Sunburst Granny Square Meets Color, Thanks To A Reader!
There is just something about a great color combination together with a wonderful crocheted granny square that makes my heart sing! I can’t say I’ve had the time or inclination to crochet much lately (of course I did crochet doll clothes, and need to do a spring outfit pronto…yikes!) because, well, one can’t do it all, and I’m putting most of my creative time into painting and art related endeavors. To see a reader, @hardknotlifecrochet, take my sunburst granny square (available for purchase on my etsy store here) and give it color was such a wonderful surprise, I just had to share it with you! When I designed this granny…

Crocheted Dots And Dashes Granny Square Neck Warmer
Winter has finally arrived here in Northern Israel, so let’s celebrate (since we need the rain) with a Crocheted Dots And Dashes neck warmer, composed of just four wagon wheel granny squares! The squares themselves only take about 15 minutes to crochet each (for the experienced crocheter) so I’m guessing one could crochet the entire neck warmer is around 2 hours. Make this stylish and cozy neck warmer in one sitting or crochet the squares as a take-along project, and either way you’ll be enjoying your new creation in no time. I love projects like this one that come together quickly, and in the time it would take to make…

Crocheted Striped Mohair Collar With Ribbon Tie
Sometimes a soft mohair collar to keep your neck warm would be just the perfect little accessory, so why not whip one up? Or for that matter, make a bunch in different sizes, as this would surely be adorable for a little girl as well, right? My crocheted striped mohair collar with a ribbon tie is so simple to make, and depending on the yarn you choose as well as the ribbon tie, could go with so many looks, not to mention perfect for a cool spring day. Ah yes, and what might be the difference between a cowl and a collar you ask? Keep on reading, and we shall…

Crocheted Wavy Ribbed Cowl Pattern
Our pink almond blossoms are on the verge of blooming, which is the first sign of spring here in Northern Israel, so this pink wavy ribbed cowl is right on time and a perfect Spring accessory! I just love cowls, button up ones that is, and even wear them indoors all winter long. So when it occurred to me to use this space dyed pink yarn to make a cowl of some kind, I just had to get to work so that I could still enjoy it this year! Given my tendency to leave projects without ends woven in, and no buttons, well this is truly a miracle, yippee, especially…

Crocheted Granny Square Cowl
I finally got the buttons sewn onto my simple granny square cowl, and it is now my favorite winter accessory. In fact I'm wearing it right now, and am looking forward to enjoying it as a spring accessory with a light coat as well. If this granny cowl looks a bit familiar, well, you are right, this is the cousin of my sunburst granny square scarf, which I love as well, but this year I've been especially loving tucking a crocheted cowl into all my layers of fleece, and a crocheted cowl simply made from just four squares was the perfect answer for something to switch out with the double…

On My Hook, A Cozy Crocheted Mohair Cowl
Right now I'm in the process of whipping up a cozy crocheted mohair cowl, and thought my work in progress might just inspire you to indulge in some quick winter crocheting! One of my go-to neck warmers this winter has been my crocheted ribbed cowl, which is so practical and can be worn in so many ways, so I thought I'd make a more delicate and colorful version using this mohair blend yarn I just happened to spot in a clothing store in town. Just couldn't resist the aqua, and thought I'd mix it with the other blue for something a bit unexpected. The wide stripes are because Ijust can't…
