1ST Blog *GIVEAWAY*

Hey there,
 I believe I had said somewhere in this blog ;) that I would do a blog Giveaway once I hit 50 people. Well I have had 52 followers for months now! I'm slacking!
 So I just started back up into crocheting again. I stopped the day before Kyra was born. Wow.. Took me 4 months to get back into it. I just (Almost) finished yet again another scarf! "What?!" I love making them and there super easy!
 Anyways. So for the giveaway.. (Duh) I will be making a scarf for a special person (That Random.Org picks )
 I will make the scarf once the winner emails me and lets me know what color they would like- You can choose 2 colors for the scarf.
 Also, Once you receive your scarf in the mail I will let you do a "Guest Post" On my blog! 
 All you have to do is leave as many comments as u want.. And I'm not going to force you to follow me! That's your choice. You can leave a comment for liking or following me on my other sites (for instance) -Facebook -Instagram -Pinterest!

Black and Lime Green Scarf.

I finished yet another scarf before little Kyra has arrived. I for sure thought that I wouldn't be able to finish this before she was here :( 
 I have 4 days till my Due Date.. My fav number is 4 .. so maybe she will be born today. But then My Due Date is Feb 4th.. so that would be better :)
I started this scarf out with Triple Crochet, and started on the second row and I didn't like it. So I did the middle of the scarf Single Crochet and just both the outsides of the scarf are Triple Crochet.

Made a scarf ( Becasue I'm bored and Impatient )

So I am twitling my fingers I guess is a way you could put my being impatient. So I tried to take my mind off of Kyra by making a scarf. Well.. the scarf is done and still no baby. SIGH.......I'm okay .. really I am .. NOT!
 Here are my pic's !

Baby Girl Headband and Bow

So I was going threw blogs the other day and I found a really easy pattern for a headband! And I have never in my life followed any kind of a pattern whatsoever! So I was pretty excited to actually finish this one!! I did have to look up some of the different stitches that were on this pattern. But I will add them all on here so you can see just what I did to make this! A CRAFTY COOK is where I found this pattern. As you can see it sounds really easy! I used a bigger size hook just to be able to see what I was doing.
Here are the video's and pages that I used for the Crochet Stitches I didn't know how to do. ~FOUNDATION SINGLE CROCHET STITCH~ , ~REVERSE SINGLE CROCHET~, ~SLIP STITCH~,  ~FASTEN OFF AND WEAVE IN ENDS~ .
So here are a couple snap shots of the headband that I made.



FINISHED PRODUCT! ... Besides not being connected.
Now for the Cute, Simple Bow !
 I found this while I was searching for video's on how to finish off this headband. I fell in love ! I can't believe I did this! I'm so excited! I've never really branched out before, and When I do ... I normally give up! I'm so glad I didn't! The Video I found is ~BOW TUTORIAL~ <-----Here ! I hope you can figure it out! She was a great instructor and I hope you find this as simple as I did! Oh and also, I didn't know how to do a Tripple Crochet Stitch so here also is the video I found ~TRIPLE CROCHET STITCH~
Here are my snapshots of the bow!












Here is the bow attached to the headband! I just sewed it by hand together. I accidentally cut my string on the bow and the headband to small so I had to tie a piece of yarn to the little yarn hanging off the headband. And then weaved it on!





Ben just had to get into the picture! He asked me if when Kyra was born if I was going to be dressing her up with all the things I make.. I said ... DUH!! HAHA!
 I hope you enjoyed my post! I am so excited that I finished this project! Hope you make one too :)

Double Crochet Scarf

 So this was my first time I made something with Double Crochet! I love it. It adds more design. And makes the project super fast. This scarf only took me about 3 hours to make ! And I of course had tons of fun while making it... Besides the back pain I get ALL THE TIME !
