As promised, I finally have this pattern duet done & dusted – I trust both patterns will be easy to read & understand & provide many hours of happy crocheting….

PDF Crochet Pattern, Spiral Beanie & Cowl Set ~ A super flattering accessory duet ~ 2 easy to follow patterns that can be adapted to suit sizes small, medium & large – see my patterns 4 sale page

As with all my recent patterns I like to think that even the most basic beginner will be able to have a go.

Crochet Beanie & Cowl Sets – beautiful & practical….

My freeform inspirations have been at a low ebb lately but, never one to be idle for long, I’ve been crocheting these lovely beanie/cowl sets  just to keep my hands busy – hopefully I’ll get the pattern written soon too… meanwhile these items can be purchased from my Etsy & Zibbet shops

The Alice Beanie Fest 2010

I’m a bit late posting this year – why is time whizzing by at such breakneck speed?

So…. it’s that time of year again when all the beanie nuts come out of the woodwork to show off their creations at the Alice Springs Beanie Festival & what a wonderful collection of talent there is to see again this year – take note of my cyber friend, Megan Jack’s entry… she receive a well deserved special mention for her amazing beanie ‘Under Ones Sun’ in the Loveliest Madcap Category – hopefully one day I’ll get to visit this fabulous Aussie event….

Here are my entries for 2010

‘Blue Mountains’ – A freeform Crochet snood – lots of bullions, spirals, tunisian patches & a scattering of beads to add some bling

‘Country Life’ – is an upcycled beanie made from an old woollen jumper that has been felted then cut & sewn into shape – corkscrew tassels added to the crown to finish

Happiness for your Hair…..

I made a few of these cute little hair combs as custom orders & thought I’d share the happiness  – the flowers were crochet then felted & hand dyed – a bit of fun….
