Here's a quick little problem solver for you: the "counter caddy".<br />
I have a small stitch/row counter and it is very narrow, and doesn't stand up to well by itself. I like it to stand up, so as I'm working I can glance at the number. I try to prop it up, but when a row is inevitably done and I tap the counter- it topples over. Every time. It's such a pain. As I continue to work on my new <a href="https://www.hautekippy.com/2016/07/the-patchwork-spangled-banner-afghan.html">afghan</a> design (coming soon!) I contemplated what I could do to make this counter stand still and stay put.<br />
<br />
I thought about cutting and hot gluing a cardboard stand, similar in shape to what I eventually crocheted. But I realized cardboard wouldn't last long, and it's ugly. The design is such that you can take the counter out and reset it as needed and then stick it back in its holder.<br />
<br />
This quick and easy pattern uses Bernat Maker yarn which I LOVE. I must say, I always want to use a smaller hook than recommended for Bernat Maker. I feel like, if you crochet tightly, this yarn can really become something stiff and keep its shape. I love playing with it, and have tried <a href="https://www.hautekippy.com/2018/04/market-wristlet.html">my Market Wristlet</a> in Bernat Maker as well. It comes out slightly bigger and has such a lux, sleek look to it!<br />
<br />
My stitch counter is a clicker type, it's a Clover model in red with a clicker at the top and two side wheels to adjust the count as needed. It measures 1.5" across, 2.75" tall and 0.5" wide. The counter caddy fits this model perfectly and was custom crocheted to fit it. The caddy is worked in two pieces the top and the base.<br />

TOP<br />
Round 1: Chain 16 and sc in second st from hook, sc across 14, join to first sc made with a sl st and ch 1. (15 sts)<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
**Be sure to pause here and join the top of the first row as well. I prefer this method to joining the chain first, it eliminates the problem of twisted chain and trouble finding the last ch to crochet into. Additionally, when working in the round, I pull the join very tight, ch 1, and then make the first st of the next round in the same st as join.</blockquote>
<br />
Round 2: sc into each st around, join with a sl st, ch 1. (15 sts)<br />
<br />
Rounds 3-4: repeat round 2<br />
<br />
Round 5: working in front loop only make 2 sc into each st around, join, ch 1. (30 sts)<br />

FINISHING:<br />
With right side facing, align stitches of the base with the stitches in the last row of the top. Working through both layers, sl st the base to the top, evenly around. Join to first sl st made and fasten off!<br />

I took a super long Christmas break and during that time, made this really cute slouch hat for you! It's so cute. Made with 5-bulky weight yarn, it works up really quickly. I love the knit look stitches, and the post work too. It's just so fun to make as you get going with the pattern repeats. I especially love the fur pom pom.<br />
<br />
I've seen them used and made by one of my favorite crochet designers, and I’m sure the interwebs has plenty of tutorials out there. They are super easy to make though- don’t fret. I didn't photograph the procedure, but here's a quick run through...<br />
<br />
<h4>How to make a fur pom pom:</h4><blockquote class="tr_bq"><i>Take some poly fill stuffing, a utility knife, a large jar lid or circular object about 5" in diameter, crochet thread or other thick thread, and a tapestry needle. Trace the circle on the back of the fur fabric, and carefully cut the fur- please don't cut yourself! Then thread your needle with a healthy length of thread and tie a good knot on the end. Sew in and out around the edge of the fur circle with your stitches about 1/2" apart until you get back to the beginning. </i> </blockquote><blockquote class="tr_bq"><i>Pull the circle together by cinching the thread and when the opening gets smaller, stuff in enough poly fill to suit. Pull tightly closed, and tie off but don't cut threads yet. Center the pom pom on top of your hat, cinched side down, and stitch carefully, tightly and thoroughly onto the hat.</i></blockquote><br />

<br />
You can also buy one extra skein of matching or contrasting yarn and make a yarn pom pom as well. I'm sure it would also look super cute. If you make one, please share a picture with me on my <a href="http://facebook.com/hautekippy">facebook page</a>, or in our <a href="http://facebook.com/groups/134536873921159">facebook group</a>!<br />

<br />
</h2><h4>Let's Go!</h4><br />
Hook: L/8mm<br />
<br />
Yarn: 5/Bulky weight- I Love This Chunky! in Heathered Gray, 1 skein- 109 yds<br />
<br />
Gauge: 2” is apx. 5 sts in hdc<br />
<br />
Difficulty: Easy<br />
<br />
Materials: tapestry needle, pom pom (yarn or fur)<br />
<br />
Finished Size: Adult, apx. 20” before stretching to fit most<br />
<br />
<br />
<h3>Special Stitches: </h3><br />
Hdc or dc in 3rd loop- stitching in the third loop: The third loop is located on the wrong side of the hdc and dc stitches, and is directly below the top “v” running horizontally and slightly diagonally across the back (wrong side) of the stitches. Make a hdc or dc as normal in this 3rd loop where indicated. *Most of the time it is only the 3rd loop of a hdc that is worked in, however, a dc also has a third loop although smaller than the 3rd loop of a hdc, it is there and can be worked in just the same.<br />
<br />
Fpdc- front post double crochet: make a double crochet around the front (right side) of the post of the dc stitch indicated, as opposed to stitching in the top “v”.<br />
<br />
Fpdc2tog- front post double crochet two together, a decreasing stitch: this is not a common stitch. You are going to be decreasing while making a fpdc, and a dc together. Just like a dc2tog, except the first st is a fpdc instead of a regular dc. Start in the same manner as making a fpdc up to the last yo, instead of pulling through and finishing the st, yo and insert hook into the top of the next st, (as making a normal dc decrease) yo, draw through 2 loops, yo and draw through all loops, fpdc2tog made.<br />
<br />
<br />
<h3>Notes: </h3>Joins are made as follows: join rounds with a sl st to the first st made, pull join tightly, and ch 1, then make first st of next round in the same st as the join.<br />
<br />

<br />
Rounds 11-13: repeat rounds 7-9<br />
<br />
Round 14: fpdc2tog over the first two sts, continue fpdc2tog around, fpdc in the last st, join, fasten off leaving a long tail for sewing hat closed. (20 sts)<br />
<br />
<br />

Oh Scrunchies. They're back, along with all things 90's. If you're around my age- as in graduated high school at the millennium, as opposed to being born then, you know all about the 90's. I remember what I wore, what was cool, and I also remember a distinct 60's/70's trend resurgence around the time I was in middle school. I will never forget my mother, aghast, with me at a store, wishing she had held on to her old bell bottoms because she couldn't believe they were back in style. Everything old becomes new again.<br />
<br />
I don't remember any specific trend recurrences during the 00's. I was a college student trying to reinvent myself and as a result, I routinely dressed like a weirdo. I can laugh about it now, but back then I thought I was "all that and a bag of chips" as they used to say. (As if!)<br />

Now that I'm secure in my God-given identity I can look back fondly on the 90's and remember all the wacky things we wore without cringing too much. When I conjure up images of 90's fashion in my mind I think of block heels, chokers, baby-doll dresses, construction boots, spaghetti straps with a t-shirt underneath, high waisted jeans, ringer tees, everything tied around the waist and shirts with multi-colored striped bands across the chest. If you're in your teens or twenties or know someone that age, what is being worn now is simply astounding. Flipping through a fashion magazine is like entering a time warp. It's like a "Friends" explosion, which was scrunchie-central if you didn't know!<br />
<br />
I'll never forget Carrie Bradshaw berating her author boyfriend over the use of a scrunchie in his latest work of fiction. I can still recall her shrill voice, "A sca-rrrunchie!?"<br />

