Doc McStuffins Part 4

Day 4 and 9 squares in I'm SOO excited with the way these squares keep turning out!
I have 6 more character squares to make and 9 more filler squares! Check back daily to see new squares and Eventually the finished product!
Today I made Stuffy the Dragon and the filler square to look like Doc's leggings

      

Patriotic FREEBIES!

This Graph will work on my Earwamer Pattern OR Mne Crafts hat pattern

And here's a couple Blanket/wall hanging graphs

Doc McStuffins Part 3

I didn't finish 2 character squares today because, frankly, my eyes HURT, from concentrating on them! LOL I did make one character and 2 filler squares though!
This is Gabby the Giraffe,  the purple and white horizontal striped square is meant to look like Doc's shirt, The white and red vertical striped square is meant too look like Hallie's apron!

                 

Doc McStuffins Part 2

Decided against making Stuffy today but I did, however, make Doc and Chilly!
Check 'em out! I figure if I average 2 new squares a day I'll finish this blanket in about 2 weeks!

            

Doc McStuffins

This is what's on my hook right now! Each individual square takes HOURS to create so it's slow going BUT it will be one fabulous blanket pattern when I get there!
Check back tomorrow to see if I meet my goal of finishing Stuffie and Chilly!

Ginormo-Bow Headband!

Every little Diva needs a HUGE bow! When I started thinking about how close my baby's 1st birthday was I decided she needed something BEAUTIFUL to wear and I wanted to make it myself! I scoured Ravelry and found the Samantha Tank from Sincerely Pam. That was the first finished piece in the set! Then my good friend Amanda from MNE Crafts - Crochet Patterns & More asked me to test the pattern for her Emy Booties so I decided to make them to match the tank. And then, of course, no outfit is complete with out a cute bow so I sat down and wrote the Ginormo-Bow Headband pattern.

POOF! Emmersyn's first birthday outfit was born!

Get the Ginormo-Bow pattern in my Ravelry Store. Use Code: EMY to get it for 25% off until midnight Friday!

Get the Emy Booties pattern in the MNE Crafts Ravelry Store. The same Code: Emy will get you 25% off that pattern until midnight on friday too!

Too Cool For Drool Bandana Bib

I've been in such a crochet slump lately and haven't really designed anything in awhile. I went shopping and bought a ridiculous amount of yarn and now the ideas a flowing like crazy!!

SPRE: Patterns & Design is SO happy in announce the release of our Newest pattern! You can find it in our Ravelry Store.

This is the 'Too Cool For Drool' bandana bib pattern, it's fabulous - I love it and more importantly my daughter LOVED it!

The Graph Pillow

I just LOVE this pillow! I do have to admit that using graphs on post stitches was totally the brain child of Amanda from MNEcrafts.com, her graph hat is ADDICTING! As a matter of fact I created a group on facebook where I create graph for hats and more recently have started offering pillow graphs! Check it out here! There are lots of graphs up for sale there! :) Mention that you found the group via Sprepatterns.com and all profits will go towards buying Amanda a SUPER AWESOME baby gift! :D

Materials:
I hook
Scissors
Yarn Needle
Worsted weight yarn (rhss 3 skeins of base color and 1 of each of the accent colors)
18x18” pillow or fiberfill stuffing

** This is just a tutorial, so I will not write out the whole pattern, I will write it out until the graph starts and then it’s pretty self-explanatory from there.**


**Graph is worked bottom up, and left to right.**

Round 1: 140 Fhdc, sl st to join to the beginning fhdc (all in the base color)
Round 2: CH2, fpdc in each stitch around. – (140 fpdc all in base color)
Round 3: CH2, fpdc 40 in the base color - then start your graph.

**when your pillow is finished, stitch the bottom shut, put your pillow or stuffing in and stitch the top shut**

**Some of you have already purchased this graph and now I'm offering it for free, shoot me an email via the contact me button with your name and the date on your invoice, as soon as I verify it I will offer you a NEW pillow graph for free!**
