????????  Today's Question  ??????

Does Ch1 Count as a stitch

Most of the time the ch1 does not count as a stitch,

 but there are times that it will. Always do what the 

directions on the Crochet Pattern tell you to do or

 you will get the stitch count off.

 What's A Turning Chain

When stitching in Rows, the Ch1 usually does

 not count as a st. It's called a turning ch, 

it's an extra chain so your project lays smoothly.

Lady's Shopping Bag Crochet A Long | Posh Pooch Designs

 Lady's Shopping Bag Crochet A Long

Crochet Pattern

By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

The Ladies Tote Bag was one of the first Bag Crochet

 Pattern designs I actually wrote up. It was originally made 

out of Red Heart Super Saver yarn and  Scrap yarns.

But I really love the striping yarns for this bag.

It is the perfect bag for shopping, and produce at the

 Farmer's Market. It also makes a great book bag, Ipad bag, 

project bag, tote bag, and overnight bag.

Please, Remember To Refresh Your page

 after each step 

so you will not miss the video, 

updates and new pics.

It can be stitched up in cotton, Acrylic and blends, 

 and just about any any med (4) weight yarns.

Whatever fiber is your preference, it will work.

I like to make them in cotton yarn for produce and shopping.

 I like acrylic yarn for books, Yarn and other items.

This bag has so many uses.

Whimsical Cape Shawl Crochet Pattern | Posh Pooch Designs

                                        Whimsical Cape Shawl

Crochet Pattern

By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

The Whimsical Cape Shawl is a wonderful gift for

 Mother's Day, or Any day.

The design is a open style with just enough thickness 

to add a little warmth without being to heavy.

 A perfect addition to a morning, and evening outfit, 

or when there is a slight chill in the air.

It's a Cape, A Shawl, and a Poncho all in one.

This Crochet Pattern works up quickly because I designed

 it using A bulky (5) yarn and a 9.00 mm Crochet Hook.

We have Updated The Crochet Pattern to Include

 Sizes XS - 3 X. 

Need a last minute gift, this will work up in an evening.

But once you make it, you will want to keep it for yourself.

So you better make two.