<br />
Of course by 2003 when that episode of SATC aired, scrunchies were fashion non grata. I wouldn't have been caught dead in one then. (That was way harsh, Tai.) But some way, some how, miracle of miracles the illusive scrunchie has made its way back into favor.<br />
<br />
Let's make one right now! Do you have twenty minutes and an elastic hair tie? I won't ask if you have any yarn. I KNOW you have yarn. Don't play with me about, "do you have any yarn laying around?" !<br />

Dude! Let's like, totally do this!</h3>

Twenty Minute Scrunchie</h4>
<div>
Free Crochet Pattern!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This crochet pattern is so simple and so easy you don't even have to count. There's not even really a pattern, so I won't make it one. This is the simplest thing to make, like ever! Seriously, if you have any proficiency at crochet whatsoever, this will only take about 20 minutes. Think of how many scrunchies you could make!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
No counting,</div>
<div>
No guage,</div>
<div>
No pattern. </div>
<div>
Just Do It!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<i>Step One:</i></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Using H/8/5mm hook, join worsted weight yarn to an elastic hair tie. The thick ones work best!</div>
<div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br /></div>
<div>
<i>Step Two:</i></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Hdc around the hair tie until it's all the way covered up- at least 30 sts. Join to first hdc made with a sl st, ch 2.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<i>Step Three:</i></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Make four dc in each st around, join to first dc made and fasten off. Weave in ends securely and Boom!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>

I'm back! I took the ENTIRE summer off to rest, hang with the fam and rejuvenate! I've learned something really important over this time away from the blog. Something I leaned from C.S. Lewis- I am free to create for the pure joy of creating. Not for followers, or meeting my self imposed publication deadlines, but for HIM. I seek the fame of the One who called me to create, not the fame of the internet or the world.<br />
<br />
This means that from now on you'll see me not trying to keep up with the big blogs, like Whistle and Ivy, Repeat Crafter Me and Moogly- which I was previously killing myself to do (and failed miserably at). Now you'll see me be my true self. And I'm going to publish for the fun of it, whenever I get a new idea. This year, I'm throwing my production and publication schedule out the window. I'm not going to plan ahead and plan for the seasons. I'm not going to plan at all. I'm just going to crochet whatever I want, whenever I can, and publish the new patterns when they are done. That's it.<br />
<br />
My hope is that I can give you something new at least once a month. But if my kids need me, or life gets in the way, I'm not going to get bent out of shape about it. This blog was started for fun- not for stress! What joy can I get out of creating when I'm forcing myself to create on a deadline! It's madness.<br />
<br />
Maybe I had to go through this, to find out the hard way and burn myself completely out to learn the lesson I needed to learn. That He wanted me to learn. So let's go, let's do this! I'm ready- are you?<br />
<br />
Here's the first crochet pattern of our new season together! Will you join me?<br />
<br />

Recently on Facebook I've seen pictures of these little fish in a jar. They are so cute! Some photos became viral, and I was tagged in one and asked to make the project on commission. I jumped at the chance to try something new. Usually when clients, friends or relatives want something made, I find the designer and purchase the pattern to fill the order. This time I was able to find the designer, but couldn't access her website. So to fill my orders I had to make up my own version.<br />
<br />
As we all know the creative world is full of crisscrossing ideas, remakes and reboots. Before publishing this pattern, I checked Pinterest and I found that crocheted fish and knit aquariums have been done and done again. This is not a new idea that went viral on Facebook but one version of a very cute the idea that has been around for a long time, and since become popular.<br />
<br />
It'a amazing when things go viral, I'm happy for the designer and all the traffic the photos generated for their website. Maybe someday one of my designs will go viral as I so often see. For now, as I discussed above, that will remain in the Lord's hands! My job is to make cute stuff and have fun doing so!<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq"><h3><span style="font-size: medium;"><i>Here is my version of the project. My written instructions are an original work and are not copied from anyone else. Similarities will be due to the fact that this pattern is a recreation of a popular viral idea. There are many crochet patterns on the internet for crochet fish and fish aquariums, this is merely <u>one</u>. Enjoy!</i></span></h3></blockquote><br />

<br />
Finished Size: fish- 3” long, 2” tall plant- apx. 3” tall<br />
<br />
Special Stitches:<br />
<br />
Sc Inc- single crochet increase: make two single crochet in same stitch.<br />
Sc2tog- single crochet two together, a decreasing stitch: make one sc over two stitches.<br />
*sc, sc Inc* - instructions in asterisks are to be repeatedly worked over the round.<br />
<br />
<h3>Notes:</h3><br />
<ol><li>Fishy is worked in continuous unjoined rounds as is standard practice in amigurumi. Mark the first stitch of each round and work until you come back to the marker. Then begin next round in first st of previous round. </li>
<li>Rocks required: The 1” rock/pebble is to be glued into the base of the plant as a weight to keep it standing in the jar. </li>
<li>The gravel needed is for the base of the jar. Standard fish tank gravel may be used, as may play sand or other pea gravel to suit your desired look.</li>
<li>Paper clip is “skeleton” for the plant. Large 2" size is needed, not standard small paper clips. They may be called “jumbo” paper clips as well. I used plastic coated clips, and chose only the green colored clips.</li>
<li>In absence of safety toy eyes, you can embroider or puffy paint eyes on.</li>
<li>Fishing line/invisible thread is used to suspend fish from lid of jar so it appears to be floating or swimming just above the bottom of the jar.</li>

Pause here. The two sets of increases indicate the top and bottom of the fish. The increases in the rounds to follow will shape the tail.<br />

<br />
<ol><li>Align the fish vertically so you can insert the safety eyes. Practice the placement until you are satisfied. The posts of the eyes will fit in between stitches. </li>
<li>When pleased with eye placement snap safety backs on to the eye posts. This is most easily done by pushing the post out the opening of the fish so you can see it, then snap on the safety back and use your finger to reshape the fish. Repeat for other eye.</li>
<li>You can now begin stuffing the fish. Stuff fish to desired consistency by pushing stuffing in a little at a time. Continue below with round 12.</li>

Ch 3, dc 4 into the third loop from hook. Fasten off.<br />
<br />
<h3>Fish Finishing:</h3><br />
<br />
<ol><li>Add a tiny amount stuffing to tail, fold tail vertically in line with eyes. Tail will be closed by slip stitching through both layers. The top two and bottom two stitches will not be worked into.</li>
<li>Be sure stitched are aligned and Slip Stitch along tail working through both layers in back loop and front loop of both sides of the tail. Do not work in the last sc made or the previous one, but begin sl sts in the vertically aligned stitches that follow. Make 9 sl sts down the tail to the end, leaving the bottom two stitches unworked. Fasten off and weave in the end.</li>
<li>Sew fins evenly spaced onto the sides of the fish and weave in the ends. </li>
<li>Take a length of fishing line or invisible thread and tie it to the top of the fish. One or two rows above the tail should be the balancing point depending on how densely fish is stuffed. Experiment by letting fish hang. Use crochet hook to pull thread up or back a row to properly balance him.</li>

Make more rounds of 12 if necessary to ensure your rock is covered completely. Test rock coverage by fitting it into base before fastening off. An apx. 1” diameter pebble or rock should fit snugly into crocheted plant base. Once satisfied, finish off and tuck ends into inside of plant base. Prepare paperclip as follows below.<br />

