There’s a new Crochet Pattern in the Crochet Spot Store! This cabled bag has an interesting shape and texture. It is spacious enough to be an everyday purse or carry a small craft project. A simple cable pattern, with bobbles placed down the middle, crisscrosses its way down the front of the body. The body of the bag is crocheted all in one piece, then the straps are crocheted separately and sewn on. The pattern starts with the front of the bag, working from the top down. Then the back of the back is crocheted working from the bottom up.

Hi! My name is Amy Lynn Yarbrough. I’m so thrilled to be a part of Crochet Spot’s Professional team since it is something right up my alley. Creativity runs in my family, and growing up each of my siblings, as well as myself, were encouraged to follow our interests and accept them as God-given talents.

In my family you’ll find interests in just about anything: painting, drawing, carpentry, jewelry-making, leather-working, photography, sculpting, 3D artistry, etc. It can get quite involved when you’re trying to remember who does what. And since I was homeschooled, the scenario for learning never ceased. Learning was an adventure instead of just something you had to do. Life should be about learning and enjoying it.

We’re well into April and I am here to tell you that spring is coming! I know that many of my friends in the northern United States have been battling a long and difficult winter. For me, there’s no lack of crochet inspiration up there. I’ve traditionally crocheted with larger yarns, typically worsted weight or higher, and scarves, hats, and cowls are always at the top of my project list. However, when it comes to springtime, and living in this hot and humid Florida climate, I need to turn my sights to lighter weight yarns and versatile, transitional garments. Enter the crocheted shawl.

There’s a new pattern in the Crochet Spot Store! This market bag is great for carrying groceries, but can also be used as a beach bag or sports bag. This bag is crocheted seamlessly in the round from the bottom up. The mesh pattern creates a stretchy fabric that allow for many items to easily fit inside. The strap can be crocheted as long or as short as desired to create a short handle or a long shoulder strap, whichever you prefer! You can line the bag if you desire a less stretchy bag.

I got the idea for this tutorial because I decided to participate in a “Monster Swap” with my local stitching group. I used a really cute pattern that called for “safety eyes.” To be honest, I’ve never used safety eyes, I didn’t know where to buy them, and frankly, I didn’t have time to buy them either.

There’s a new pattern in the Crochet Spot Store! If you love granny squares and ripple blankets, you’ll love this combination granny ripple blanket!

The pattern includes instructions for adjusting the blanket so it can be made as big or as small as desired.
