Thread the tail of the yarn on a needle

 and sew the gap closed.

now choose a button, if you want,

and sew it in the center of the Flower.

Hobby Lobby in the Scrap Booking section.

This is my favorite flower to use on hats, 

bags, dog sweaters and more.

Summer Bucket Hat Crochet Pattern

Ladies Summer Bucket Hat 
Crochet Pattern
 By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

My Hubby is always getting so sunburned 

while working out in the yard.

 He loves working on his tractor, but he forgets to wear a hat. 

When he does wear a hat, it's a baseball cap,

 which lets his neck get so sunburned.

So I made him a Cotton Bucket hat to cover 

his head and his neck.

I Liked it so much I decided I needed one too!

Hat Fits a 18 to 20 inches head

It is a loose fitting hat, and very comfy to wear on a warm day.

I chose to make it out of Cotton yarn,

 so it would be cooler,

 but you can use any worsted weight (4)yarn, 

and the hat will work up just fine.

We Just retested and Updated This Crochet Pattern with lots of New Pictures and a Brand New Video

Bon Bon The Owl UP sized!!

As some of you know, we had a fun Challenge using

Lion Brand Bon Bon Yarns.

I just love these little yarns.

they are so fun and 

have lots of fun design possibilities.

Any way, Back to the Challenge.

The winner Was 

Heidi Yates of Snappy Tots

With her design,

Bon Bon The Owl

You can find her pattern in her 

Ravelry Shop

I thought it would be fun to crochet one

up using a (4) worsted weight yarn.

As the Bon Bon yarns are 2 or 3 weight.

I used  a H hook, and a bright variegated yarn 

I already had, for the bottom and the feathers, 

I then used a teal for the top and the draw string.

The bag measures

 9 inches long and 14 inches around.

Just the perfect size bag for a lunch bag, 

small purse or just a fun treasure bag.

You could even slip some batting inside 

and have a really fun pillow.

I made mine have silly eyes!

That is why this pattern is so perfect.

It is easy to make with such great results and 

the technique for the feathers is unique.

So just because you don't have bon bon yarn, 

doesn't mean you cannot make this fun pattern.

So Go For it!

Fat Striped Bag - Purse Crochet Pattern

Fat Striped Bag Crochet Pattern
 By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

I love big fat bags to take my projects along with me.

I have just re-tested and updated this fun bag pattern.

I released the pattern it about 5 -6 years ago 
and decided it was time for an update.

This Bag is the perfect shape and size to take to the beach, 

pool, picnic, on a trip, or even to the farmers market.  

And if you make it from Red Heart Super Saver yarn--- 

It is washable. So if it gets dirty or full of beach sand, 

or wet at the pool, you can wash it!

This Crochet pattern is for a huge bag!

It measures approximately 15 X 15 inches, 

not including the handles.

It is a big fat bag, and sturdy too. 

Stitches up easy, quick and really stylish as well.

 with right side facing out,

Center and sew on handle to other side of bag band.

Add a few stitch to the where the bag handle began to make sure it is secure.

 tie off and sew on front of Fat Bag.

For How to make the layered Flower see Video above.

The Stripes are fun, but you could make this bag

 in any color or colors and it would still be a fun big bag!
