My sweet god daughter is having her first baby this coming fall and I wanted to crochet her a special blanket for the new little one. She has requested a neutral/woodsy colors/theme so I picked a few really great tans, browns & off whites for her blanket, I'll list them below under the supplies section.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I have a video tutorial for this pattern (currently uploading) on my YouTube channel so if you feel stuck or confused at any part you can check that out. My written pattern is for the heart square and my example blanket is baby size but you can very easily make more squares and have a blanket as big as you wish!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Thanks so much for stopping by, happy crocheting!</div><div style="text-align: center;">Jenni</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/AX7ns233m7A?start=6" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></div><div style="text-align: left;"><u><br /></u></div><div style="text-align: left;"><u><br /></u></div><div style="text-align: left;"><u>Difficulty</u>: Intermediate </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><u>Size</u>: Square: approx. 6.75" x 7"</div><div style="text-align: left;"><span> </span><span> </span> Finished Baby Blanket (with border): approx. 35" x 37" </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><u>Supplies</u>: </div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://amzn.to/3ORpgEZ" target="_blank">Size H (5 mm) Crochet Hook </a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://amzn.to/3zTE7KO" target="_blank">Scissors</a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://amzn.to/3BA4Jll" target="_blank">Darning Needle</a></div><div style="text-align: left;">Worsted Weight Yarn, 2 colors per square, 32 yards of each color</div><div style="text-align: left;"><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> For Baby Blanket Border, 225-250 yards</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span> </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span>Colors used in example: </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span>Red Heart Super Saver: <a href="https://amzn.to/3br0e21" target="_blank">Aran</a>, <a href="https://amzn.to/3oPNJ2S" target="_blank">Buff</a>, <a href="https://amzn.to/3BA6dvV" target="_blank">Cafe</a>, <a href="https://amzn.to/3Q9JnQ8" target="_blank">Coffee</a>, </span><a href="https://amzn.to/3vBbXSt" target="_blank">Aran Fleck</a>, </div><div style="text-align: left;"><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><a href="https://amzn.to/3zum0tB" target="_blank">Buff Fleck</a>, <a href="https://amzn.to/3vBccgl" target="_blank">Oatmeal</a></div><div style="text-align: left;"> Vanna's Choice: <a href="https://amzn.to/3Qg9Aw9" target="_blank">Barley</a>, Off-White<br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span>I Love This Yarn!: Desert Dust</span><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><u>Abbreviations (US terms)</u>: </div><div style="text-align: left;">BLO - Back Loop Only </div><div style="text-align: left;">C1 - Color 1</div><div style="text-align: left;">C2 - Color 2</div><div style="text-align: left;">Ch - Chain</div><div style="text-align: left;">Dc - Double Crochet</div><div style="text-align: left;">Sc - Single Crochet </div><div style="text-align: left;">Ss - Slip Stitch </div><div style="text-align: left;">St - Stitch </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><u>Important Notes</u>: </div><div style="text-align: left;">-Color changing and carrying the yarn is used for this pattern, if you haven't worked a pattern with color changing/carrying I suggest you check out my tutorial above, skip to 00:05:15 timestamp.</div><div style="text-align: left;">-Gauge is not important for this pattern unless you want the exact same size as I have listed above, in that case, my gauge is: 5 sc x 4 rows = 1" </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><u>Heart Square </u></span></div><div style="text-align: center;">(make 25 for baby blanket size)</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Starting with C1:</div><div style="text-align: left;"><b>Row 1</b>: Ch 30, sc in 2nd ch from hook and in each remaining ch across.

It's been quite a while since I have posted a new pattern here on the blog, during the pandemic I was so busy being a teacher to my youngest son it didn't leave much free time. I did find a little bit of time here and there to still crochet (of course) so I have lots to get caught up on here! I also have recently been getting a few crochet tutorials up on my YouTube channel, some that I've shared here and some that I haven't so if you'd like to, you can check out my channel here: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/c/byjennidesigns/" target="_blank">By Jenni Designs on YouTube!</a></p><p style="text-align: center;">Anyways, I will go ahead and get on with the pattern!

