The Crochet Mintmallow Holiday Graphghan is an intermediate level free holiday pattern reminiscent of peppermint cocoa with marshmallows. I wanted this pattern to convey that cozy peppermint hot chocolate feeling. The Scandinavian snowflake represents the milk and marshmallows I like to put in my cocoa. Wishing for snow this holiday season, so baby girl and I can watch through the window while huddled up in this soft treat blanket.
The Crochet Velkommen Entryway Mat is an easy and quick to make free pattern. Kick off your shoes and hop into some comfy slippers! I’ve been itching to try out recycled t-shirt yarn after seeing it used in so many projects. This melded with the fact that we desperately needed an entryway mat to put our shoes on to minimize the spread of dirt around the house. Trying to convert us to a no shoes household, so I wanted somewhere guests could also leave their shoes and grab a pair of slippers. After reading a few descriptions, I chose Hoooked because its details seemed the best option for a rug-style project and it was also machine washable.
The Crochet Burtney Coasters set is a simple and fun free pattern that gives you daily decor on one side and a spooky surprise on the other. I love the harvest season and snuggling down with a hot mug of cider for fall movie nights. What could go better with this scene than some adorable coasters? I went back and forth with design options. Farmhouse or Halloween? I couldn’t choose, so I said why not both. Side A was inspired by Mud Pie. Absolutely obsessed with this brand and want every piece of their punny kitchenware. Side B was born from my love of Halloween movies. I’m not a horror kind of girl, so I skip right over the scary movies and go straight for nostalgia (aka Disney). My favorite set of Halloween movies includes what I call the Burtney collection. Having two sides makes these coasters perfect for your everyday look or Halloween. Plus, the size works great with larger mugs!
The Crochet Cozy Harvest Sampler Throw Blanket is an intermediate friendly free pattern using a few stitches to create a variety of textures. Growing up autumn was a big time for my family. My siblings and I all have fall birthdays and, of course, two major holidays occur during this time. As with many families, one of our traditions was the annual pumpkin patch visit. We’d have amazing fun picking out our special pumpkins and running through the corn maze. This year we got to pass on the tradition to our own little pumpkin. This cozy crochet blanket is reminiscent of the corn rows and pumpkins with sparkling black added to bring it together.
