green and clovers (even now at age 10!). We’ve got blankets, stuffed animals, sunglasses, shirts, you name it. It’s also been a fairly common request over the years I’ve been on Etsy to make people a hat they can wear for…
