Hi y'all! So today I have another one of my original designs to share with you. It's my own twist on the VERY popular Messy Bun Beanie! You've probably seen MANY other patterns like  this one ,  this one , and  this one.  But I decided to go REALLY simple, and make one fully out of double and single crochet stitches. There is a border of crab stitches, AKA reverse single crochet, at the very end, but I promise you it's easy-peasy! So, let's get on with the pattern! Oh, and, here's a picture of mine. (Ya know, in case ya wanna see what it looks like before you go to the trouble of making it.) P.S. the hat is made from the bottom up. :) (Oh yeah! It's to fit ages 12 and up-ish.) What you will need: -Worsted weight yarn in your color choice! I used Red Heart Super Saver in Aran. I LOVE this color! *Heart eyes emoji x3* -H/5.00mm crochet hook -Yarn needle for weaving in ends. -Scissors are probably a good idea too... Stitch Abbreviations: sc:...

Today I thought I'd share with y'all a few of my favorite crocheted animal hats. They are all from RepeatCrafterMe.com . Just click on the names of the patterns to access the pattern from RepeatCrafterMe. :) All of the hats pictured I made and photograped for this blog and they are all made in the smallest size listed on the website of Sarah Zimmerman. Which is RepeatCrafterMe.com. Above each picture I have listed the materials I used, such as yarn brands and buttons. Enjoy and let me know below if you would like another post like this one sometime. :) Here is my personal favorite, the  Crochet Owl Hat Pattern . I love the color purple and love using it with whatever I happened to be making. So I created this purple version of RCM's pattern using some Bernat Super Value yarn for the lighter purple and some Loops and Threads Impeccable by Michaels Craft Stores in the darker purple color and some white. For the little bit of black I used Red Heart Super Saver and for...

After great reviews and many requests, here it is!  After I posted this photo: in one of the crochet groups I'm in on Facebook asking if I should write up the pattern, I got a TON of comments saying I should defintly do it, so I did! Although, it is not all my pattern, just the main part of the hat. The earflaps and the ears are part of the pattern posted by Sarah at RepeatCrafterMe. (Links to her website can be found below.) I made up the main part of this hat because I could never get the bobble stitches to "puff" enough. And lately, I have been making a lot of puff stitch slouchy hats, so I decided to make this lamb hat using the puff stitch. The puff stitch pattern I followed was the one from Ashley at Sewrella. (Her link can also be found below.)  They are my 2 favorite crochet bloggers, btw. ;) I hope you enjoy and it is easy for you to work up! If you have any questions, feel free to comment below, and I'll answer asap. Happy crocheting! ...
