Soaked ~ Patterns

There was so much rain yesterday, the schools closed.  It was pretty nasty weather considering we went from freezing, snow covered to pouring down rain.


I've had a request for patterns for the items I make.  Here are a few of them.

The pattern for the heart cup/mug coasters is online and free at Red Heart yarn:  Valentine Heart Coaster

The heart bookmarks are in this book:

Your local library may even have this book.

The rugs are simple too.  Here are the instructions on how I make them:  Crochet Scrap Rugs

The headbands/ear warmers are for sale on my Rooster's Crow Farm blog, but I have also had requests for the pattern.  The pattern is free online at Yarnspirations:  Bernat Twisted Step-Sister Headband.

Plowed Out ~ . . .from the handiwork journal

We have been plowed out, pipes thawed, and now freezing rain is rolling in.  I have definitely given myself "me" time during this after storm time.

....started a set of red hot pads and XL hot pad

....finished these bookmarks

....started a rug with scraps of cotton yarn and that cone of yarn I bought that is not all cotton.

....finished this set of cup coasters

....my new crochet hook arrived, so I'm about to start a new project.

My routine is back with a mountain of dishes to wash.  The weather is more than crazy.  We just plowed and now it's strange to see so much rain.  School is delayed.   The driveway is a sheet of ice right now.  How is your weather?
