Crochet A Tree Of Love

by

cro tree 1113

A friend (thanks, Melinda!!) sent me a link to this wonderful Christmas Tree.  Even better than the tree is the sweet story of how all the crocheted ornaments were gathered.  Please visit the site to view the tree and ornaments more closely.  You’ll be totally impressed with the variety and with the way that Cindy used them to their vest advantage with her decorative talents.  This tree, this project – they are inspirational.  I’m also angry that I didn’t think to do this myself first!  So jealous!  Visit the site and see for yourself.  Ooooh.  I’m jealous.

 

PS – Be sure to check out the super simple ornaments that are made ONLY of chained yarn and a bit or ribbon.  Some people are so smart!

  1. This was the first thing that showed up on my computer at Craft Gossip this morning. I was awe-struck. Not only is it beautiful but the warm crochet community brightened my day.

Crochet Baby Beanie – A Sweet Beginner-Friendly Hat Pattern for Baby Showers and Handmade Gifts

This Crochet Baby Beanie is one of those simple little patterns that makes a really lovely handmade gift. It uses soft Bernat Softee Baby yarn for the hat, a fluffy Pipsqueak edging, and an optional crochet flower on the side, giving it that cute baby-shower-ready finish.

What makes this one appealing is that the shape is worked in easy rounds, starting with a magic circle and increasing up to 48 stitches before moving into the textured post-stitch section. The fluffy edging softens the whole look, and the added flower gives it a sweet decorative touch without making the project feel too fussy.

I also like that it feels like a pattern you could easily customize. You could skip the flower for a simpler baby beanie, change the colors for a more modern look, or keep the pink-and-white version for a classic handmade baby gift. It has that practical “quick weekend project” feel, which is always handy when a baby shower sneaks up on you.

If you’re looking for an easy crochet baby hat pattern with a soft, cozy finish, this one is definitely worth a look. It’s cute, giftable, and the fluffy trim gives it a little extra charm.
