Free Octopus Crochet Pattern From Donna's Crochet Designs

This guy just makes me smile. The free pattern is here. The octopus uses bright colors to catch the eye. I also put squeakers and rattles in some of the legs. And that necklace he is wearing is actually a baby teething ring. You can get the squeakers at places like etsy or got to a pet store and look in the dog toy isle. They usually have packages of replacement squeakers there. The rattle is a super simple one I made my self. He is just an over all fun guy!

Here is one of this week's free patterns: Tiny Penguins! They are only 1-3/4" tall but add the hat and they are 2-1/2" tall. I knew hats were great to cover up bald spots, but I didn't know they could make you taller too!

Free Crochet Pattern Stripe Blocks & Flowers Afghan

I've been so busy so busy re-doing my free pattern site I've forgotten to post about this week's free pattern.
It's a light weight afghan perfect for snuggling under on cool nights. I call it Stripe Blocks and Flowers Afghan. The blocks are crocheted separately and then sewn together alternating their direction so its a great take along project.

While you're there check out all the changes I've made to the site. There are faster page loads, pdfs of almost all my patterns (I still have a few to go!) and you can still see the written pattern if you want. (That's a pet peeve of mine by the way. I hate being forced to download a pdf just to look over a pattern that I may or may not want.)