<h3>Plant Skeleton- large paperclip</h3><div><br />
</div><ol><li>Using small needle nose or jewelry repair pliers straighten paperclip into “v” shape. </li>
<li>Make open ended loops on each tip of the v. This is so yarn can catch onto the end and not slip off. You will be crocheting on top of the paperclip once it is assembled into the plant skeleton.</li>
<li>Insert paperclip “v” into bottom of plant base as photographed. </li>
<li>Carefully line inside of plant base with hot glue and immediately fit rock inside. BE CAREFUL, hot glue will seep out of holes in crocheted work. DO NOT BURN YOURSELF!</li>
<li>Once assembled plant base and skeleton is completely cooled, proceed to crochet on top of skeleton as follows below.</li>

Row 1: Ch 1 and hdc over paperclip down to plant base. Twist and scrunch the row as you work to provide visual interest and fit as many stitches as possible onto plant arm. When base is reached, ch 1.<br />
<br />
Row 2: switch over to second plant arm and continue making hdc’s along over the paperclip up to the loop, same way as row 1. When satisfied with look of plant, fasten off and use pliers to close loop over last stitch to secure it as before.<br />
<br />
No need to weave in ends, simply pull starting and ending tails tight and trim to ½ cm in length. You may give one of the plant arms a slight bend if desired so it looks like it’s flowing in the sea!<br />

It's Saturday morning, May 19th and I just watched the royal wedding! It was amazing, beautiful- a fairy tale dream come true! Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex looked simply stunning in her silk Givenchy wedding dress! On that high note, I offer you a special fun summer pattern today. Seeing the beauty of the pageantry gave me the mental boost I needed to get this pattern out to you all!<br />
<br />
<div id="amzn-assoc-ad-d20ecee9-59ae-42d6-b1f2-57621c90bfff"></div><script async="" src="//z-na.amazon-adsystem.com/widgets/onejs?MarketPlace=US&adInstanceId=d20ecee9-59ae-42d6-b1f2-57621c90bfff"></script><br />
<br />
I admit, I wanted to get this pattern out last week. I had already made the purse but hadn't sat down to type it up and blog it. It honestly takes hours to get these blog posts out. You would not believe the number of steps it takes to publish new content. Not that I'm complaining- I love you guys and I love to bring you free crochet patterns and all kinds of fun anecdotes. Unfortunately, I've been dealing with some physical pain and symptoms that is making it a little hard to me to crochet lately. Because of this, I will be taking a small and well deserved summer break from the blog- June, and maybe July too. But God willing, I'll be back and ready to roll just in time for the Fall Crochet Season!<br />

In the meanwhile, I bring you the final item in my Market Collection. The Market Crossbody is a super cute and functional purse that you can wear and use all summer long!

The PDF download of the pattern includes instructions for a bonus piece- a matching wallet/coin purse. The matching wallet pattern is available only with the purchase of the PDF pattern from my Ravelry shop. The fun bonus is a thank you to everyone who supports Haute Kippy by making those small convenience purchases!<br />

Welcome again friends. It's really and truly, finally springtime! I love transitioning from cold weather accessories to spring/summer home and personal accessories. With that in mind, I know I've promised you a sequel (specifically a cowl) to match the very popular <a href="http://www.hautekippy.com/2018/03/sadie-boot-cuffs.html">Sadie Boot Cuffs</a>, but you're just going to have to wait until fall. It's too beautiful out now to pull out a warm and cozy cowl pattern. Sorry! But Don't fret, I have lots of beautiful goodies lined up for your summer hookin' fun.<br />
<br />
I have been wanting to make a wristlet for a while now. One evening this past winter, I gave myself permission to just start crocheting without any plan or design in mind and see what would come of it. What I conceived was something I originally wanted to call the "Lemon Drop Wristlet" I envisioned it in gray and yellow. I named it that because at the time I was experimenting with textured crochet stitches and was using the Lemon Peel stitch.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
Working off my first concept, I changed the pattern slightly to showcase my own textured stitch featured in the <a href="http://www.hautekippy.com/2018/03/market-coin-purse.html">Market Coin Purse</a>. I decided then, that it couldn't be called the Lemon Drop, because even though I finally saw it in its intended color scheme, it just wouldn't be right. I needed it to match it's little sister. And who knows, there may be another friend added to the Market stitch accessory collection. Anything is possible!<br />

What I've come to call the "market stitch" is a combination of stitches that creates a unique textured pattern. It is worked by alternating skipped stitches with (sc, hdc) together in the next st. I turn the rows (even when working in the round!) to create a really stunning textile that I hope you will love too!<br />

You could make this wristlet as a clutch, omitting the strap. You could also choose your own colors, or even make it in one solid color. The choice is yours. Let's get started together!<br />

<h3>
Special Stitches:</h3>
<div>
(sc, hdc)- sc and hdc together in the same stitch, a textured stitch.</div>
<div>
Sc2tog- single crochet two together, a reduction stitch.</div>
<div>
Fhdc- foundation half double crochet, a chainless foundation stitch.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h3>
Notes: </h3>
<div>
<ol>
<li>Wristlet is worked in the round, starting by working both sides of the starting chain. Form starting chain, and work sc’s into back bump of starting chain, continuing around and back up the other side of the starting chain, so that you end up with v’s on both sides of the foundation round to work in. </li>
<li>When joining rounds, pull joining sl st tight, ch 1, and then work first sc of next round in same st as join (join st = first st of round), textured rounds will sk first st and begin textured pattern in second st. This will keep all the joins aligned vertically along one edge of the wristlet.</li>
<li>Textured rounds are turned, be sure you are working the texture st in the sc of the previous round. </li>
<li>Rounds transition to gradually reducing rows to form closure flap with buttonholes.</li>
</ol>

Is it spring yet!? Here in WV we have been suffering from the world's longest winter. It's awful, we're almost half way through April and it's still snowing. I really hope that wherever you are warmer temperatures and sunshine are on the way!<br />
<br />
In other news, Little One is getting ready to go to pre-K, and I am in total shock at how this is at all physically possible. In a few short months mommy's baby will go to school like a big kid. I don't know how I'm going to handle this- the milestone, the emotions, all the free time! Gee whiz, I might just have to crochet some more. Looks like big times ahead for this little blog, we'll wait and see what He wills!<br />

Today we've got a sweet springtime headband. The Avery is worked in the same fun texture stitch as t<a href="http://www.hautekippy.com/2018/03/market-coin-purse.html">he Market Coin Purse</a>. It also features fun and challenging third loop crochet for those beautiful knit look rounds! We're working in Hobby Lobby's soft and fluffy I Love This Yarn in Menthe.<br />

I've included stitch counts to make four different sizes: baby, toddler, child and adult. Any pattern can be resized- that's what the gauge is for. You measure the person you want to fit, and use the gauge to tell you how many stitches to make per inch to fit that person. For ease of use, I've done the work for you on this pattern. Be sure to read all the pattern notes so you understand how to read this pattern with multiple sizes listed.<br />

Special Stitches:</h3>
<br />
(sc, hdc)- make both a sc and a hdc together in the same st, then skip the next stitch. When working subsequent round, be sure to work in the sc sts of previous round.<br />
<br />
Fhdc- chainless foundation half double crochet: a surprisingly easy technique for making the foundation row of a garment without chaining. Many helpful tutorials available online.<br />
<br />
Hdc in 3rd loop- half double crochet in the third loop: on the wrong side of hdc stitches, directly below the top “v” of the stitch, is a loop that looks like a long, slightly diagonal but horizontal bar. Make a normal hdc stitch in this loop, (instead of the “v” as normal). As you work, the “v” will push out sideways creating a “knit look” effect.<br />
<br />
Note: Stitch Counts for different sizes are listed in pattern in ascending order as follows- B (T, C, A) for Baby, Toddler, Child, and Adult.<br />

