Easter Bonnets

Remember Easter Bonnets? Those cute little straw hats with the ribbons and flowers on them? I loved Easter because that meant getting to wear a hat to church, to my Grandma's house etc. I never thought they were very comfortable, but I still liked them!

Now that I have two little girls of my own, I've noticed that Easter Hats/Bonnets aren't really readily available anymore! It's kind of a lost little tradition now. Really though, even if I could find them, since they do tend to be so scratchy, I doubt I could keep my girls from tearing them off in 30 seconds or less! I'd still like them to have Easter Hats though, so I made one!

I think this would be cute all spring and summer anyways, but especially on Easter! Don'tchya just love it! I do!

Blackberry Puffball Hat

I'm SO excited to show off my newest creation! I've had this particular ball of yarn sitting around forever. I'd bought it when I first learned to crochet, and quickly found out that it's not the easiest yarn to work with, espcecially for a beginner. I got frustrated and put it away. I pulled it out a couple of nights ago to practice making this hat for someone who'd requested it for a newborn. The yarn had not come in yet, but I didn't want my first run to be with yarn that was actually for an order (just in case I totally tore up the yarn!), and here's the end result! I'm in love with it!!!

Snowflake on a Double Skinny

Anyone else notice the lack of snow this winter? Yesterday and today I was able to take my girls to the park in nothing more than a sweatshirt on both of them... One little boy was playing barefoot!

Amidst this 'non-winter' I did happen to come accross one cute little snowflake... On my daughter's head that is! I made this little headband for her hours before we left to go to church on Christmas Eve. She's not a big headband girl, in fact, this was the first one she ever kept on! My guess is that the two little bands are so light, she didn't really notice they were there.

The bands are not stitched together, so they can appear as one or be separated to look like to even skinnier bands! I made this with a snowflake for Christmas, but I can also create it with a flower, heart, clover, Easter egg, or any other idea you've got for it! Just let me know and I'll create a custom listing for you in my Etsy Shop.

Hat and Scarf set

2 years ago for Christmas, I gave my sister an IOU for this hat and scarf. I'd had every intention of finishing it before Christmas Eve (when we do gifts), and I was pretty on my game with all of my crocheted gifts. But, then my mom got sick and almost died. She got to come home on Christmas Eve, but we spent the entire week before Christmas in hospital waiting rooms, and I couldn't very well crochet my sisters gift while she was sitting right next to me!

It took me some time to get her set finished (photography, toddler, had a baby, then a newborn etc), but, by the time the weather started to turn cool again, it was done and she loved it!

This set is available in my Etsy Shop!
