Incredible Face Scrubby – Free Crochet Pattern

Update your skincare routine with the all new Incredible Face Scrubby pattern. I know that I needed to do better with having to wear a mask regularly while out in public and having to use hand sanitizers that dry out my skin.

Jovial Washcloth

I’m always a sucker for a good washcloth. I designed the Jovial Washcloth to have a subtle texture that will help exfoliate while bathing.

The Jovial Washcloth will make a great addition to a gift basket with locally made cold-processed soaps too.

Newborn Preemie Blanket

The Newborn Preemie Blanket is my first blanket pattern release. In my head blankets are always such a huge undertaking. I wanted to start with something small.

You could probably complete this blanket in just a few days. The Newborn Preemie Blanket is made up of easy row repeats too! Using only 600 yards, this is probably one of my smallest projects too.

Sunflower Cottage Crochet Preemie Crochet Challenge

For the month of August 2021 Sunflower Cottage Crochet is hosting their Preemie Crochet Challenge.

For each pattern that you download for free for the event you are pledging to donate at least one of each of those finished items to a local organization for preemie babies. It could be your local hospital’s NICU department, local family in need, or an organization who specializes in premature babies.

Many families have been touched with the complications of premature birth. Both the mother and baby can have lasting effects of prematurity.

My Preemie Story

My younger brother was born 8 weeks premature. I was still too young to remember but my mother has told me a few times that she wasn’t leaving the hospital to come home until her baby was coming home with her.

Luckily we are part of really supportive families and my parents had help when my mom was tending to my brother.

If you saw my brother today you wouldn’t even know that he was a preemie baby. He’s now a grown man who is a big softy for his older sister (me), he can be an jerk 95% of the time but he’s my lovable brother.

Free Crochet Trivet Pattern – Hot Stuff Trivet

Do you need a crocheted trivet to help protect your countertops? The Hot Stuff Trivet is exactly what you need!

This easy to follow crochet pattern can be made in just a few hours. A perfect addition to all your other kitchen items and makes an amazing gift.

***Post contains affiliate links- which means if you make a purchase from the links below, I will get a small percentage of the sales at no additional cost to you ***

Up until I made the Hot Stuff Trivet did you know that I used one of the two pot holders we have to put my hot items onto to protect my counters? It is fine and dandy when I only have one pot or dish, but when I have multiple items coming out of the oven at the same time (like on holidays) things can get a little dicey.

I don’t recommend using the Hot Stuff Trivet as pot holder though. I don’t think that it is thick enough to protect your hands from the dishes right from the oven.

The Yarn

Remember back in July 2020 when I released the Frosting Collection? I had purchased the cone of Lily’s Sugar ‘n’ Cream to make sure I had enough yarn to make all the dishcloths. I’m still working through the cone! Why go out and buy more cotton yarn when I have plenty left over.

I don’t have a whole lot more left to go before I’ve used it all. I saved myself a lot of money by buying it the way I did. If you plan on making a lot of items using cotton, I recommend buying a cone of it.

Frozen Treat Cozy

We’ve all been there, we’re eating our premium ice cream right out of the pint container and our hands are freezing. Well, look no further than the Frozen Treat Cozy to help you out!

The best part about the Frozen Treat Cozy is that it fits many of the reusable and single use cup you get at local coffee shops too. You’ll be able to see how versatile the cozy can be below.