You can find the scrubby pattern here: <a href="https://byjennidesigns.blogspot.com/2021/01/scrubbyheart.html" target="_blank">Scrubby Heart</a>. The patterns are very similar but for this pattern you will be crocheting 2 hearts and then you will hold them together and single crochet around the edge to make them one. I tried a couple different yarns for this pattern when testing and I suggest a softer cotton yarn like I love this Cotton from Hobby Lobby or the Mainstays 100% Cotton Yarn from Walmart. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Thanks so much for stopping by!</div><div style="text-align: center;">-Jenni</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><u>Skill Level</u>: Easy<br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><u>Size</u>: 7.5" x 7.5"</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /><div><u>Supplies</u>:</div><div><a href="https://amzn.to/3oA9qBF" target="_blank">Size G (4.0mm) Crochet Hook</a></div></div><div style="text-align: left;">Worsted Weight 100% Cotton Yarn</div><div style="text-align: left;"><span> </span><span> </span><span> Main color, 120-130 yards</span><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span><span> </span><span> </span><span> Edge color, 10-15 yards</span><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://amzn.to/3pOTVY8" target="_blank">Darning Needle</a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://amzn.to/3aruOE5" target="_blank">Scissors</a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://amzn.to/39FPo4h" target="_blank">Stitch Marker</a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><u>Abbreviations</u>:<br />Ch - Chain</div><div style="text-align: left;">Hdc - Half Double Crochet</div><div style="text-align: left;">Hdc2tog - Half Double Crochet 2 Together</div><div style="text-align: left;">Sc - Single Crochet</div><div style="text-align: left;">Ss - Slip Stitch</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><u>Important Note</u>:</div><div style="text-align: left;">-Chains do not count as a stitch.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><u>Pattern</u>:<br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Using main color:</div><div style="text-align: left;"><b>Row 1</b>: Ch 2, hdc in 2nd ch from hook.

