Get Some Inspiration!

April 9, 2007 by jd wolfe

I ran across this site and want to share it with you. It’s not just crochet, but there are almost 1000 pictures to inspire you to create wonderful things from yarn, buttons, and fabrics that you have on hand. Here’s an example of a crochet project:

Here’s a link to the site:

Check out the site and see if you aren’t inspired. I love the notion of repurposing yarn, fabrics, buttons, jewelry, and anything else I have in my craft stash.

Free Easy Crochet Flower Blanket Pattern

Free-Crochet-Flower-Blanket-Pattern.jpg

There’s something so joyful about stitching flowers into your crochet—and this Flower Blanket Pattern from HiCrochet captures that feeling perfectly. It’s a vibrant, petal-filled project that feels like wrapping yourself in a blooming garden. Each square bursts with floral charm, and the modular design makes it great for beginners or anyone who loves building something beautiful one block at a time. Whether you go full rainbow or stick to a soft pastel palette, this blanket is an absolute delight to create. 

This is one of those projects that feels like sunshine in yarn form. It’s soothing to stitch, endlessly customizable, and turns into a piece you’ll be proud to show off (or gift to someone special). Whether you’re crafting for spring, adding a floral touch to your living room, or just looking for a happy, colorful make—this pattern is a perfect pick. Let me know how yours turns out—I’d love to see what colors you choose!
