Every Year I try to design a silly hat for Halloween.
Chickens are so popular right now, and so I started 
designing a chicken hat and really loved how it was
 working up.  I wanted it different from other ones I had
 seen and went for it. And The Best part about it, is that its
 easy and quick to Stitch up.


The hat base is basically a box or square hat, turned
 side ways to form the body of the chicken. It's all 
the details that make it so much fun.
It's a little bit silly and a lot of fun.
It's also a warm hat, so if Halloween is cold,
 I got you covered! And chicken hats are not just for
 Halloween, they are for every day!


I picked Super chunky yarn from my yarn stash.
the Bernat Beyond is perfect in thickness and color, 
the bright pink is a super fun change from the red.
But you can use red if you prefer. You can use
 whatever colors you like!

FRIDAY FUN DAY! Spider And Spider Web Crochet Pattern By Sara Sach

FRIDAY FUN DAY!
 Spider And Spider Web Crochet Pattern
 By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs 



It's FRIDAY FUN DAY!

I thought it was a great time to 
up-date my Crochet Spider 
And Spider Web Pattern


I Love This Spider Web Crochet pattern because
 it is completely versatile. 
You can use any yarn weight or fiber and any 
crochet hook size. Be sure to try to match up the crochet
 hook with the yarn weight suggested on the yarn 
label for best results.

To make it larger either go up in your yarn weight, 
or just keep increasing the pattern till it is
 as big as you want. Although, Using a Thicker yarn
 and bigger hook make it stitch up faster.



You can crochet the spider I designed or
Add Some silly or spooky plastic spiders, or do both!
 And you have
  a fun Halloween decoration.
