I need to rally you troops. Anyone that can. Our basement is flooded and it’s a mess. We are currently pumping out water but it’s coming in faster than we can get it out. Please share this post to your page, crochet friends and whoever you can. Purchase a pattern from me. I am having a pattern sale. I know $3 at a time. But every little bit will help. & I would never ask money for nothing. So purchase a pattern, they are digital downloads. Patterns only, because my yarn is underwater, along with all our other belongings. Use the code flooded get 20% off a pattern. We are going to have to tear the basement out and I have lost yarn, amongst the major things 🧶 🧶🧶🧶 I have about 7 patterns to choose from.

I can’t stop laughing at my amigurumi giraffe 🦒 ⠀ ⠀ I thought since all 3 of my boys are still sick I would make them each a stuffy. I found an adorable pattern and started around 9:30 last night. ⠀ ⠀ This is my first and last attempt at this very specific style of crochet. Though I make anatomical Hearts this is a whole other game I would need to devote hours, that at the moment I don’t have. ⠀ ⠀ So for now, mangled, devilish eyed, crooked ear, scary looking stuffies for the boys. 🤷🏻‍♀️ maybe the next 2 will be better. ⠀ ⠀ How do you make it look so amazing @a_touch_of_blu_designs , @knot.bad and @xerynx 🤔⠀ ⠀ #mittenmade #amigurumi #crochet #crochetlove #crochetaddict #crochetersofinstagram #crochetforlife #maker #makersgonnamake #giraffe #whatdidimake #fail ⠀ ⠀

Good morning y’all. It’s a beautiful Saturday morning and I am finally getting to work on planning a photo shoot for new pieces this season. This sweater will be one of them. ⠀ ⠀ Always something new to be working on. And with great friends and people, many hands make light work. ⠀ ⠀ Plus an idea has sprung into my brain for a table top hanging rack. I don’t know if it’s realistic or not but I do love how it looks in my head. 😁⠀ ⠀ ⠀ So back to the sweater, I decided to use Lion Brand scarfie, it’s light and a wool blend and the color options are forever amazing. ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #mittenmade #handmade #handcraft #spring #maker #makersgonnamake #yarnstagram #yarnstash #yarnofinstagram #crochet #crochetmaker #crochetaddict #crochetgirlgang #crochetastherapy #crochettoday #crochetlife #crochetpattern #pattern #crochetdesign #crochetdesigner #design #designer #yarn #makerlife #michiganmaker #michigan #craft #crafty https://www.instagram.com/p/B2rMkNfl43_/?igshid=kxughnsx71m0

Scarfie is back in play today. Working on the adjustments for the new sweater I am working on. It’s getting exciting because it’s almost done. ⠀ ⠀ Wouldn’t it be fantastic to premier these at a Holiday show this year??⠀ ⠀ That’s my goal. For the rest of the year short term goals. It seems that almost every year something new comes to mind a week or two before a holiday show. ⠀ ⠀ Que, Sera, Sera⠀ ⠀ P.s. if you know this song your my hero. ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ 💋⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #mittenmade #handmade #handcraft #spring #maker #makersgonnamake #yarnstagram #yarnstash #yarnofinstagram #crochet #crochetmaker #crochetaddict #crochetgirlgang #crochetastherapy #crochettoday #crochetlife #crochetpattern #pattern #crochetdesign #crochetdesigner #design #designer #yarn #makerlife #michiganmaker #michigan #craft #crafty https://www.instagram.com/p/B2o4wlAl_vb/?igshid=1qco91ymzplh

Something new comes my way. ⠀ ⠀ I have been working on this sweater, I want to make some adjustments, I think I want a 3/4 length sleeve and perhaps take out the stripe pattern and use a different fiber. ⠀ ⠀ I am in love with collars, and want to play with the stitches because I have been dying to use a crab stitch. ⠀ ⠀ I had tested using the crab stitch a while back on March 26th and I loved it but I need to lock it down first. ⠀ Are their certain stitches you feel intimidated by? ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #mittenmade #handmade #handcraft #spring #maker #makersgonnamake #yarnstagram #yarnstash #yarnofinstagram #crochet #crochetmaker #crochetaddict #crochetgirlgang #crochetastherapy #crochettoday #crochetlife #crochetpattern #pattern #crochetdesign #crochetdesigner #design #designer #yarn #makerlife #michiganmaker #michigan #craft #crafty https://www.instagram.com/p/B2mDcGBFuAj/?igshid=ygal6z4c05j5

Good Morning y’all. We are starting to prep for the fall & yesterday the boys painted wooden hanging pumpkins for our windows and I chopped down our corn stalks to dry for decorations. ♻️ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ This mornings yarn is some from a shopping trip to Joann’s yesterday morning. I think these slightly sparkly yarns may be perfect for some triangle scarves or fringe ponchos. ⠀ ⠀ They have a slight sparkle ❇️ ⠀ Or maybe more of a shimmer. ⠀ It’s a red heart yarn, now I usually don’t purchase red heart however this yarn is so soft and I love this peachy color and I think @redheart may have swooned me. ⠀ ⠀ Let’s talk about the deal I got on this yarn. Like most makers, purchasing materials is expensive and to be honest it can be costly if you do not have wholesale account to purchase large amounts of yarn. ⠀ ⠀ This yarn was on clearance for $4.97 I had a coupon for 25% off clearance yarn. Which brought the cost down to $3.73 ⠀ ⠀ I also had a coupon for $15 off $75 or more, plus like I mentioned 10% cash back on the @ibottaapp. ⠀ ⠀ So at the end of the day I was able to save. I also got some buttercream yarns, and sick yarns 🧶 to make some socks for the winter. 🙌🏼⠀ ⠀ ⠀ How do you find your best deals as a maker? ⠀ ⠀ #mittenmade #handmade #handcraft #spring #maker #makersgonnamake #yarnstagram #yarnstash #yarnofinstagram #crochet #crochetmaker #crochetaddict #crochetgirlgang #crochetastherapy #crochettoday #crochetlife #crochetpattern #pattern #crochetdesign #crochetdesigner #design #designer #yarn #makerlife #michiganmaker #michigan #michiganmom #fauxfurpoms #fauxfur⠀⠀ https://www.instagram.com/p/B2jic4thUdY/?igshid=q98dkgatgdj1