Hey Friends! </h3>
<br />
Got a real cute, quick little pattern for you this week! It's a taste of summer to come. I love the change of seasons, and unfortunately here we're still waiting for signs of spring. We keep bracing for more snow and winter never seems to end. I usually transition to creating more useful accessories, and home goods in spring time and summer. I tend to focus less on fashion and more on use.<br />

Here for you is a sweet little goody. I've been using my adorable<a href="http://www.hautekippy.com/2017/03/bitty-berries-coin-purse.html"> Bitty Berries Coin Purse</a> for months and months now, and it still looks amazing. It could use a good turn through the washer though. One thing I love about acrylic yarn is its ability to be machine washed and dried. I routinely wash my kids' boot cuffs and mittens throughout fall and winter. The always come out looking spectacular. I wash <a href="http://www.hautekippy.com/2015/11/crocheted-hanging-towel.html">my hanging towels</a> too.<br />

Finishing:<br />
<br />
Pivot work, keep right side facing, ch 1, sc evenly around entire edge of purse as follows:<br />
Make one sc per row down raw edge, sc in each st along bottom, and make 1 sc per row up other raw edge, make 2 sc in buttonhole ch-sp. Join the round when complete. Fasten off.<br />
Fold up bottom half of purse and line up stitches in order to slip stitch along both sides. Insert your hook through both layers and draw up a loop where you can sl st purse closed by working from bottom of purse up, sl st across opening (for both decorative and structural purposes), and sl st through both layers back down other side.<br />

Note: Which side you start on will depend on whether you are right or left handed. With front of purse facing, I, a left hander worked this step from left to right, I assume for a right hander the process would be reversed.<br />

Is spring here yet? Nope. It's still boot weather. Good. Here's one more late season boot cuff pattern for you. Recently I've been exploring with some textured stitches. I even made up my own. I'm sure it's not original, it's most likely been done before, there are literally thousands of crocheters who have been crocheting for hundreds of years. Truly, it's all been done in one form or another. But that doesn't mean we can't have fun, and celebrate it when something that looks really pretty comes out of our brains! This is what I made with my "made up" textured stitch.<br />

then this one will be a treat for you. I also have two other super cute boot cuff designs, the Pom <a href="http://www.hautekippy.com/2017/01/pom-pom-boot-cuffs.html">Pom Boot Cuff</a> and the <a href="http://www.hautekippy.com/2016/09/guest-post-sweet-scallops-boot-cuffs-on.html">Sweet Scallops Boot Cuff.</a> The scallops are still my total fav. but the plush and chic Sadie gives them a run for their money.<br />

The stitch o' the day here is the zigzag puff stitch. If you've never tried it then you're in for some fun. I love the way it makes the textile look almost woven! The stitch is pretty easy, I've provided a brief description for you, but if you're just not getting it, be sure to google some youTube videos to watch. There are tons of great tutorials out there. It's honestly, how I learned to crochet. I'm completely self taught!<br />

For these boot cuffs, I've made my samples using two types of yarns. Both are 4 medium worsted weight, but I've shown you two to illustrate how both yarns can work here. Pictured is shiny and smooth Red Heart Soft in Wheat; and fluffy, soft, I Love This Yarn in Graymist.<br />

Who has Olympic fever? This girl. We have been watching the games non-stop since the opening ceremony. I was watching when the first broadcast of the women's snowboarding competition was aired during the day. I was so amazed when I saw little Chloe Kim (who is a mere two inches taller than myself) win gold on the halfpipe. I was captured by her spirit and joy and couldn't stop watching. We stayed tuned in until they rolled out the winners' platforms and brought out those adorable medal avatars- the Korean stuffed tigers.</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
I knew that when I saw Chloe wearing that adorable chunky knit hat that it would instantly become a sensation! I admit that I really wanted to buy one. I wondered who made them, and I wanted to know more about the snowboarding team's uniform design, which cleverly mocked US space suits. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
After scouring the interwebs I realized that the hat would be impossible to purchase. I did discover that it was created by the snowboarding brand Burton, which designs and sells snowboards, apparel, accessories and gear. Burton designed the entire snowboarding uniform line for Team USA. </div>

I was sure that many fiber artists would be creating copy-cat designs to please droves of customers clamoring for the iconic hat. Clearly the hat is knit. Experienced crocheters and knitters can tell the difference. The challenge for me was how to recreate the knit-look ribbing with crochet techniques. </div>

I've decided that for my design, half double crochet in the third loop would be perfect to replicate the ribbing of Chloe's knitted hat. I'm sure there are lots of talented knitters out there who can duplicate it exactly. I've also enjoyed the hats and winter wear of other teams as well. For example, Ragnhild Mowinckel of Norway has been sporting this wide headband at nearly every event. From this picture it's not so plain but from what I've seen on TV this item is definitely crocheted! It would also be a fun one to recreate!</div>

I have actually made this hat twice. When I went to the store I bought two kinds of super bulky, wool and acrylic. The acrylic hat pictured below took two full skeins and felt so darn heavy on my head, I doubt it would be very nice to wear for too long. But the shine and visual effect this yarn gives the ribbing are unmatched. The pom pom is also much flouncier- like the Burton hat.</div>

I also made this first prototype 6 stitches longer than the finished product (featured in this pattern), and it requires the brim to be folded up much wider to achieve the same look as Chloe. The pattern hat, pictured below is made with wool. When the pattern was shortened 6 stitches it gives the hat just the right overall length. The pom pom came out a little stiffer, but I think it's very cute. If you try a different yarn be sure to show me how it turns out by using #hautekippy on social media!</div>

Special Stitches: HDC in 3rd Loop- Half double crochet in the third loop, on the WRONG side of the stitch, make a hdc in the long horizontal bar located directly under the “v” on top of the stitch indicated. This pushes the “v” out sideways, making a knit look ribbed pattern on the textile.</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Notes: It is possible to hdc in the 3rd loop of both the RIGHT and WRONG sides of an hdc stitch, however, in this pattern you are to turn the work at the end of the row and make the next row of hdc stitches in the wrong side (facing you) of the previous row. If you need help in determining the right and wrong sides of crochet work, many helpful videos and tutorials are available on the internet to explain this. </div>

Hey Friends! I'm a Girl Scout. Haven't I told you that before? That's right I'm a girl leadin', song singin', campin', craftin', SWAPn', cookie sellin' Girl Scout. I love Girl Scouts. I love the girls, I love the activities. I love the organization, I love the message and the mission.<br />

I recently made a little something to include in a gift basket my local council was donating to a regional meeting. The basket was kitchen themed. Naturally they looked at me and said, "Will you crochet something?". Of course I would! I decided to make two hanging kitchen towels. I had some towels that had green polka dots on them which I thought nicely fit the GS theme. I cut them to size and edged them my handy dandy overlock serger. I then used my own <a href="http://www.hautekippy.com/2015/11/crocheted-hanging-towel.html">Hanging Kitchen Towel crochet pattern</a> to crochet the top of the towels.<br />

