Crochet Yourself a Ring

Want a quick little project that's super easy and whips up in a flash?  Check out this crocheted ring I made recently in under 30 minutes!  I haven't ever really been one for crocheted jewelry, although I do think that some of it is lovely and unique, but when I ran across this pattern link I was intrigued and decided to give it a try.

 
 There are three different ring patterns included in the PDF, however I only tried one because the other two were too large for my liking.  So here is my version of the ring in two different colors:

They are very cute and surprisingly comfortable!  So if you're looking for a quick project to break the routine, try one of these rings on for size!  You can get the downloadable PDF here.

Crochet a Pretty Flower Square Pillow

I have a beautiful crochet pattern to share with you today, but first how about a fun crochet fact?  Did you know that crochet is the last fiber art that cannot be duplicated by machine? Yep, it's true. True crochet stitches cannot be duplicated by a machine. That makes a handmade crocheted piece even more unique and truly one-of-a-kind.   


I think crochet is beautiful.  I am so amazed and proud at just how far this art form has come.  I am always on the lookout for unique and interesting displays of bright and beautiful crochet, and I was so excited when I ran across this one!

It's a granny square pattern, yet it looks hip and up-to-date, and the colors are just fabulous!  This is going on my crochet "to-do" list for sure! 

You can get the pattern for this beautiful pillow here.  While you're there be sure to take a look around this lovely blog for some beautiful creations and inspiration galore!!

I hope you're all having a terrific and crafty weekend!
