Crochet Mukluk Slippers



These slouchy crocheted mukluk slippers are listed as easy. 
You wouldn't think so by looking at the photo, but the description
on the pattern says that there are very few yarn ends to weave in. 
That's an added plus!! 

This pattern uses super bulky yarn and a size K (6.5 mm hook), so it 
should work up fast. 

Make a few of these over the summer months to have as Christmas gifts
later!

Twinkle Twinkle Baby Bunting


This is sweet! I have included links to both a crochet version and a knit version. 

I first found this pattern at this link. 

It's a little confusing to find the pattern, however, just scroll down to the "+" sign in the box where it says "Pattern", click that. I have found that version to be a little blurry, so here's the link to the .PDF file to download. 

This pattern is for a Baby 18" doll. However I read that it will work for a real baby too. 

Also, you can get a pattern on the Crochetville forum at this link.

This pattern uses worsted-weight yarn and a size H crochet hook. Size of the afghan is 54"W x 52"L.

A graph and written instructions are both included for you to use whichever you prefer. I always prefer the graph and I draw a line with a pencil through the rows of blocks as I complete them so I can easily find my place in the pattern. You can erase the pencil line through the blocks after so you can re-use the graph at another time. Or make copies of the graph.