They looked so cute, but needed a little 'something' to make them even more Girl Scout-y. I decided to make a Girl Scout Trefoil. What is a trefoil? It's a shape, with three rounded lobes. The Girl Scouts use a special trefoil with a three lobes and a pointed base as their main symbol. It looks like this:<br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
So I came up with a quick, easy and very cute crochet applique of the Girl Scout Trefoil symbol, and you can make one too! You can sew your trefoil onto any project and enjoy showing off your handmade Girl Scout pride.<br />

The Camo Hunting Snood and Neck Gaiter was originally designed for my father-in-law. Last Christmas I made him one in bright orange for hunting. I had so much orange yarn left over. Did you know orange yarn is hard to find in just the right hue? Big Girl's former cheerleading squad had colors of orange and black. I know- Halloween is the first thought in your mind! It was in mine too. I really disliked it at first. But you know what was so funny about that? As the year went on and we got closer to our teammates and grew in camaraderie and team spirit, we came to truly LOVE those colors, it was black and orange every day! I made lots of team spirit headbands and sold them at football games. I also got a little over zealous in my search for the perfect hue of orange to match the team colors. I accumulated a little too much orange yarn and that is how the original hunting snood was born.<br />

Where we live hunters are required to wear a certain amount of bright orange for safety, and I knew that my father in law only wore beanies and low collared shirts and coats. This left his neck open to the chill of winter winds. I designed this warming collar for him to be able to pull all the way up to his nose and tuck under the back of his hat and still be long enough to cover his neck deep into the collar of his coat or sweatshirt.<br />

My husband said "It's a gaiter!" when he saw it. I had to google, and yes there are tight to the skin cowls that when worn up on the neck are called "neck gaiters". A gaiter on its own is actually worn on the ankles and protects pants and the top of boots from water. Well, when his dad surprised me by asking for a second snood/neck gaiter it dawned on me, I never wrote the pattern down the first time I made it! How silly of me! Necessity is the mother of invention, and everything- I mean everything- I design or create from scratch for someone I always write it down and blog it later. That's where 99% of my crochet patterns come from!<br />
<br />
So saved from being lost to memory, here for you is the cowl/neck warmer/snood/gaiter/whateveryouwannnacallit that your favorite hunter has been waiting for. I didn't have a man handy when I was photographing this, so I just put it on and took selfies. But my husband has tried it on and guarantees that it is stretchy enough for him, his dad and just about any size man or woman.<br />

If you like the look of the ribbed design, make it for a woman, make it in any color, size it down for a kid, add stripes, change yarns, get crazy! Half the fun of crocheting is the wonderful customization nature of it. You can make anything you like in any way you choose.<br />
<br />
I worked in Red Heart Super Saver in Camouflage because camo-coloring was specifically requested of me. I think that this would look great in Red Heart's pink camo too, or any variegated for that matter.<br />

We've had a very special, extra small addition to our family recently. One of our cousins had her baby very, very early. In fact, she was born at just 27 weeks. Things were precarious at first, but now I'm happy to say she is growing faster than we could hope for!<br />
<br />

Immediately, I knew I needed to make preemie hats. I waited patiently until she was allowed to wear her own clothes. I made my best guess at her head circumference, based on photos of her and <a href="http://www.touchinglittlelives.org/size.html">a helpful chart</a> I found on the internet.<br />
<br />
I made her a basic beanie and added adorable kitty ears, as well as a cinched bow headband. Everything took mere minutes to make, and came out so teeny tiny! It's simply adorable. You can customize the look and add stripes, or just make one in every color. Once you start, you won't want to stop! Just look how precious!!!<br />

I made my favorite Preemie a gift selection of hats and headbands in different sizes so she could grow into them during her stay in the NICU. Work these adorable little do's in any worsted weight yarn, refer to gauge for sizing and resizing. Remember, some thicker yarns will yield bigger stitches and thinner yarns will yield smaller stitches, adjust gauge accordingly to imitate my results. This can be achieved by either adjusting working tension or hook size. </div>

This pattern includes instructions for both a beanie and a messy bun style. I'm working with Red Heart Super Saver Stripes in Favorite Stripe, it's the rainbow colored one. I love rainbows. I love rainbow patterns and and rainbow colors. Bright multi-colored yarns always appeal to me and I find myself buying skeins of variegated yarns and not knowing what to make with them. Does this ever happen to you? I tried making my ready made goods in so many colors for people to choose from, but no one wants cerulean, chartreuse and magenta accessories. Neutral is the thing. I had to increase my stash of neutrals just to appease my customer base. I know what you're thinking. Poor thing, she had to buy more yarn! Anyway...<br />

The variegation pattern to this yarn is specific: It starts at green with a double length and moves to yellow, orange, red, purples and a double length of blue before transitioning back to purple, red, orange, yellow, and into a double length of green before transitioning back to yellow, orange, red, purple and back to another double length of blue. The pattern continues in this way.<br />

I start my hat at green because I like the way the blue repeats back into purple and red near the middle of the hat. If you want to have a complete-non repeating rainbow pattern, you can very easily cut and ball the yarn, reattaching at the desired color.<br />
<br />
I made a fun applique heart to the hat to add to the brightness. It's simply <a href="http://www.hautekippy.com/2017/06/applique-patches.html">my applique patches pattern</a> heart made with a larger hook (the H hook). You can size the heart up or down using a hook of your choosing. The heart can be sewn on or slip stitched on. I prefer to slip stitch the heart on. I take up the yarn from inside the hat and make slip stitches along the outline of the heart. This gives the heart a nice crisp border and secures it cleanly. Simply join with an invisible join, tie the ends in a strong square knot, and pull them into the space between the heart and the hat to hide.<br />

Ho Ho Ho! It's almost Christmas! Last year at this time- and I can't believe it's already been a year- I published my first amigurumi pattern. Check out my super cute and quirky <a href="http://www.hautekippy.com/2016/11/corn-on-cob.html">Corn Cob Christmas Ornament.</a> It's so adorable! My kids loved seeing it come out of the ornament box this year, they had fun deciding where to place it on the tree.<br />
<br />
<br />
This year, we continue our season of hats with a special two-in-one blanket hat pattern! Blanket yarn has been around for a little while now. It's super bulky and super fun to work with. Anything you make will work up quick due to the bulk, and be very fluffy, warm and fuzzy. I've got another blanket yarn pattern as well, <a href="http://www.hautekippy.com/2017/02/luxury-spa-wrap.html">my luxurious spa wrap</a>.<br />

This hat was designed for a very special girl I know. She loves to wear a hat 24/7 as a source of security and her sensory processing is comforted by soft textures. She feels nice and snug when she can tie the ear flaps under her chin. This hat checks all the boxes for her, and I'm sure, many other people. Who couldn't love the softness of a blanket crocheted into the warmest hat ever?<br />

<h4>
The Snowball Bun Hat!</h4>
Thanks for indulging me friends. The season of bun hats continues with my second variation on the Kip Bun Hat. This one is simply precious! It's called the Snowball because the bobbles are in white, contrasted by a rich navy blue. The pattern features alternating color changes and the changes on the brim are especially complicated. This pattern will be an Intermediate Level for this reason.<br />
<br />

<br />
I have used a shimmering white yarn to make the "snowballs" really pop and shine! This hat is an adorable winter style that you will truly love! It's definitely one of a kind.<br />

