New Halloween Patterns (With COUPON!) + iPhone Cases!

For Halloween, I made and posted a couple patterns for some Halloween themed hats that I made last year in the Etsy and Ravelry stores!

Check out the Bat and Frankenstein’s Monster Earflap Hat Patterns today!

And if you hurry to buy these before Halloween, and use the code “MONSTER” on any of the patterns for sale in my Etsy store, you’ll 15% off!!

Wait… you thought that was all? Ha! Check out the brand new crocheted iPhone cases in the Etsy store today!! Here’s some photo’s and the spiel on the listing:

Keep your iPhone safe and customized with a hand crocheted iPhone case! Handmade in a silky soft, yet strong and durable cotton / acrylic blend, these iPhone cases come in either iPhone 4 or 5 sizes. They’re made with openings for charging, headphones, and switching on and off vibrate so you never have to take it off! Speaking of which, the cases slip on easily and stay very secure while still keeping both the front and back cameras, mics, and flash open for the perfect photos!

Best part is, you choose the color! These cases come in a rainbow of colors, here’s a list:
White, Light Gray, Dark Gray, Black, Ocean Blue, Tadis Blue, Yellow, Lime Green, Hazelnut, Red, Pink, Azalea, Purple, Sand
Not in photos above, but still available in: Light Blue, Navy Blue, Green, Fern Green, and Brown 

Holy free pattern, Batman!!

This Friday yet another awesome superhero movie of this summer comes out, The Dark Knight Rises, and you know I’m here to make an equally awesome pattern to commemorate it!

So some of you may know the little bat pattern I posted last year, well I used that pattern with a few differences to make today’s free pattern of a simple Batman Logo, but that’s not all…

Iron man’s not the only one with some sweet gloves, and do to the popularity of my Iron Man Fingerless Mittens posted last month, I decided to make some Batman Ninja versions of them!

Bat Hair Accessory



Just in time for Halloween comes a new addition to the Etsy shop. You might have seen the little bats here, but bigger is always better. These bat hair accessories are perfect for a last minute Halloween Etsy shopping spree, and are actually a runoff to the free simple body/wing pattern I posted last month! If you haven’t seen it yet, here’s a link.


These bat hair accessories are available on a hair clip, or headband and come in two different colors.




You can get buy these here, or learn to make them here!

Happy Halloween!

All Treat, No trick

So Halloween is basically here, so I figure, it’s time for a new, Halloween themed pattern.

I was searching online for a pattern for an easy bat, but I really couldn’t find any, so I figured, why not make one? So I did, and I think it turned out really nicely. You might recognize this bat sewn onto the girls Halloween hat (left) available here.

These pins are available to buy here.

So here are some photos of what you can make!
