| These wristers are open and fun, much like the wings of a butterfly. These make a great spring or summer project especially when made with cooler fibers in bright, vibrant colors.
The combination of mesh and butterfly stitch make these a quick project for those who want instant gratification. |

This is a unique red and white outfit that you can give to a little girl for her Barbie doll (or other fashion doll) to wear in the summer that any girl will love! The outfit is made in two pieces, a top jacket and a bottom skirt. Feel free to use any two of your favorite colors to make this fun outfit.
Finished Size: 2†(5 cm) across top, 2 1/2†(6.5 cm) skirt |

| Flashy bangles are cool, but sometimes a more subtle piece of jewelry does the job. This delicate one-row bracelet works with casual and party clothes, and is a great accessory for the summer. |  |
| This little lime is quick to make and can be used in a variety of ways. You can use it as an applique or wear it as earrings. And of course, you can use another color to make other citrus fruits and make a mini fruit salad. Have fun getting creative with this pattern! |  |
| I really love quilting. Mixing and matching all my favorite fabrics together to make something beautiful is so rewarding. So, the thought occurred to me, why not use my favorite quilt patterns for crochet patterns? This week I made a bow tie quilt block pattern for you to enjoy. You could make this block into something special for a baby with all the beautiful baby yarn available. You don’t have to break the budget either; it’s a great way to use up scrap yarn. Make several blocks with different colored bowties to create an afghan. |  |
| The special child in your life can dress up their favorite fashion dolls with flair and flare with this circle vest. The circular construction and increases make it flare and ruffle in the back which gives it shape. It can be worn as shown or upside down to make it a cropped vest, and it can be worn open or closed with a fastener of your choice. |  |
| Who doesn’t love to crochet coasters?! All crochet enthusiasts and the people who love them have several coasters that were made as first-time patterns, holiday gifts, and leftover yarn creations. Here I present to you an easy, but fun pattern I created to use as a coaster. It is cute and it looks like a wheel, which gives it a different flavor from our usual coaster patterns. Enjoy! |  |
| Spring is here! I am so glad, aren’t you? I can’t wait to spend my evenings outside as the weather warms up and the daylight lengthens. You just can’t beat the wonderful scent of lilacs, daffodils and tulips in the air. It won’t be long and butterflies will be visiting my garden again too. I just can’t wait to see them peacefully resting on my flowers. In anticipation of their arrival I created this butterfly pattern for you this week. You could use it for a pin or an applique. It’s great for kid’s clothing, totes, and hats. You could also sew it on baby blankets and accessories! |  |

Meet Susie, the little squid! She is extremely popular with kids of all ages, yet simple and quick to throw together. This little baby squid will be a delight in your collection. But be careful, looking so cute this little fellow is a must have and you may be asked to make a beach bucket full of them.
Finished Size: Body is 2″ (5 cm) diameter and Tentacles are 2″ (5 cm) long

| Here comes Peter Cottontail hopping down the bunny trail! It’s time to start crocheting some projects for Easter. This quick and easy bunny is a great pattern for beginners. It is so fast to make and can be used in a variety of ways. It’s also a great scrap saver project for all those extra yarn bits that are lying around. This chubby bunny could be sewn on your child’s Easter outfit, made into a pin, used to embelish linens or baby gifts. If you like chocolate bunnies, then swap out the white yarn for a cocoa brown color. Have fun and happy crocheting this week! |  |
