Wonderful Warm Slippers to Crochet

Check out these warm, reversible slippers from Littlejohn Yarns.  They are quick to crochet and will keep you warm all winter long.  Alysha offers a video to help even the beginner create a proper pair of slippers.  She also offers a variety of patterns you are sure to enjoy.

Which side is your favorite?  I like the smoother side better, with the heavier texture on the inside for more warmth.  Make some for yourself and try them both ways.

Crochet is Groovy Again

It's time to pull out my pattern books from the seventies, gather some bright pinks, oranges, and greens, and create groovy handmade accessories for the new generation!  Always keep your patterns and books, because fashion runs in cycles and everything eventually comes around again.

This is just a long, skinny scarf in half-double crochet with crocheted flowers.  I think I will make another with daisy-loom flowers--I still have my looms from 50 years ago!

This scarf was made of Caron Simply Soft acrylic, so it feels good around the neck and is nice and flexible.
