FRIDAY FUN DAY! The Pretty In Pink Cowl Crochet Pattern | Posh Pooch Designs

 FRIDAY FUN DAY!

 The Pretty In Pink Cowl 

Crochet Pattern 

By Sara Sach of  Posh Pooch Designs

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

I decided it was time to up date my Pink Cowl

 and film a new video. It was originally written in 2018

 and called The DTR Cowl. I didn't like the name.

I renamed it "The Pretty In Pink Cowl" 

and used The Redheart Pink Ombre

 in the Jazzy colorway .

I Love it so much more, and I hope you do too. 

This cowl can also be worn over your head like a hood.

 This is important for covering the head in cool

 weather, as well as, in air conditioned places.

I added a simple Satin ribbon to the cowl.

I love the cowl stitched up in pink Ombre, 

And the cowl will also look lovely in any colorway. 

The Pattern is quick and easy. It makes a nice gift, 

for any one going through chemo, cancer or an illness,

as well as, anyone you need a last minute gift for.

Don't feel bad if you want to just stitch one up for

 yourself. It's a wonderful accessory for any outfit.

Breast Cancer Awareness Headband And Slouchy Beanie Hat Crochet Pattern | Posh Pooch Designs

 Breast Cancer Awareness Headband And Slouchy Beanie Hat

Crochet Pattern

By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Every year I try to design a New Crochet Pattern

 to bring awareness to Breast Cancer.

I designed This Crochet Pattern in October 2015.

 I decided it was time to retest the crochet pattern, 

 and record a brand new video

I designed the hat in a soft cotton.

 Be sure to use a soft yarn like cotton, or acrylic,

if you are making this for a Chemo patient.

This crochet pattern is a step by step Photo Tutorial

 to help you with the Cable Stitch section of the hat band.

I set the skill at "intermediate" because the cable sections

 can be a little tricky, but it is easy once you practice the 

cable stitch pattern a couple of times.

Other yarns that will work for this pattern
are I Love This Cotton, I Love This yarn and simply soft

And Redheart soft. Any medium (4) weight yarn will

 work for this project.

This Crochet Pattern can also be a headband 

By leaving off the top part of the Slouchy.

I designed this pattern using pink and white for

 Breast Cancer Awareness. It also works for any of the

 other ribbon colors, by changing the colors that

 you make it in.

Cancer Awareness Ribbon With Wings Crochet Pattern | Posh Pooch Designs

 Cancer Awareness Ribbon With Wings Crochet Pattern

By Sara Sach of  Posh Pooch Designs

As a favor for a Dear Friend I pulled out my Breast Cancer Awareness Ribbon, added some Angel Wings and some

 beads and made a Lovely Ornament.

When a tragedy happens, sometime it is hard to know 

what to say. Giving someone we care about one of these awareness pins or ornaments let's them know we care.

We are thinking of them and are here if they need us. 

 It can also be worn as a pin or added to any hat,

 scarf, bag or sweater.

October is Breast Cancer 

Awareness Month

 

But we need to keep aware of all the Cancers that

 people are fighting on a daily basis. I do believe that all

 of us have been touched by Cancer in some way.

I Don't hate many things, But Cancer is one of the things,

 I do hate.

The beauty of this pattern is that is can be used for

 any of the Awareness Ribbons.

Here is a picture I found on line with many  of the colors

 for the awareness ribbons. I am sure there are more.

 If you do not see one you are looking for, look on line.
