Flower Pot Cozy Crochet Pattern

By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

I needed to stitch up some new Flower pot cozies, 

as mine are quite worn out.

I decided it was time to retest and update my

 Crochet Pattern and film a new Video Tutorial.

I Chose Some really bright cotton yarn.

Crafter's Secret Cotton From Hobby Lobby.

 The colorway is called Sprinkles.

I really love it.

I wanted some solid colors as well.

I really prefer a stiffer cotton for the pot cozies, 

or covers, so they will hold up well.

some other great yarns for this is the 

Peaches and Cream,

 and Sugar and Cream cotton yarns. 

Any Medium (4) Cotton will work just fine.

Grow Some Greens Easily

If you want to grow some greens, but do not 

have a yard, you can grow them in a pot. 

All You need is a container or 2, 

Some soil and And Some Seeds. 

And Some Water.

What Container?

 A used Coffee container, ice cream tub,

 Cool whip bowl or similar container. 

Wash and rinse the container and the lid. 

Poke a few hole in the bottom and fill with soil.

Plant An Assortment Of Seeds.

Lettuce, Kale, Arugula, and Spinach.

I grab a few seeds from each package and place

 them in the soil.

Use the lid under the container.

No Garden Need.

Set in sunny spot in the window, or on a patio.

You do not need a garden to grow wonderful greens.

Trim them when they are young and you will have

 lots of greens.

Christmas Gnome TP Cover Crochet Pattern | Posh Pooch Designs

 Christmas Gnome TP Cover 

Crochet Pattern

 By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

This is just the cutest thing!

How Cute will he be sitting in Your 

Christmas decorated Bathroom?

Such a Holly Jolly Fellow!

I designed this Silly Gnome with I Love This Yarn sparkle/

 metallic yarns from Hobby Lobby. I chose Traditional

 Christmas colors of Red, Green and White. But, you

 use any colors to make your Holiday decorations.

Any med (4) yarn will work, and if you don't have 

the sparkle yarn, regular if just fine.

I just wanted it to have some pizzazz!

One thing I discovered is that the Tp of a few years

 ago is taller than the TP I buy now. So depending on 

what brand you buy you may need adjust the height

 of you TP Christmas Gnome cover.