Lay out a long piece of yarn (12-18"). Carefully slip the yarn off of your hand and lay on top of the long piece of yarn, tie a knot twice. Using your tapestry needle; sew the long yarn ends in and out of the pom pom through the center a few times. Add a dab or two of fabric glue to the center of you would like (Elmer's school glue works well too). Let dry. Cut through all your loops and trim up your pom-pom so it's nice and even.</div></div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhh2n5Vq8-zkihMCYsm2aTIegLzX_xNNIblOOkP37EEaO6ux5r092lAhhbX0d6RDaoM-DYLZWpRbzpyB4m1sPq89lANFXFFY9T5z2FIUtQzqQ6sGqiIKZk9RIYuxrCtjzRrzA2YYeE0HHx1/s1024/pompom1.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="493" data-original-width="1024" height="193" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhh2n5Vq8-zkihMCYsm2aTIegLzX_xNNIblOOkP37EEaO6ux5r092lAhhbX0d6RDaoM-DYLZWpRbzpyB4m1sPq89lANFXFFY9T5z2FIUtQzqQ6sGqiIKZk9RIYuxrCtjzRrzA2YYeE0HHx1/w400-h193/pompom1.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuSgTIgkFG8tgoV_lb3ytWwTRI2QJvxwMUovVEFWHN-NtBEsPKyF_sbzv_hvb2jQcB4uzS_ULmwiMsxNKhqxMTLA68CwO5EmLw_KKyYEKnqlLHZrJRq5g4KwXXF8Cp6OVAjefAPAHu0Bpn/s1024/pom2.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="493" data-original-width="1024" height="193" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuSgTIgkFG8tgoV_lb3ytWwTRI2QJvxwMUovVEFWHN-NtBEsPKyF_sbzv_hvb2jQcB4uzS_ULmwiMsxNKhqxMTLA68CwO5EmLw_KKyYEKnqlLHZrJRq5g4KwXXF8Cp6OVAjefAPAHu0Bpn/w400-h193/pom2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>Jenni Catavuhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08771744083630972549noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2123347199338842307.post-87302375535784245882019-09-17T09:37:00.008-05:002021-04-10T20:19:53.786-05:00Free Crochet Pattern: The Loopy Scrunchie<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Hello & welcome!<br />
Today I am sharing my basic scrunchie pattern with you. This pattern has two versions (as shown above). The first uses Hdc only and the 2nd is a tad wider and uses Hdc for the first row and Dc for the 2nd row, both are very easy & quick to work up!<br />
<br />Thanks so much for stopping by!</div><div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hello and welcome to the blog. I have a very fun, quick & easy pattern to share with you today!<br />
<br />
It's starting to warm up here in Wisconsin and my family loves a good outdoor game and if said game includes water it's a win, win! These balloons are much easier than filling tiny latex balloons, trying to tie them without cutting off the circulation to your fingers & lets not forget the clean up of tiny pieces of balloon all over the yard. The bonus of being able to reuse these balloons is a big deal for me!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have been working with <a href="https://amzn.to/2X6sqhy" target="_blank">Bernat Blanket Yarn</a> a lot lately and was able to use up all my scraps for these balloons, I also gave Bernat's <a href="https://amzn.to/2KHUj8O" target="_blank">Pipsqueak Yarn</a> a try with this pattern using a double strand and the results were good but I do prefer the blanket yarn. I wanted to make sure my balloons would hold a good amount of water so I made little pom-poms and stuffed one inside of each balloon. I first tried stuffing some extra yarn pieces inside of some balloons and after being used the yarn started popping out through the stitches. Not a big deal, you can just push it back into the balloon but the pom-poms help keep the yarn gathered together inside better.</div>

-Joins are made with a slip stitch.<br />
-This pattern uses a magic circle, if you don't know how to make one you can learn with this quick video tutorial: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=64O9WVJucFA" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=64O9WVJucFA </a><br />

First you need to make your pom-pom's that are used for stuffing the balloons. You need one pom per balloon. I've put together easy steps for you to follow below:<br />
<br />

<b><span style="font-size: large;">Balloons</span></b><br />
*For the stripe balloons I worked my 2nd color in row 4.<br />
<br />
<b>Row 1</b>: Magic circle, ch 1, 6 hdc in circle. Join. (6)<br />
<br />
*Pull circle tight & sew in end.<br />

*Insert one pom-pom at this time.<b><br /></b><div><b>Row 6</b>: Ch 1, hdc, *hdc2tog.* Repeat *to* 3 more times. Join. (5)<b><br /></b>
<b>Row 7</b>: Ch 1, 2 hdc in each. Join. (10)<br />
<br />
Fasten off leaving about a 12" end, using your tapestry needle sew the balloon shut between rows 6 & 7. Sew in the remaining end.<br />
<br />
<b>Using the Balloons</b>:<br />
Now that you've crocheted up your group of balloons, you're ready to go and get this water balloon fight started! Using your balloons is easy, simply place them in a bucket (a bucket per person is helpful) and fill with water! That's it, let the battle begin! I hope your family enjoys these water balloons as much as mine does, I'd love to see your photos, you can either upload them to Ravelry as a project, share on the <a href="http://www.facebook.com/byjennidesigns" target="_blank">By Jenni Designs</a> Facebook page or tag @byjennidesigns on Instagram. <br />

<b>Cleaning the Balloons</b>:<br />
After use you can choose to just rinse your balloons well, squeeze out the excess water and lay in the sun to dry or if they've gotten muddy during play I suggest hand washing in your kitchen sink with laundry soap, rinse, squeeze out excess water and then lay out to dry.</div></div></div>Jenni Catavuhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08771744083630972549noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2123347199338842307.post-35948924661130698572019-03-29T12:41:00.000-05:002019-06-12T11:41:30.523-05:00Free Crochet Pattern: XL Pizza Blanket<div style="text-align: center;">

