I have only recently begun to crochet, but I love it because it calms me, gives my fidgety fingers something to do while watching tv or waiting in line to pick up the kids at school. I am still a newbie, sticking to simple patterns, like hats, scarves & grannie squares. I am lucky enough to have an auntie who is patient enough to sit and teach me the basics, and whenever I am ready she teaches me new stitches. It’s been a fun learning process, and I’m happy to be creating beautiful things.
Last year I discovered Tara’s Mamachee Shop on Etsy. She has lovely crochet patterns – even some very basic patterns for rookies like myself. Her shop is where I found the pattern for the adorable hat I made for Henry last week. And Tara has many other patterns that I am itching to try once I get a little more practice in.
This week I have a special giveaway for my fans who like to crochet. Or, if you do not crochet, perhaps this would make a good gift for someone you know for the holidays!

One lucky winner will receive THREE free crochet patterns from Mamachee’s Etsy shop! She has so many cool things to choose from, you will have fun checking out all of the patterns she has created with love.
