Free Acorn Hat, Scarf and Purse Crochet Pattern From Donna's Crochet Designs

 The first in this set of three patterns is the Acorn Purse. I used Homespun brand yarns and mixed two colors to get this unique look. I also appliqued on acorns and leaves to get a nice fall feel to the project.

 Here is the Acorn Hat. Any heavy weight yarn will work just as well as the Homespun did. I just happened to have this one hand and thought it time to use it.

Here is the last pattern in the set: Acorn Scarf. Normally I try to publish my free patterns separately and then forget to let you all know about the second or third so I decided to do them all at one time.
The set would make a great gift. You know that time of year is just around the corner!

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.)

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.

Here is the pattern!
