Give Granny a Hand

Give Granny a Hand

I made this pattern after brain storming things for more of the rocker type person, and came up with making devil / rock on horns. I just fell in love with the idea and went to work making a hand that i then turned into a granny square. I realized very fast this was so much more then the devil horn it started out to be and it really was so much more! I hope you have fun making all the different hand gestures you can make with it not to mention sign language signs!

Crochet Pirate Applique Set ... swords, hooks, spyglass,maps and more!

The Pirate Applique Set

I made this pattern set for my youngest son because he is in love with pirates. I have been making him a blanket he insisted on having because his older brother has one so why not. I'm almost finished with it when he informs me it needs to be a yo-ho blanket (pirate blanket)! I was not about to frog or start a new blanket as I am so close to completing it, so I came up with all these little appliques to put on it, and I am very happy with they way they came out! Hope you enjoy them as much as my son and happy hooking!
