Scrap Happy Chunky Blanket – Corner To Corner (C2C) By Sara Sach

 Scrap Happy Chunky Blanket 

 Corner To Corner (C2C)

 By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

My Chihuahua Rosie had to go to the Dog Emergency

 room. She hurt her back jumping off the bed and 

also hurt her paw. She had to have a little surgery. 

I took her in her favorite blanket so she would feel more comfortable.  Well, She got nervous and had an 

accident on her blanket. It's Max's favorite, too.

 OOPS!

 We had to throw it out.

Old Favorite Blanket

That's okay Sweet Rosie, I will make you a new one.

So I got into my chunky yarn stash and began making

 them a new blanket. It is made using the C2C technique.

This stitch pattern several names.

 This method has  been called

 the "Crazy Stitch" And the "Diagonal Block Stitch",

as well as, other names. It is is commonly known as the 

"Corner To Corner or C2C Stitch" that we are using today.

New Favorite Blanket

The Blanket is a Square when completed. Although, 

I am making this for my dogs, it is not just for dogs. 

It's perfect for anywhere or for anyone who needs

 a blanket. And so you can make the square as

 large as needed.

It's Max and Rosie Approved!

FRIDAY FUN DAY! Coffee Cup And Can Hand Cozie Crochet Pattern By Sara Sach

FRIDAY FUN DAY! 

Coffee Cup

 And Can Hand Cozie 

Crochet Pattern 

By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

I Have wanted one of these for a long time.

 I saw that they sell them in the stores and thought, 

I can make that!

So I did!

This is such a fun and useful crochet pattern.

I have some Premier Yarn

Chunky Bamboo Anti Pilling Yarn left

 from another project. I used it for this one

 and that worked up perfectly.

Here is the LINK For Premier Yarn

So You can get some also.

I am really loving This Cup Cozie.

It is great for coffee, tea or even a soda can.

Keep Your drinks hot and your hand cozy.

Or keep You drink cold, but not your hand.

Perfect for walking the dogs, and just anytime it's 

cold outside, and want to bring your coffee along.

I Think I'll made another one 

and keep it in the car or in my purse.

What a fun gift also.

Bloom Baby Blanket Crochet Pattern By Sara Sach

 Bloom Baby Blanket 

Crochet Pattern

 By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

I am very excited to release this crochet pattern,

 The Bloom Baby Blanket.

The I used is Premier Bloom Chunky in the

 Daisy Colorway.  The way the yarn colors flow is

 absolutely gorgeous. 

I trimmed the blanket in a solid color, 

with simple shell stitch trim.

It so soft and cozy. The perfect yarn for cuddly

 baby blanket.

The Blanket Measures About 26 X 26 inches.

A wonderful blanket for a newborn to toddler.

And Great For car seats and strollers.

It a great blanket for last minute baby shower gift, 

because it stitches up quickly because it is

 a bulky(5) yarn, and is lovely blanket when completed.
