The Shtick I Do

Today I'm reposting a popular bookmark pattern I made last summer. It's perfect for your warm weather crochet itch! And with the join as you go method you don't have to worry about sewing anything together! ============================== ============================== This project is a cute Flower Motif bookmark. The motifs are joined as you go so there's no need to go back and sew them together, although you could certainly do that if you're so inclined. The bookmark was made with a 7" to 8" long book in mind. It also lies flat and has an optional tail and tassel for some added whimsy. Gather your supplies and let's get started! Materials : #10 crochet thread in your choice of color size  4/2.00 MM crochet hook (it's small) scissors needle for weaving in the ends Stitches used : (American terms -  converter ) Magic Circle  starting technique (optional) Slip Stitch (sl st) Chain (ch) Single Crochet (sc) Double Crochet ...

I think I've mentioned before that several ladies in my circle of friends are pregnant - well, when one delivers another one announces that she's expecting! LoL  I love that all these lovely women are having children and will love them to the ends of the Earth and back <3 One expectant mother asked me to make her a pair of booties for her soon-to-be-here baby girl; the pattern is available for a fee on Etsy. When ordering look for the pattern name: Crochet Baby Booties Pattern #3 by PatternMa . The cost is $5.50 USD. However, when you get the pattern PDF the name on it is "Snuggle Baby Booties". Let me begin by saying that this is NOT a paid advertisement for this pattern or the shop owner. This is my experience with the pattern and my opinion only. Booties I made using "Crochet Baby Booties Pattern #3" available on Etsy.com Rating: 4 out of 5 hooks (Let's use hooks as a rating guide and not stars, shall we? =D ) I really like the pat...
