Flower Power

So it’s summer, and here’s an awesome new free pattern for you guys! You may have seen these flowers on some of the girl hats I make in my shop. Check the hat’s out HERE.

The great thing about these flowers is that they fit perfectly to a 7/8″ (20mm) button, so all you have to do is sew a button on something and you can change the flowers whenever you want!

Also, don’t forget, there is a giveaway going on right now! You could win $50 to my Etsy shop!! If you finish one of these flowers and send me a photo you can get extra entries in!! Also you get an entry for simply commenting on this post! To see a complete list of rules and how to enter, click HERE.

The Yays Have It


So yesterday, due to popular demand, I posted the pattern for the fox hat on Etsy!! Wo Wo Wo!!

For only $5 you can look foxy, stay warm and comfortable with this crocheted scarf-hat. Make it for your friends, daughters, granddaughters or for yourself! Learn techniques to make ears, a fox tail, and a classic ribbed brim. This hat will definitely be an eye catcher, and conversation starter anywhere you go. It is designed to function as both a scarf and a hat/beanie at the same time!

You can buy the pattern here, and the hat itself here!!

Check them out! And follow me on Facebook, Twitter or via Email to get the latest news on the new hats coming soon, including, a new animal themed scarf hat!!

Halloween Costume

So Halloween was Monday and I was a Dungeon Master (my girlfriends idea). It’s a variation of the Christmas Hat, but with stars, and button on ears. Oh, and a cool beard that connects to my glasses! All of which are coming soon in either pattern or buy able form, or both!

I’m selling these wizard hats here, but not the beards just yet (still needs to be perfected)!

So here’s a few more photos and a pattern for the little stars on the hat, because, why not?

Christmas in July

Now, I know its not July, but I was in the Christmas spirit and I’ve been meaning to make a good Santa hat pattern for my booth in October.

Oh yah, if you happen to be in the Thousand Oaks area on October 16th I’m having a booth at the 20th Annual Thousand Oaks Street Fair on Moorpark road! For more information and directions click here.

Anyhow, back to business. I made them in red and green, and I think I’m gonna put elf ears on them soon too! So anyhow, here’s some photos of my cousin Sara wearing the Santa hats.

I don’t have the pattern written down just yet, you’re just gonna have to wait for Christmas I guess!
