FRIDAY FUN DAY - Cat Headband Crochet Pattern | Posh Pooch Designs

 
IT'S FRIDAY FUN DAY
 Cat Headband Crochet Pattern
 By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs


It's Friday Fun Day and that means it time for
 a fun Crochet Pattern.
I wanted to design a Black cat headband For Halloween. 
I Love how the headband turned out.
But Dark yarns are hard to takes photos and Film video.
 So I designed to Do the Demo in the melon orange 
with black details.
I Love This one also!



The Cat Headband is made to fit just about any size head, because it has ties in the back. So adjusting stitches.
It's stitched using 2 strands of yarn so it a chunky hat that works up quick. A Great last minute Costume.
I am thinking of wearing mine when I had
 out candy this year.

Pumpkin Patch Scrubber Crochet Pattern | Posh Pooch Designs

 Pumpkin Patch Scrubber 
Crochet Pattern  
By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs



I named this Scrubber "The Pumpkin Patch Scrubber" 
because the orange cluster stitches 
against the green background,
 make it look similar to a pumpkin patch ready
 for picking pumpkins.

The Scrub-ology Yarn From Hobby Lobby / Yarn Bee
 is my favorite yarn for making scrubbers.
When it goes on sale, I almost always pick up a few of them.

If you want to make this Scrubber, but do not have
 or want to get this yarn you can still make one.
 You can use 2 strands of cotton yarn, 
medium (4) weight held together. 
It will also make a nice scrubber, as well as,
 a pot holder and hot pad.



The Scrubber is great for cleaning, the Kitchen, 
and the bath. Anywhere you need to clean up a mess.
The "Pumpkins" give this Scrubber a litter extra 
cleaning power.
