Let's Talk Overalls

June 25, 2015

Overalls have been trending now for the past year or so. My first reaction was "yuck!" (and believe me when I say, I don't blame you if you still feel this way)...

I Made a Headband!

January 19, 2015

Hey guys! I'm excited to say I'm moving swiftly through my crochet projects. I find so much joy in being able to make things I would normally buy, and let me tell you, it's mighty fulfilling getting compliments on things handmade (thank you friends!). 

I really hope I can be an encouragement to any of you retired crocheters or those of you who have always wanted to take a go at this craft. It's loads of fun and there are so many people out there sharing there tips and patterns online. 

Pleas check out Stephanie's Crochet Blog! She is so inspiring, with great visual patterns, and amazing pictures of her assortment of crochet'd projects, from stuffed animals to mittens to coffee sleeves. Or my personal favorite – the Bobble Bearded Beanies (which all my future kiddos will be wearing one day)!

Yep, you guessed it, my most recent project was a knotted headband. Do yourself a favor and check out the ones Stephanie made (much more professional looking than mine), and don't miss the pictures at the bottom of the post featuring her and a friend modeling the headbands in taupe and mustard.

I chose to make mine with green yarn to match my eyes, but since it was such an easy and fast project, I'll probably end up reproducing more in lots of different colors to match all my outfits! (muahaha)

Please keep scrolling for the pattern.

Materials Needed:

5 mm crochet hook
yarn, medium weight (ex: Lion Brand Yarn’s Vanna’s Choice)
crochet needle

When you finish, put on your headband and do a little happy dance.

Happy Crocheting!
