Slouchy Picot Hat

Here is a new hat  - a custom design made by request for a fellow Etsian. Pattern includes sizes newborn to adult. Features openwork lacy pattern, slouchy-style fit and picot edging on the brim.

Holland enjoyed modeling her new hat...she has way too many hats, as you may imagine. :)

New Knit-Look Designs

Here are a couple new knit-look designs I've been working on...

Knit-Look Crocheted Mary Janes - Pattern includes sizes 0-12 mos
Toddler and Ladies sizes coming soon...

Knit-Look Pullover 
 - Pattern will include sizes newborn to 3 years, once I finish editing it.

Argyle Style

With our new baby due in about 9 weeks, I've been designing some newborn outfits for our (we're guessing!) son.
The patterns for both the hat and vest are currently available in my Etsy shop. The hat pattern includes sizes newborn to adult - the vest pattern includes sizes newborn to 12 yrs.

Mens 3-Stripe Tennis Shoes

My husband has been asking me recently to make him a pair of slippers. I'm pretty picky when it comes to "crochet for men"...it has to be very masculine for me to approve of it. :) And generally crochet is not masculine. But I am very pleased with the look of these new slippers. I think they look super cool on hubby's feet and he loves them! :) Pattern is now available on Ravelry or in my Etsy shop.

Twirly Scarf

My neighbor-girl back home in Wisconsin, who I have known since she was 5 months old, has just graduated from high school! She won several scholarships and awards and is heading off to college in the fall. As part of her graduation gift, I decided to design this scarf for her. She has lovely red hair and I think this color will suit her nicely. :)
Thanks to my husband's coworker for modeling this new design for me! I might have modeled it myself, but being 7 months pregnant, I didn't think that'd be a good look! :)

All Positive

Beautiful Baby Shoes seems to be selling very well on the DRG Wholesale website. It has been ranking among the top 3 sellers and is currently at #1. I have my own author's page now on Amazon.com. And 4 more Holland Designs patterns will soon be added to the e-patternscentral website!

Toopy

I don't normally spend much time making amigurumi, but over the past 2 days I have been busy creating my version of Toopy from "Toopy & Binoo." (No, I haven't made Binoo yet.) He measures approx. 12" tall standing. The pattern is now available on Ravelry or in my Crochetbury pattern shop on Etsy.
