HEADBAND MASK HOLDER

As 2020 quickly comes to a close and a vaccine rollout beginning, I hope we can meet the new year with grace and the same fortitude we have shown each other all year.

If you follow me or have seen my Pinterest and Instagram additions of this Headband, maybe its already on your crochet hook. I hope so, as my essential family member can attest, these work! I even wear now to the grocery store which seems to be the only place I go anymore, keeps my ears warm too!

This pattern and other versions can be found on the FREE PATTERN page, download as many times as you like and feel free to share the pattern AND THE Headband too. The materials are probably already in your sewing “crochet” basket. Mix up the colors too, the pattern is easy and quick to do.

Keep that crochet hook busy, happiness and health to all of you!

Color Wheels

Are all they are cracked up to be!

Any artist who works with color probably understands what color wheels are, their importance and use. Color wheels are used in just about every industry like paint, fashion as well as crafts. Not being trained in the use of color wheels, I am color challenged every time! SO, I compensate in other ways with what I have.

I put my creative hat on to choose thread colors for the flowers that would best complement the crochet chain of brown and green.

Diving into my bins of thread balls, I set a bunch of colors on top of a white surface in a circle, laid the crocheted chain across them and what-do-you-know I created my own color wheel! Funny thing the right colors just popped out!

Check out MARIGOLD in Free Pattern Page to see what I chose for the flower colors.

Free Pattern: Broomstick Lace

Broomstick lace is a fun way to make something the diameter of a broomstick handle plus your crochet hook. This craft technique has been around for a very long time dating back to the 1800’s. It is simpler than it looks and has made a comeback as seen by the amount of tutorials and patterns in the market place today.

The “handle” diameter is what will define the size of the opening and the lace-effect you desire…….from a simple 1/2 inch to 3 inch and more dowel, pencils, pens, broom handles and more can be used, basically anything you can wrap your yarn around.

See the attached tutorial here Broomstick Lace Scarf Tutorial and the free pattern for Pamelas Patterns Broomstick Jewels II. See more free patterns on my ♥freepatterns♥ page and get that yarn going in circles.
