Peppermint Purse & Scarf Free Crochet Pattern

I wanted to post something more in line with the holiday spirit.  What goes better with Christmas then Red & White & Peppermints?  How about this Peppermint Purse & Scarf set!

Both are made using worsted weight yarn.  You simply carry the unused yarn behind your stitches as you work them so dropping and picking up colors are a breeze.  For those who aren't familiar with the process here is a tutorial I made awhile back that should help illustrate the idea better.

I used a combination of both the yarns to make the fringe on the scarf and this big, chunky tassel at the bottom of the purse.  Feeling more in the holiday spirit yet?

Enjoy!

Black & White Hat, Scarf and Mittens Set Free Crochet Patterns

It's been a long time I know. 
I had a bad move to a rural area where power hits killed my hard drive before I found my surge protector.  Thank heavens for back ups!
So many things got mis-laid and probably more are still in boxes.  Yes I did label all the boxes like: Kitchen.  Problem is that was all I put on the boxes that held everything that goes into my kitchen, including food, towels, the junk drawer, etc.  It was 3 days before I found my pots and pans.
Today is my first day to republish my free pattern site after wading through copies of copies that were mirrored in my back up. It is for a HAT, SCARF and MITTENS that are made of blocks of color. 
As long as you know how to single crochet, double crochet (my favorite stitch combination for texture) and how to drop and pick up colors you can make this set.

The easiest to make is the scarf. 

You could change the colors to match the colors of a favorite football team or how about school colors.  Great way to earn a little extra cash making scarves in your school colors!

There is also a PURSE that can go with the set.

One or all would make nice gifts.

Maybe you could make a HAT for Uncle George, a SCARF for sister Sue, MITTENS for little Sammy and a PURSE  for Aunt Mable! 

Wouldn't you just love the look on their faces if they all showed up with their gifts! Especially if you made them all in the same two colors!

Enjoy!

HeadLine News Group of Free Vintage Crochet Patterns

Headline News is the name of this free vintage pattern.

The second free vintage pattern for this week is actually a small pamphlet of 4 different designs. All are crochet and around the 1940's in date.

The first one is called a Head Scarf, the second a Facinator and the third a Captivator. I don't know if the different names for basically the same article of clothing is just to separate the three or actual terminology of the time.

The last pattern in the set is a round shawl which is called (of course) a round shawl.

Looks to me like the trio could easily be converted into cowls, shawls and ponchos for a more modern look.


I hope you enjoy them.

I'm working on some vintage children's/baby patterns for next week!
