Sweater to Bag

If you like to recycle, this idea to transform a wool sweater into a one-of-a-kind designer bagworth to try. You always need additional hand-bag, plus you always use this as a gift to your friends and relatives.

Another idea of mine is the next time I saw nice cheap sweater, I will buy 2 at once. One to wear as it is, the other one is to transform as a bag. Then I will have a matching bag with my outfit. Let me know how you think in the comment section.

Happy sewing!

Crocheted Halloween Cozy

I know that the Halloween was over, but this Halloween Cozies are a fun way to dress up party treat cups. After the party's over and the goodies are long gone, these cup cozies can be used to hold all manner of kids' treasures. Make the same cozy patterns in different colors and embellish them in a variety of ways to create other special themes or decorative looks for any time of year.

Button Rug

You'll love how cushiony our Bachelor's Button Rug feels to your feet, especially when you have to stand while working, like washing dishes at the kitchen sink. It's easy to change the shape and make the rug square or rectangular instead, and you can make it larger simply by adding more motifs to each row and more rows to the rug.

Dogwood Afgan

Crocheted flower creations always add a cheerful and charming touch to any decor and just naturally seem to brighten any room where they are displayed. This lovely Dogwood Afghan is sure to draw "oohs" and "aahs," whether it's showcased in your own home or given as a gift to someone special. You can also use the square pattern, worked in a fine or lightweight yarn, to create a lovely spring or summer scarf. By itself, the center dogwood motif would make a lovely pin or embellishment for hats, purses, scarves and other fashion accessories. Add a couple of crocheted leaves to further enhance the flower and a beautiful bead at the center to really add pizzazz.

Blue and Green Combination

I also found this pattern in Vogue. This is simple pattern but I like the color combination and the fit. Actually I have never make a sweater using more than 1 color, but looking at this one make me want to try it. Not now though as I still have a lot of yarn and on yarn diet. I will try to look for that color combination sometimes next year, when my stash is low and there is a clearance on my favorite online yarn shop.

Hearts Blanket

If you are looking for project to use up your scrap yarns, look no more. This project is guaranteed not only will use up all your scrap yarn, but also will use up all your free time. I suggest that you weave in as you go rather than wait until the end, because you will end up with gazzillion ends to weave in.

Basket of Pumpkins

Halloween is almost here. Have you decorated your house to celebrate the occasion? Sometimes, just a simple decoration is enough to get you into the festive mood. Make these Crocheted Pumpkins, put them in the basket and place them in the corner of your living room, it will guarantee a conversational piece.

If you don't want to display the pumpkins in a basket, they would look just as decoratively displayed in a creative arrangement of dried corn husks, Indian corn, colorful fall leaves, nuts, berries or whatever you like.
