Crochet Hooded Cowl: A Pattern for Beginners

by Lindsey

It is that moment that you are sitting at the bus stop, your son is wearing his brand new coat and is still cold because it does not have a hood. I should have bought a coat with a hood. It doesn’t matter if the coat is a super cute grey and red plaid. There is just no hood. Well, that is when this crafty mom crochets up the beginner’s crochet hooded cowl.

Yes, I am that mom, who overlooked a simple detail when buying clothes. When the bus comes at 7:30 am, I am just happy to have the kids out of bed, dressed and lunches in their bags. Now with the cold weather, I have to think about gloves, hats, and scarves. With a 6-year-old, simpler is better, so a hooded cowl plays both hat and scarf. It just helps me have one less piece to have to grab.

For the Heirloom Doll I decided to create a dress that does not require buttons or velcro to fasten. This makes it safer for young children, like my 22 month old daughter.

Heirloom Crochet Doll Pattern

by Lindsey

I can’t tell you how much my Grandmother’s handmade gifts have inspired many of my own designs. She made me so many handmade gifts growing up but it is her simple rag dolls that inspired the Heirloom Crochet Doll.

When I was a child, my grandmother made all her granddaughters rag dolls. They were 2-3 feet tall and had clothes for dressing. They were simply two pieces of cloth cut into a doll shape and sewn together. We loved their hand painted faces and yarn hair. They were a truly simple design that left a lasting impression on us. Nothing is more special than a handmade gift.

Butterfly Baby Blanket Crochet Pattern

by Lindsey

Quilted baby blankets are a tradition in my family. So when it came to making my daughter’s baby blanket I knew I needed to make something that at least look quilted. I fell in love with hexagons while making the Hubby Hexagon Blanket, so it just made sense to make my baby girl a hexagon butterfly baby blanket.

My grandmother and best friend have quilted for quite a while now and I am just in love with the quilted look. I can make a quilt, but my passion is with crochet. So a quilt look alike blanket is enough for me.