I've received multiple messages asking for a larger version of the <a href="http://byjennidesigns.blogspot.com/2017/03/pizzathrowblanket.html" target="_blank">Chunky Pizza Throw Blanket</a> so here it finally is for you! This version has only been tested with Bernat Blanket Yarn, I love this yarn because it's extremely soft, works up quickly and is very durable (I've put it through the washer & dryer multiples times as it's still beautiful)!</div>

Fasten off.<br />
<br />
Your stitch marker will no longer be needed.<br />
<br />
Switch to Red & Join in the sl st sp.<br />
<b>Row 40</b>: <u>In BLO</u>: Ch 1, dc in 19. *2 dc in next, dc in 38.* Repeat *to* until you have 20 sp left. 2 dc in next, dc in 19. Join. (400)<br />
<br />
Switch to Sand & join in any sp.<br />
<b>Row 41</b>: <u>In BLO</u>: Ch 1, 2 dc, dc in 39. *2 dc in next, dc in 39.* Repeat *to* around. Join. (410)<br />
<b>Row 42</b>: Ch 1, dc in 20. *2 dc in next, dc in 40.* Repeat *to* until you have 21 sp left. 2 dc in next, dc in 20. Join. (420)<br />

<br />
For the final row of the crust you need to loosely work (this is important) the crab stitch around the entire edge. To do so; Ch 1, sc in first sp to the right. Sc in next sp to the right and in each around.<br />
<br />
Fasten off and sew in all ends.<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Pepperoni </b></span><br />
<br />
With Red:<br />
<b>Row 1</b>: Magic circle, ch 1, 9 hdc in circle. Join. (9)<br />
<b>Row 2</b>: Ch 1, 2 hdc in same and in each sp around. Join. (18)<br />
<b>Row 3</b>: Ch 1, 2 hdc in same, hdc in next. *2 hdc in next, hdc in next.* Repeat *to* around. Join. (27)<br />
Fasten off leaving a long end for sewing later.<br />
<br />
When you've finished working up your desired amount of pepperoni's sew them onto the blanket but be careful to only use the loops on the top of the stitches so that your red yarn doesn't show through on the other side.<br />

<br />
This men's cowl came about as an idea from my father. He owns a bait shop and was wanting a few cowl type scarves to have in his shop for the ice fishermen in the winter, the request was for something simple with some stretch to ensure a fitted and warm neck warmer. He was pleased with the outcome and we decided to make a less bulky version also so I've included both the worsted weight and bulky weight versions for you. <br />

<br />
I've been wanting an excuse to make a Unicorn hat for myself and I finally have one, Halloween! This pattern works up pretty quick thanks to the use of bulky yarn! Please check your gauge, I've noticed many people having sizing problems with my hat patterns because they are not checking the gauge listed within the pattern. I do crochet tightly so chances are you will need to change your tension or switch to a lower hook size to get gauge.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Step 1</b>: </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Select your desired faux fur!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Step 2</b>: </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With the fur side down, lay your fur on a flat surface. This is best done outside depending on the fur your chose, it can get pretty messy.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Using the CD as a guide, mark 8 inches horizontally and vertically. </div>

