Daisy Necklace

I made this necklace just last night and love it! It's fast, easy and trendy. Im also planning to make a few more with the same design idea, so I'll post them as soon as I do! :)
You can always of course add your own touches by beading the yarn before you crochet it, embroidery on the flowers might be cute, or using 2 different colors - be creative!
Hope you like this one!
Pattern is below.

Pokeball Beanie Hat

  So this is how the pokeball hat came out! I made the applique with my pattern and made a simple beanie hat pattern too for my son and he loved it!I already have the pattern for the pokeball applique on here so I'll  put up the beanie pattern here for now.You can either sew on the pokeball or you can be a little quick (and lazy) like me and hot glue it on! ;)
MaterialsWW yarn in color of your choice (around 3.5 ozs - a bit less)Hook size H/8
Pattern1) Chain 3    Join with slip stitch to form a ring2) Double-crochet 10 times in ring, slip to join3) Now double crochet two times in each stitch (you'll have 20 stitches)4)  *Double crochet in the first stitch, then do two double crochet in the next*. Repeat from * to * all around. Slip stitch with first stitch to join. (you'll now have 30 stitches)5) *now, double crochet in the first TWO stitches once, then double crochet in the next stitch twice.* Repeat from * to * all around (you'll have 40 stitches)6) *double crochet in next THREE stitches once, then double-crochet in next stitch twice* Repeat from * to * all around.(now you'll have 50 stitches)7) *double crochet in next FOUR stitches once each, then in next stitch twice* repeat from * to * all around (then you'll have 60 stitches). If this hat is for a child, stop here adding increases here, and continue to the next step. If it's for someone a bit older, add a few more rounds of increses (the stitch where you double crochet twice) and add one stitch between it  each time ( for example, in the next round, you would double-crochet in the next four stitches once, then double crochet in the next twice)8) Now, double crochet once in each stitch around. Keep doing rounds of double-crochet once in each stitch until you have the desired length of your hat. Then fasten off and add the applique if you like :)So that's the completed hat pattern Hope you like it and use it well!I'll be posting my second mug-cozy soon :)Debbie

POkeball Applique

I was trying to crochet my son a hat with a decent looking pokeball on it using a graph pattern I drew but it just wasnt happening!
So instead I made this applique by crocheting in rounds and thought it came out pretty good!!
You can make it bigger or smaller by adding rounds or using different sized needles and you can sew it onto anything.
E-mail me your creation if you like and I'll post it with your link ;)

WW Yarn in red, white, and black

Pattern
Using white, Chain 3
Slip stitch to first chain to join

Single crochet 9 times in ring

Switch to black, single crochet in each stitch 2 times all around (18 stitches)
Slip stitch to join

SIngle crochet in first single crochet with black, then switch to white
Single crochet with white 2 times in each of next 7 stitches

switch to black, single crochet once in next stitch, then switch to red
Now single crochet 2 times in each next 7 sts with red
Slip stitch to join.

Mug Cozy

I've been wanting to try making a mug cozy for a while and finally have! It also doubles as a coaster (great for company!) since I made it go under the cup as well.
It's not perfect for the mug I tried it on, I'd have to make it a bit smaller and adjusting the pattern is easy!
It requires fastening off a bit, but Im thinking of making one without fastening off as well this week!
I used two colors but you can do whatever combinations you want with it.
Like the other one you can add your own touches too - ruffles, embroidery, beading, anything! :)
I'd love to see everyones different takes on this! If you'd like, send it to me and I'll post it here with a link to your page if you want.
debbiejeansmade@hotmail.com
Here's the pattern:


Materials:
Crochet hook h/8 (but really you can use any size you want to get your desired look and for your kind of yarn)
WW yarn in colors of your choice

Pattern:
1) Chain 20, slip stitch to first chain to join

2) Single crochet in each stitch around, slip stitch to join

3) Chain 1, 2 single crochet in each stitch around (now you'll have 20 stitches) slip stitch to join.

Now depending on how big your mug is, you can stop here and skip to step 5 or make it bigger with step 5 - the base you're making now should be just a little bit smaller than the mug's base.

4) To make base bigger, *single crochet in first stitch, then do 2 single crochet in the next stitch.* Repeat from * to * all around. Slip stitch to join.
If you need it bigger still, continue to add one stitch between increases (for example, in the next row you would single crochet once in the next 2 stitches, then do the increase - 2 single crochet - in one stitch and continue around)

5) Now, single crochet in the back loops only of all the stitches around. Slip stitch to join each round.
Continue this for 3 rounds, or until you reach the handle on your mug of choice.

6) In the next row, single crochet in the back loops until you reach the middle stitch (in mine, stitch number 20) Fasten off. Skip 4 stitches and cast the thread back on.

7) single crochet in rest of stitches around, slip stitch to join.
From here, continue to fasten off at those 4 stitches in each round until you reach the top of your mugs handle (for me, that was 10 rounds)

8) When you have finished your rounds, fasten off and fasten the thread onto the top of your handle hole. Chain 4, attach to other end with slip stitch. Single crochet in each chain, then fasten off.

9) Now, single crochet in each stitch inside the handle hole.

10) If you want to add ruffles to the top, double crochet 4 times in each top stitch around (or the bottom would be cite too!)

Thats it! Now you can add your own touches to it :)
Hope you liked this one!!
I'll be posting my second version (no fastening off ) soon this week and am also working on a pokemon hat for my son that I'll be posting (my first homemade graph pattern! yipes! wish me luck! lol)
