Free Blue Flower Tote Crochet Pattern
These days I'm a lot slower but I still want to post a free pattern every week. First it was up every Sunday that eased into every Monday then a jump to Wednesday and now its Thursday and I don't know what happened to the week!
This tote was made with Lion brand homespun yarn but the flowers was made using Bernat baby coordinates yarn. I figure with most people lovely stashes of yarn you can probably use about whatever you have on hand to make it.
Enjoy!

This is a fairly easy pattern to make. I used one of the speciality yarns that was fat and fluffy and a mix of several yarns. Any heavy weight yarn will work equally as well.

The center is a bit of plastic glued to the front. A sandwich bag would work equally as well.

Tree Rug and Pillow Free Crochet Pattern
This week's pattern could easily be called a Christmas theme pattern, but I think it could work well for every day use especially if you change the colors.
It is called: Tree Rug and Pillow
What give this pattern a bit of punch is the blanket stitch edging I used around each section of the trees and the triangles that edge the rug and the pillow.
Any worsted weight yarn can easily be used in place of the suede yarn the pattern calls for.
Enjoy!

Some Of My Favrite Snowmen From Years Pass
This is a Tassel Snowman Ornament. What I really like about this guy is how easy he is to make. You just make a hollow snowman and then stuff the tassel in to give him a great wispy look.
Ahhh, Dance Of The Snow People. I think I'm more in love with the idea that after everyone has gone to bed the all snow people made that wintry day dress up and go to a midnight ball.
Peppermint Snowman At Top A Peppermint Pillow. He makes a great stand alone decoration.
But my all time favorite has to be these Snowman Faces. They are so versatile, you'd never get bored playing with these guys!

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!

Two Free Vintage Patterns
This week's vintage free pattern is actually 2 patterns.
One is what they called a Ski Sweater.
The second one is for a sleeveless sleeve dress.
Both are done in a worsted weight yarn so it should be easy to find a replacement yarn like from Red Heart or Bernat.