<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b> <u>Step 3</u>: </b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Using the lines you marked, join them and draw a circle. It does not need to be a perfect circle. As you can see, mine isn't!</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFZMhHoFYG-6VlqNMwxaiQVpjN0j44ZIdLgiWL-lzDKWJRxvaj3zr9MdFNyOLJM4-RvTRGigoSNcbNTOIK1clq9PQHrBm6iU0jw6FRYAXnqLgGiMyTmDPrf8C_YInwasRnP8luiv9LN_CC/s1600/fauxfurpom4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="900" data-original-width="1600" height="180" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFZMhHoFYG-6VlqNMwxaiQVpjN0j44ZIdLgiWL-lzDKWJRxvaj3zr9MdFNyOLJM4-RvTRGigoSNcbNTOIK1clq9PQHrBm6iU0jw6FRYAXnqLgGiMyTmDPrf8C_YInwasRnP8luiv9LN_CC/s320/fauxfurpom4.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Step 4:</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Cut the circle out. I found the X-acto knife works best for this, you will lose less fur. Set aside your fur scraps. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<u><b>Step 5:</b></u></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With your tapestry needle and yarn use the basting stitch to work around the entire circle.</div>

<b><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="font-size: medium;"><u>Finishing</u></span></b><br />
<br />
When you have finished all your desired toppings, sew them to the cheese/sauce piece.<br />
Sew in ends.<br />
<br />
Next, you need to crochet together the crust & the cheese/sauce. To do so, hold the Crust & the Cheese/Sauce with the wrong sides facing each other.<br />
<br />
Using Tan:<br />
<br />
With the cheese/sauce facing you, join yarn with a sl st in any space. Keep in mind, your pot holder hanger will be worked in this space at the end of the row.<br />
<br />
Make sure you are working through all 4 loops as you go.<br />
<br />
Ch 1, sc in same and in each sp around. Join with sl st. Turn so the crust side is facing you. [Ch 8, sl st to the open sp to the left], Ch 1, turn, work 14 sc over the ch, sl st into the same sp as the ch 8.<br />
<br />
Fasten off and sew in ends, I like to use one of the ends to help make sure the loop isn't too floppy by sewing through the 1st & 14th stitches in the loop and then I sew the end up into the loop.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
I've been working on this one for some time now, my youngest son requested a pizza blanket months ago and I finally have it finished! This pattern is worked in the round to avoid a visible seam but if you would like to join at the end of each row you may do that instead. For this project you'll need to hold together 2 strands of worsted weight yarn, the pattern has only been tested in this way but you are free to give a Bulky 6 yarn a try too! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I would love to see your finished blankets! If you want to share a photo feel free to share on my facebook here: <a href="http://facebook.com/byjennidesigns" target="_blank">facebook.com/byjennidesigns</a>, tag me on IG @byjennidesigns or add as a project on Ravelry here: <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/chunky-pizza-throw-blanket" target="_blank">Pizza Throw</a></div>

As a guide my wrists measure 6" (left) & 6.25" (right) and the measurement taken at the top of my hand and around the knuckles is 7.5" (left) 7.75" (right). These gloves have some stretch and will definitely fit a hand/wrist a little larger. I suggest wrapping the foundation chain around your wrist to help determine if these will work for you.<br />

Hello all! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am pretty excited to share this pattern, it may look familiar as it's a re-make of my Textured Infinity Scarf. I noticed the old pattern tends to curl a little because of how the ribbing is worked and I've found a way to fix that issue! I also changed up the texture a little & I hope this new pattern is as well liked as the previous pattern. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
When working along the sides work 1 sc into the side of each hdc row. Don't work your sc's too tightly or your bread may bunch a little (feel free to switch to a hook size up for this part if you can't work the sc's loosely). You should end with 21 sc along the two sides of bread, 39 sc along the top & 27 sc along the bottom.<br />
<br />
Join, fasten off and sew in ends.<br />

<br />

<br />
Sew butter onto one slice of bread.<br />
<br />
After you have sewn your butter on, hold the two bread slices together with the butter side facing you. Join your dark brown yarn in any space and slip stitch all the way around, you will need to ch 1 at each corner.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: large;">Loop</span></b><br />

To add a loop to your pot holder first decide where you would like the loop then turn the pot holder over and join in your chosen sp on the back of the pot holder.<br />
<br />
Work the following into the sp you joined in: [Ch 8, sl st]. Ch 1, turn, work 14 sc over the ch, sl st into the same sp as the ch 8.<br />
