Making it thru Monday - A Crochet Project Review #56

Here’s to another great “Making it thru Monday” Crochet Review!  Would you like to show off your work of art too?  Just send me a photo of your latest WIP (work in progress) of finished crochet project to elkstudiocrochet@gmail.com.  I’d love to see what you’ve done lately!

Our first project is by Arlette of Tying Knots, and it’s a beauty.  The crochet/button necklace is very creative with several different color buttons added.  It’s a great way to get a conversation going about how it was made, who made it, etc.  Arlette thought it would be perfect for a back to school accessory!

Next up comes from the very talented Debbie!  She is a speed crocheter and constantly adding new projects to her Etsy shop!  She made this adorable set using a strand of pink and purple together to make this lovely baby blanket, booties and hat.

When I saw this elegant maternity sash by Katie’s Crochet Goodies, I fell in love.  Oh, how I wish someone would have made me something like this when I was pregnant with my children, or I could have made one for myself right?  It’s a very clever idea Katie.  So many projects are out there for babies but now mom has something too.  It would be great to make a hat using the same flower pattern for the baby too!

You can never have too many great hat patterns!  Oombawaka Designs has this “I Feel Pretty” hat pattern that will do just what it says. The lovely stitching adds just the perfect touch to your project.  Rhondda also does a great job with those 2 colors too don’t you think?

What a cool idea for multiple uses of this Sunburst Vacation Scarf by Cre8tion Crochet!  She did a great job of picking out the yarn for this project.  It’s so bright and says summertime is here!

I just finished this hat yesterday!  What do you think about the new upcoming FREE crochet hat pattern?  Do you like it?  I’m putting it into testing within the next couple of days, so hopefully it will be ready by the beginning of next week!  While you see the style of the finish on this particular hat, I’m also going to give you an option for a different type of brim too.  One that’s more fitting for a guy because yea, guys wear hats too!
