Latest Alchemy....

Here is my latest Etsy Alchemy request...my customer wanted it for her 9 month old little girl. Can't wait for the photo of her baby wearing it! :)

Lastest Etsy Alchemy Request...

Here's my latest Etsy Alchemy Request. She wanted me to recreate the vintage circlets seen in the first photo but in a smaller size. Took me a while to figure out the pattern just from looking at the photo ( it's a little lacking in detail ) plus how to scale it down in size, but I managed and I'm rather proud. I'm planning on using the same pattern for a belt, a scarf or...I don't know. Any ideas??

Vintage Crocheting...

If you like vintage crochet and/or crocheting here are a handful of patterns for you to enjoy. And as always, the more I find the more I post.

~Note: Some patterns may be in PDF so you will have to download Adobe Reader to open them~

Shell Bag ( 1890-1930)

Maple Leaf Luncheon Set (1946)

Cloche for Crochet ( 1940s)

Open Mesh Slippers

Fair Lady Gloves ( 1941)

Lacy Dress (1943)

Crochet Coronet...

Messing around with some scrap yarn I had lying about and came out with this design. Not thinking much of it and would like a lot of criticism from people. What do you think? What could improve?

Super Mario Bros. crochet Goomba bag...

Just something I found while surfing the net. I grabbed the photo so I can duplicate it without having to look at a pattern. It is actually very simple to make...:)

Crochet table(s)...

The Continuation...

Crochet Visor Hats...

So I've found another client. She is a wonderful woman from California, with 6 kids, nieces and nephews. She made an Alchemy request for 15 different children's hats: 9 knitted baby bonnets, and 6 crocheted visor hats with detachable flowers of different colors. ( She also asked for a crocheted clothing line of which I will post here soon. It's really neat.) It's been a bit tough trying to find the colors close to what she wants, but so far it's been a good experience...I'll be posting pictures up as I make them so get ready for more posts! :)

I flipped out when I saw these on the Lion Brand website. These are most definitely going to be my next two projects. I'd like to design a Halloween costume from these patterns. Here you go. Enjoy...