<br />
<h4>
Now about those color changes... </h4>
<div>
It's gonna get tricky around here. I've managed to find a way, and I'm sure it's not the only way nor am I the first one to do this, but I haven't really seen this done anywhere else. I change colors every other stitch while simultaneously alternating between dc and fpdc to create a depth in the color field unlike anything else I've seen lately! It's a pretty cool way to crochet and it looks amazing! I don't even know what to call this technique, but I can describe it to you as best I can and hope you're willing to try it out with me.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGCEwUxlXCri0afnNrW3aBzAYwZ22o1R1KVUvE-HrThTD1J77O7D7ONRpnHbsIsgsXONJTKypvkunfJiU-go53-AjbKCakeo0oXqCRqu8VkEKRsnv32Yen8-SUZjDNRZ89qeBsNF9jKIk/s1600/IMG_2139.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGCEwUxlXCri0afnNrW3aBzAYwZ22o1R1KVUvE-HrThTD1J77O7D7ONRpnHbsIsgsXONJTKypvkunfJiU-go53-AjbKCakeo0oXqCRqu8VkEKRsnv32Yen8-SUZjDNRZ89qeBsNF9jKIk/s640/IMG_2139.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<h3>
Here's how I do it...</h3>
<div>
<br /></div>
The last three rounds of the hat are comprised of double crochet and front post double crochet stitches that alternate colors every other stitch. The dc's are made in white and the fpdc's are made in navy. To accomplish this we must switch colors before the stitch is completed. Make the stitch indicated up to the final yo, then pick up the alternating color and finish the stitch. Continue by beginning the next stitch in the color just picket up, to the final yo, then pick up previous color and finish the stitch. Continue in this manner, repeating the process to make each stitch in alternating color pattern. What this creates is a rich and dynamic texture, the navy fpdc stitches pop out from the white background mimicking the bobbles above them in contrast.<br />
<br />
It may take some practice, it's definitely an awkward maneuver to switch yarns so often. Once you get the hang of it, this decorative technique is one you can employ to add visual interest to any number of projects... including <a href="http://www.hautekippy.com/2016/09/guest-post-sweet-scallops-boot-cuffs-on.html">my Sweet Scallops Boot Cuffs,</a> which also use fpdc stitches!<br />

I told you this would be a season of bun hats, and I won't hold out on you. Even though I didn't make enough time to publish two patterns last month (I tend to prioritize my kids over the blog most of the time) I've still got some new designs and some new plays on old designs that I'm drying to share with you. Recently I've been delving into colorwork and have been having a lot of fun re-working old patterns into amazing new creations.<br />

Today we're taking a new look at <a href="http://www.hautekippy.com/2017/01/kips-bun-hat.html">Kip's Bun Hat</a>. A client recently showed me a photograph of a hat in certain colors, burgundy, teal and rich royal purple, but she wanted it in the style of the Kip. Intrigued, I began working the rounds of my most familiar pattern alternating the colors into what turned out to be a stunningly beautiful combination.<br />
<br />
Named in my client's honor the Andi was born! It turned out absolutely spectacularly and I couldn't be more pleased.<br />
<br />
We are going to be doing some color changes, so this makes the Andi one of my few Intermediate Level patterns. If you're still a beginner, don't be intimidated, try it out! And if you love the look of Andi but want to make it in a solid color, or just aren't feeling the color changes then visit the original <a href="http://www.hautekippy.com/2017/01/kips-bun-hat.html">Kip's Bun Hat pattern</a>.<br />

<br />
Another word to the wise, any of my bun hats can be converted to toboggans (with no bun hole) by using the following formula:<br />
<br />
<h3>
Bun Hat to Regular Hat Conversion Formula</h3>
<br />
<ol>
<li>Begin with magic ring</li>
<li>Stitch 10 into magic ring, pull closed, join, ch 1 (10 sts)</li>
<li>Stitch 2 into each st around, join, ch 1 (20 sts)</li>
<li>*Stitch 1, st 2* around, join, ch 1 (30 sts)</li>
<li>continue following pattern at round 2.</li>
</ol>
<div>
This works because all my bun hat patterns start with 30 stitches around an elastic hair tie. The diameter of the hair tie is approximately two rounds of crochet, therefore, to begin without a hole, make two rounds which eventually equals 30 stitches. Then you can continue any bun hat pattern after the beginning hair tie round. The formula uses the word "stitch" instead of specifying which stitch to ensure it is applicable to any pattern. Simply substitute in whichever stitch the bun hat you are working requires. For my bun hats, that's usually the HDC. It's kinda my favorite stitch. Now let's do this!</div>

Is the weather starting to turn in your neck of the woods yet? Our fall foliage is so beautiful, and we've had an unseasonable warm streak to enjoy it! I hope that wherever you are, you are having a beautiful autumn. To continue with our "Season of Hats" I have a very special children's hat for you today.<br />
<br />

The request for this hat came from the very sweet friend of my cousin. Her daughter is just the cutest, and she has a beautiful head full of springy, bouncy, natural black hair. She loves to wear winter hats, but there aren't any in the stores that can accommodate her luscious locks. She loves the idea of bun hats, but can't find any with two holes instead of one.<br />
<br />
I've said it before and I'll say it again, necessity is indeed the mother of invention. When you need something, and can't find it, make it! (Or crochet it)<br />
<br />
Now my friend's daughter and my Little One are about the same age. Though she has the wrong kind of hair to get the desired affect, I used Little One as a model and guinea pig to make the Jailen Puff Hat. So named for the self described "puffs" of hair that my little client loves to sport as part of her favorite hair-do.<br />
<br />

I wanted to make sure that the hat was warm and comfy, had cute styling and most importantly could accommodate those two puffs of hair. If your little love has straight hair, feel free to adjust the size of the holes on the sides of the hat making them slightly smaller.<br />
<br />
This design features the same fun bobbles as <a href="http://www.hautekippy.com/2017/01/kips-bun-hat.html">the Kip Bun Hat</a>, with a knit look brim, and of course two big and cozy holes at just the right place for pigtails or hair puffs!<br />
<br />
If you have a natural haired little beauty of your own but don't crochet, please's don't fret. Although I have converted my online sales to patterns only, I still make and sell ready made goods. I sell locally, at craft shows, and through the mail. I take all major cards and <a href="http://paypal.me/hautekippy">PayPal</a> and I always ship for free. If you need a Jailen Puff Hat (or any item I've designed) you can contact me on <a href="http://facebook.com/hautekippy">Facebook</a>, or <a href="mailto:hautekippy@gmail.com">via email</a>.<br />

<h4>
Now let's get started! </h4>
<br />
<ul>
<li>Yarn: I Love This Yarn </li>
<li>Hook: H8/5mm </li>
<li>Gauge: 6 sts = 2" in HDC or 1 bobble repeat = 1"</li>
<li>Materials: Tapestry needle</li>
<li>Difficulty: Easy</li>
<li>Finished size: child/toddler apx. 16" before stretching</li>
</ul>
<br />
These are the type of tapestry needles I use. Yarn needles are often too big for successfully weaving in ends, and worst of all most of them are plastic. Great for kids and beginners, not so much for hard core crocheters. Trust me a big metal needle makes all the difference!<br />
<br />

<li>Work in the third loop- make stitch indicated in the long horizontal bar found on the wrong side of the hdc stitch as opposed to the "v" in the top of the stitch.</li>
</ul>

I'll tell you what, <a href="http://www.hautekippy.com/2017/01/kips-bun-hat.html">for me not being a "hat person"</a> I have sure been having fun making and designing some new bun hats lately! I've enjoyed looking through my stash and working on color combinations. I've been inspired by special requests from customers, and have had my imagination sparked by new yarn purchases. I've come up with updates for previous designs, and fun ideas for new patterns. It's going to be a season of bun hats here on Haute Kippy! <br />

