WIP Wednesday | Cozy Blanket

After finishing the cowl from my previous post, I decided to start working on my second blanket!
This is my first time using Bernat Blanket yarn and so far I'm really liking it. I chose a looser pattern with this yarn because its easy to work up and not so hard on my hands. I'll post more progress pictures on my Instagram if you're interested in seeing it in more detail.

Hey friends! Today I'm bringing you a new project that is getting me so excited for colder days!
For a few months now I've been looking for the perfect pink chunky yarn to make a scarf for a mentor of mine at church. She is so lovely, caring and gives so much of herself that I knew I wanted to make her something as a thank you for everything she has done for me. She's a mature, elegant woman whose favorite color happens to be pink so not any 'ol pink would do for her! I stopped into Michael's to shop their sale and came across the perfect sophisticated pink! Yay!
Prior to my shopping trip, one night as I was browsing my crochet Facebook groups I came across Megan from Left in Knot's post about her newest creation. This pattern's texture and size gave me all the crochet feels and I immediately saved it onto my Ravelry account. When I saw this yarn I knew these two belonged to each other. I am so in love friends!
She went off to her new home and was instantly loved!
Stay tuned to my Instagram to see more of my current projects. What are your WIPs this week? Any fun fall patterns?

You can find Megan's Sprinkle Cowl pattern here.
My new favorite yarn is on sale at Michael's until September 16th!

WIP Wednesday

I've been crocheting all the things lately so I thought I would share some of what I've been working on, my WIPs (Works in Progress) as the cool kids say.

For the past month I have been working on making baby hats for a parish wide baby shower at my church. So far I've made 20 cute little hats and plan on making even more by the end of September. This project has been so rewarding and I thank God everyday for blessing me with a skill that can offer comfort to so many.

I've used a couple different types of yarn for these but my favorite by far has been the Caron Baby Cakes. The yarn is so squishy and soft and the variegated colors are awesome. Thankfully I found them for 50% off at Michael's so I was able to buy more than enough for this project. Hope they make more because they have a fan for life! #yarnmakesmehappy

If you crochet and are interested in making any of these, just shoot me a comment and I'll share with you how I concocted my own pattern from a few I found.

Happy Wednesday!
