Little Baby Rainbow Top Hat

I love Top Hats and I love rainbows, and I love babies - so this little project was super fun! 

Here is a Little Baby Rainbow Top Hat, I made it using Thoroughbred Acrylic yarn and a 4mm hook. It is baby sized and would make a great photo prop for a rainbow baby :) 



The pattern from Red Heart is originally made for an adult, and uses double yarn and a larger hook, I however didnt have double up yarn in the colours I wanted to use so I just used single strands and a smaller hook which = a smaller hat. I will definitely make a larger version at a later date. 














Great free pattern from Red Heart, which you can find HERE should you fancy making one for yourself :)

Tie Dye Inspired Headband Ear Warmer

So, here's the thing, I look horrendous in hats - but mostly beanie style hats. After a couple of years of cold ears during winter, I decided to make myself a hat alternative - and here it is :) Can't wait for the weather to turn colder so I can wear it!


Blue and green should never be seen??? I beg to differ....

Ahhhh it feels so good to finish yet another crochet project, this time a granny ripple throw. It's the first time I have done this pattern, and to be honest, I am thrilled with it :) 




Keen on having a go at making one yourself??? you can find a free pattern HERE - you will need to sign into ravelry though to view it :)