After some unforeseen circumstances occurred this summer, I ended up having to take an unwanted hiatus from working on crochet, the blog and pattern development in general. I had set a goal for myself as a new blogger to publish two new patterns a month over the summer, and when crochet season starts up again (i.e. now) I would up the ante to four new patterns a month, one for each week. Unfortunately for me, the things that happened late this summer prevented me from meeting that new goal. So I'm starting fresh this month and keeping my goal at two new patterns per month. Yay for you! We're taking baby steps here on the homefront and until the situations allow, we will just be grateful for God's grace and mercy and take each day, week and month as it comes.<br />
<br />
The good news is that the Lord shelters and protects those who love Him and I will undoubtedly emerge from this trial better for having withstood the test, purified, as gold withstands the fires of refinement. If you ever need encouragement during a dark time and have no where to turn, please know dear friend and fellow crafter, that you can reach out to me and I will share my source of strength with you. I heart you. Now dry it up- we've got stuff to make! ;)<br />

I've since been blessed with my first craft/vendor show opportunity- a long standing prayer faithfully answered! Once I got back to work, I couldn't stop making items to stock my craft table. I'm so excited finally show my wares and make real sales!<br />

Another exciting development is the announcement of my upcoming mini-eBook! I have just been blown away at the response to the <a href="http://www.hautekippy.com/2017/02/gina-messy-bun-hat.html">Gina Messy Bun Hat</a> in its first months online the free pattern racked up over 12,000 pageviews and it has been by far my best selling PDF download. I launched the idea for my mini-eBook giveaway as a means to boost Gina to 20,000 pageviews. A lofty goal I know, but one I believe can be achieved. Once Gina hits 20K, I will choose 10 winners who have shared the contest post on social media to receive a free copy of my new mini-eBook, featuring the Gina, and other popular winter weather crochet patterns from my design cache. After the contest, the mini-eBook will be available for sale on Ravelry, Etsy, and most excitingly- will be published to Amazon!<br />

Want more fun bun hats? My friends at <a href="http://allfreecrochet.com/">allfreecrochet.com</a> have plenty to share! I love free patterns, and All Free Crochet has thousands. There are individual patterns to browse as well as fabulous bun hat pattern collections. You'll find a bun hat to suit your every need!<br />
<br />
So here's my latest bun hat, and one of my first yarn-specific patterns. I have been designing things that can be made out of any old worsted weight yarn. But I've been focusing on colorwork lately and the patterns you'll see coming forward will likely call for very specific yarns in certain colors in order to get the look shown. I often mix yarn brands so if you're a purist, be forewarned! I shop at the big four, (Hobby Lobby, AC Moore, Michaels and JoAn) and very often use store brands such as Nicole, and ILTY. I may mix brands but I won't mix words!<br />

<span style="font-size: large;">These little girls love bows! Big bows, small bows, sparkly bows.... crocheted bows? Yes. We are all about bows in my house. My little one will wear a bow every day and my big girl loves to wear big bows to school with a ponytail. I don't know about you but I'm not particularly good at working with ribbon, and tying bows. Also, wide grosgrain ribbon can be pretty pricey! But you and I know how to crochet, right? And we've also got tons of yarn, don't we? It's OK I won't tell anyone how big your stash is! So lets make our own trendy hair bow in any color we want!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">To make this crocheted Bow Bow Barrette you will need to purchase alligator hair clips. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">I purchased these alligator clips from Amazon. They are nice and large 3" in length, just perfect for this project and many others. They're a good value and are exactly the same style clip that comes on large fancy store-bought ribbon bows.<span style="text-align: center;"> </span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">You'll also need a hot glue gun, yarn needle and any worsted weight yarn. Here's a great glue gun, perfect for this project. With so many other household uses, if you don't already have a glue gun, now is the time.</span></div>

<br />
You totally need this new super simple, quick and easy sanitizer holder for a very obvious reason. Let me explain: <a href="http://www.hautekippy.com/2017/04/bitty-berries-sanitizer-holder.html">The first sanitizer holder I made</a> is really adorable and has little bitty berries on it! Only problem.... Bath & Body Works went and changed their whole mini sanitizer bottle style as soon as I got the design done!<br />

<a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/LuLaRoeLetetiaHarper/">My dear cousin Letetia</a>, for whom the <a href="http://www.hautekippy.com/2017/06/tisha-bow-headband.html">Tisha Bow Headband</a> is lovingly named is a fabulous <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/LuLaRoeLetetiaHarper/">LuLaRoe clothing consultant</a>. We love to support each other in our respective endeavors and often team up as such. She likes to treat her customers to a gift with purchase and since we both have an obsession with Bath and Body Works (I'm an admitted Pearberry addict) we decided on mini hand sanitizers outfitted with my adorable crocheted holders. It's a brilliant idea, and they are a hit for sure! It was through these little prizes that I came up with the simple, quick working yet sturdy and fun sanitizer holders. And now that we have a new rounded mini sanitizer bottle design I've re-worked the pattern for a whole new experience! You're going to love it.<br />

I'm telling you folks, this is Christmas- DONE! Thank you gift- NAILED! You need do nothing more than trot off to the mall, grab a dozen of these lovely little babies, get to hookin' and you'll be covered for nearly every gifting occasion you can think of. I even gave one to my daughter's teacher at the end of the school year. Everyone loves these, you simply can't go wrong. I know, I digress... but seriously #notspons.<br />
<br />
This easy pattern can be made in any worsted yarn. I have used dozens of colors and made countless holders and they all work like a charm. You may be wondering, "but hey girl, those bottles are round and they don't have much of a neck and won't my sanizier just slip out of the crocheted holder once it stretches, as does all crochet?". Well no. I made myself one in dreamy, luscious Red Heart With Love in Minty and it has been on my purse for at least a couple months. In fact the sanitizer is almost all used up. It's been through the airport, yanked on by toddlers, banged around, pulled and used nearly daily and that fat little round bottle has not even looked like it was going to budge. I'd wager to say it works!<br />

<h4>
Now lets get cracking!</h4>
<br />
All you need is a small ball of any worsted yarn, your H/5mm hook, and a small button. I like to use buttons between 7/8" and 1" in diameter for this project. It adds visual interest and gives you something to look at in contrast with the simple pattern.<br />
<br />
Yarn: any worsted<br />
Hook: G6/4mm<br />
Materials: Yarn needle, 1" button, hand sanitizer<br />
Difficulty: Beginner<br />
Guage: no gauge<br />
<br />
Check out this amazing bundle of mini hand sanitizers! You could work the holders while you wait. I bet you could make a dozen by the time your sani's arrive!<br />

Hi to all my happy hookers! I hope you're having a fantastic summer! I know I am. I've been saving this little ditty for you, for a rainy day (or more like a sunny, extremely busy summer month). As a farewell to June mini-celebration, here is a fun little pattern I worked up a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away....</h3>

<h4>
The Tisha </h4>
<br />
It's a pattern named for someone very special. You know who you are! *winky face, heart emoji*<br />
<br />
I love this simple headband. I've made tons of them and have been making them for months. Only, I've never written the pattern down until now. I've kept the original specs on a tiny handwritten note in the cubby next to my big comfy work chair. It's a wonderful beginner pattern, and is very easy to work. For the experienced crocheter, it can be worked in as little as a half an hour. I've included instructions for making in three sizes: adult, child and toddler.<br />
<br />

