Posh Pooch Designs

What reminds you of Christmas?

For me it's Candy Canes and Peppermint.

Also Warm Silly Christmas Sweaters.

I decided to Combine them into a fun

 and festive Jar Cozie Crochet Pattern.

Use The Jar for hot cocoa or apple cider, 

or put peppermints 
or candy canes 
inside for a 

Holiday table center
 piece. 

Make one for every guest 

and send one home
 with them as
 a reminder 

of your 
wonderful party.

How About using different colors of yarn and stitch up

 some silly "ugly sweater cozies" 

For your "Ugly Christmas Sweater party".

These also make great candle holders.

But First, Today's Question:
"Can you give us some tips on what not to do when you are crocheting?"

1. Do not eat messy or sticky snacks.

No Cheetoz, greasy chips or melted chocolate.
It gets your work all messy, or your hook all sticky.

  YUCK!

My favorite snack while crocheting is
Coffee and M and M's.
"They melt in your mouth, not your hands".

2. Do not get mad or upset and cry.
It gets your project wet.

But really, if you
 are emotional it can change your tension, or mess up your stitch count, 
which causes more frustration.
Maybe instead, 
 look through patterns books or go on line, until you are calm.





3. Do not choose a pattern that is beyond your skill level. 

If the pattern is too hard for you, you may get upset, and quit. There is nothing wrong with being challenged, but if it's too hard, you just might give up.

There are literally thousands of patterns that are in each skill level. Move up to harder things when you feel are ready.

This is a great Yarn Scrap Buster!
 Takes very little yarn! And makes really pretty ornaments that you can use as gift tags, place makers or decorations.

Triple Thick Pot Holder Crochet Pattern | Posh Pooch Designs

Triple Thick Pot Holder Crochet Pattern 

By Sara Sach of

Posh Pooch Designs

This Crochet Pattern is another Crochet Pattern in My Series

Vintage Patterns With A Modern Twist.

 I received a message asking if I had seen this sort of
 Pot Holder /Hot Pad, or had I made any.

 I was very excited when I saw the message, because I
 knew I had made some in the past.
 I began looking through my bins of projects,
 and found one similar.

Front                                                   Back

It is a really easy pattern to crochet.

It is basically 3 Solid Granny Squares, 
that are  stitched together to form a thick useful design.
The "Modern Twist" I am giving it, is to use some new yarns in fun Variegated colors, along with a solid.

I only recommend Cotton Yarn for this project, 

as it is intended to hold a fresh off the stove, 

or out of the oven, hot pot or casserole dish.
Acrylic yarn is not suggested, as it will burn.

Bunny Hugs Hooded Baby Blanket | Posh Pooch Designs

Bunny Hugs Hooded Baby Blanket 
Crochet Pattern

 By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

I am very excited to release this Crochet Pattern and Video.

Red Heart Yarn sent me this amazing baby yarn, 
and it's been tested for harmful substances,
 so its safe for babies and children.
It's called Bunches Of Hugs.  It's a Worsted weight (4) yarn.
 It's very soft, and durable at the same time.
It has many wonderful colors to choose from.
Both solids and Variegated.

Also, My neighbor is having a baby.  It's a Win, Win.

 I got to design this cute baby blanket and give it to my neighbor!

Here is a close up of the Stitch Pattern.

 Can you see why I called it "Bunny Hugs"?
Although this Stitch pattern looks complicated, It is not.

The Blanket is a little larger then the average baby blanket, 
so they will be able to use it for well into their toddler years.
Works great for Boys and Girls, as well as neutral colors.
