Talking Up a Stich

CELLPHONES!!!

     I personally am obsessed (haha get it) with cell phone AND cell phone accessories. So of course, when I taught myself to crochet, I had to make the perfect cell phone case. I went onto ravelry.com  typed in cell phone cases and went to work on my own. 

I can not post instructions on how to make other peoples but I can posts links to their sites!



This one I like  how it starts off the cell phone case. I love the rounded edges, button and flower, super cute I made one off of this pattern and put a cute skull iron on. (Pictures later)



This one I like because it's simple and cute can be used for guys or girl. Great pattern!

And THIRD!


I like the long button hole loop and button.


I know... I know.... you're wondering about mine...well I kinda combined all three. HERE IT IS!!!






I started it off like cell phone 1. Except I did it the long way instead because I wanted it to open on the side.
I made a full flap but didn't round out the edges and made a chained button hole like on cell phone 3. I used single tight crochet like on cell phone 2 to give it it that nice professional look. I added two buttons (one on top of the other) and created your basic crochet flower. I sewed the flower onto the chain button hole loop. All of this so when I close the cell phone case the two buttons become the center of the flower. I HEART IT! LOL. 


I'm still considering wether or not to put a wristlet thingy on it...but we'll see.


Ok my luvs!!

Have fun making your own and send me pictures of what you came up with.

To Infinity and Beyond.

Salutations my luvs!!!
Today's project is the infinity scarf.
If you're a seasoned vet crocheter then you know scarfs can be made out of just about any yarn (if not any) with any size crochet hook and can be made in millions of styles.

I, however, am not a seasoned vet. I've been crocheting for about 3 months, almost 4. So all of my scarfs were single crochet(sc), double crochet(dc), half double (hdc), or triple crochet (t) all the way through. I've learned to both start the long way by doing length first and working that way or by starting width way and making it long. Either way works for me, really.

Anyway, I was getting kind of bored with doing a single type of crochet all the way through and I wanted something a little different. So naturally I went to youtube and found this:



She doesn't say what type of yarn she uses but she mentions the size hook.
I got a little confused at first as to which stitch she was working in but after watching a few times I got a hang of it.

You can watch more of her videos at:

So this is how mine turned out:

I used a bulky weight yarn and a 9mm crochet hook.






I absolutely love it!!! Traceybeauty also has a really cool tutorial for a chunky hat. Which is super cute and is going to be my next project.

It's Scoodie TIME!!!!

Hey my Bu's!!!
Sorry I haven't been posting I've actually had alot of orders to fill. (YAY!!!)

Anywho...I've been working on a few things this week. Mainly SCOODIES! Yes, it's a scarf...yes, it's a hoodie...its...a..SCOODIE! LOL
I saw it and it made me think of a friend of mine so I had to make it for her. Here's the link:




There's two parts and they can be found on youtube http://www.youtube.com/user/bobwilson123

I however did not use two strands of yarn. I used one.
  • Wool-Ease from Lion Brand Yarn (3)
  • (I think) It is a five.
  • I used a 9 mm crochet hook
  • And I bought this all at Joanns Fabrics

This chick is super cool. I've learned alot by subscribing to her on youtube. So enjoy!

If you don't want to make your own you can always go to my store http://www.lilmissobsessedshop.com/ and order one, or email me at rosa@lilmissobsessed.com. I'd be more than happy to make one for you.



BTW! This is how mine turned out:




I know you can't see it all too well. But I'll be posting pics with a model later on.

Crochet a day.

My Luvs!!!!

Wow! What a long day. I had an order to put out (which I love to do!) which was all about the Chevron pattern. My friends mom picked out some beautiful colors. Dark Purple, Olive, Tan, and Black. Let me know what you think.




I like the colors and I definitely had a great time making it.

So! What I did today other than this was concentrate on m y crochet so here are 3 tutorials. Hearts, flowers and bows. Then I'll show you how I did. ;)