This pattern is so versatile, it can be made in so many different ways. No matter how you choose to construct this headband, it'll turn out adorable every time- guaranteed! It's wide enough to be an ear warmer and is a very popular in-demand winter weather accessory. You can make it more narrow to be a warm weather sweet headband.You can make it to fit any person, and make it as wide or as narrow as you like. Change colors for a striping effect, work in solids, metallics or variegated for a bounty of beautiful easy to make, quick to work headbands.<br />
<br />
Makes a great gift. Make them in team colors, or make enough for the whole team! I did them in black and orange last year and all my daughter's little cheerleader friends looked so cute sporting them. I also paired this headband with <a href="http://www.hautekippy.com/2016/11/quick-mitts.html">my Quick Mitts</a> fingerless mittens in matching colors and gave them as gifts this past Christmas. They were a massive hit- everyone loves getting matching sets of accessories!<br />

<br />
<br />
This headband, like some of my other patterns includes the foundation half double crochet (FHDC). If you don't know how to foundation crochet, I highly suggest you visit YouTube, and look up some instructional videos. I have also included written instructions for the stitch with my <a href="http://www.hautekippy.com/2017/03/easy-fishnet-gloves.html">Easy Fishnet Gloves pattern</a>. It's a very valuable skill to learn because sometimes chaining, and working into a starting chain can create a tightened effect, making the foundation row not as stretchy and wearable as the rest of the garment. To make every row equally stretchable and comfortable to wear, chainless foundation crochet is the way to go!<br />
<br />
If you're not quite there yet, have no fear, even a novice crocheter can make this pattern. Simply Chain the appropriate number according to the size you wish to make, join, and work into the starting chain for round 1. Just be sure to chain on the looser side if you are a tight tension worker.<br />

<br />
Hook: H8/5MM<br />
Yarn: any Worsted<br />
Gauge:<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;"> 7 sts = 2” in HDC</span><br />
Notions: Yarn needle<br />
Difficulty: Easy</div>
<br />
Note: To make band wider for ear warmers<span style="text-align: center;">, make more than 8 rows. To make a summer headband, make fewer rows. When making for child/toddler- 5 rows is usually wide enough. Feel free to get creative when making your own headbands, they can be as wide or as narrow as you want.</span><br />
<br />
Round 1: FHDC 63, join to top of first fhdc with a sl st.<br />
(For Child size 57, toddler 53)<br />
<br />
Round 2: Ch 1, hdc in same st as join, and in every stitch around, join. (63 sts)<br />
<br />
Rounds 3-8: Repeat round 1. FO at end of round 8.<br />
<br />
Finishing: Use the starting tail to close the small gap at the first join and attach the bottom ends of the foundation row together. Then take the starting and ending tails, and tie them together over top of the right side of the headband, trim ends. Take extra yarn and wrap around tied/joined section of headband repeatedly to form a bow's "knot". Wrap to apx. 1" wide to hide the seam. Break yarn, and thread tail with a yarn needle. Turn headband to wrong side and secure end of wrapping yarn by sewing back and forth under the "knot" and through headband, taking care stitches do not bleed through to right side. Sew back and forth several times to permanently secure it in place. Cut yarn close to "knot".<br />

<h4>
Summer is officially here! </h4>
Summertime is a time of year when I do a lot of sewing. When the weather turns I sort through all the girl's clothing and see what can be saved for next year and what goes for donation. Often items need to be mended from wear and tear, or altered for wearing in warmer temperatures. One of my favorite things to do is take the long sleeve shirts that still fit and cut and hem them to become tank tops or short sleeve shirts. The kids get so excited when their favorite top can be made "new" and worn even longer! It reduces the amount of new clothes that need to be bought and is a fun creative outlet for me. I love to keep my sewing machine out this time of year so I can fix something old, or create something new- any time I want!<br />
<br />
A pitfall of summer time is the increased outdoor play and the inevitable skinned knees. My kids love their leggings. Most of the time they flat out refuse to wear pants or jeans. Who can blame them, leggings are so soft, stretchy and comfy. But when a little one playing falls down, we often get a hole in the knee of those beloved leggings. After the tears dry, many parents probably wonder what can be done with a perfectly good pair of pants that still looks great, other than a hole in the knee.<br />

Sure you can throw them away, but why don't you make an adorable patch and sew it on? It's so easy! I have developed easy to follow patterns- three in one- for you to choose from. Mix and match, in different yarns and different colors to make a bow, a heart or a star applique that can be sewn on to cover up any hole in your little one's favorite pants.<br />
<br />
Get even more creative! Try an applique on your backpack, jazz up a plain t-shirt or even the pocket of a pair of jeans. The possibilities are endless as you play with these fun shapes and their many uses.<br />

<br />
Either DK or wosted weight yarn can be used for this pattern, I used both to show there is only a small difference in the applique's final size. Use a G6/4.0mm hook for either yarn. When you've made your desired applique simply treat it like any patch: place over hole in garment to be mended, and using needle and thread, sew into place!<br />
<br />
Disclaimer:<br />
The pattern for the star is a general method, I have seen this way of making a star all over the internet, it is not an original or different method of crocheting stars. I am not claiming that the star design is unique or new. I have simply recorded for your ease of use, the common way to crochet a basic star shape. The heart and bow pattern are however, original works- they turned out simply by my trial and error.<br />

Hey there! In <a href="http://www.hautekippy.com/2017/05/pear-kitchen-scrubby.html">my last post</a>, I shared that I'm updating my kitchen with a mini-face lift. I honestly do need new cabinets, or at least to repair and paint them properly. But this is a MAJOR project and one I couldn't tackle by myself, so I'm finding other little ways to spruce things up. I've got lots of lime green going on and recently I made a new cover for my traditional red stand mixer. I love my mixer and when I got it, the color never mattered. It is a beautiful machine and a wonderful and worthwhile tool to have. So many uses! It should be kept covered up, so the bowl stays clean and ready for use when you are ready to cook. I had been gifted a matching red cover, and it's super nice- made of quilted fabric and has a handy pocket to keep oft used recipes in. Now with my new look, I needed to update that as well.<br />

If you guys totally LOVE this mixer cover I'll be happy to make a sewing post and show you all just how I've done it. Message me or leave me a comment and let me know if you want to see a step by step of how I made this cover.<br />
<br />
Along with this new mixer cover, I also wanted to update my stool covers. This is actually the third version I have made. I developed this pattern a long time ago, even before I started this blog! It's one I've held on to and never shared until now. I've made these in acrylic yarn but they stretch entirely too much- kitchen cotton is best. I've also tried with a magic ring for starting, but this tends to pull open after some use- starting chains are best here as well.<br />

Let's get started!<br />
<br />
My stools measures 13" in diameter and is around 1" thick. If your stool is comparable to this, try my pattern first then determine whether to add rounds later. If your stool is wider or thicker, or both you may try going up one hook size, or simply add rounds to the end of the pattern- until the cover just reaches the edge of the stool. Crochet is very stretchy by nature and these will look too small at first.<br />

There is no gauge with this pattern because the size of your stool is subjective. As is the nature of crochet, the covers are very prone to stretching. The cover will look too small at first but with some muscle will stretch to fit tightly. Eventually after some wear they will stretch out. If your stool is comparable in diameter but is thicker than 1”, try adding rnds at end of pattern (after rnd 12) to accommodate thickness. Make one cover for however many stools you have. One skein I Love This Cotton should make two covers with some leftover. </span></div>
