I found a lovely pattern on Etsy by Make And Do Crew, and decided I wanted to try making it for myself. It’s made by creating two hexagonal pieces and stitching them together in some manner, with extra length added to the sleeves, lower edge, and front sections. It seems like these patterns are quite […]
Cupcake Treat Pouch – Crochet
This crochet pouch, which I crafted around 2017, has undergone a recent pattern update. Initially, I made approximately 20 of these pouches, and filled them with stickers, glow sticks, small toys, trinkets, and a handful of candies for distributing to the young guests at one of my grandchild’s birthday celebrations.

I just love them, and I want them all! LOL I have been asked if I would consider making these on commissioned […]
