So I made this hat for an order I had. Wow, it was honestly the hardest item I've made to part with. It is just beautiful and Super soft. I will most definitely be making one for myself for this coming winter.
I was given a picture of this hat or actually one that was similar, however it was knitted and as of now I only do crochet. I haven't yet wondered into the knitting world. I really was not sure I would be able to pull this one off. All I could do was go with what I have learned and try to do my best. Well apparently, I'm pretty good at this. When I started on this journey I never imagined creating these pieces without a pattern. I have come so far in such a short amount of time. The best advise I can give to you all is to do something you absolutely love, your passion for your work will truly take you somewhere you may never have imagined you would go. Love what you do and do what you love......

A little Love

So fun
It's always fun to learn something new. I love a challange and especially I love it when it turns out perfectly. I had an order recently for these two newsboy hats and it was so fun just trying to find the right pattern to follow. I'm still new to crochet so I sometimes go with what I already know but I often find myself searching for something new to try. In this case I wanted something new. Ohh I just fell in love with this stitch. This hat is so soft and the pattern is just beautiful. I got this pattern from Annascrochet.Blogspot.com she had some lovely patterns and she is so easy to follow. Now to start another creation. Goodnight everyone

I Got This

Inspiration
So what gets your creative juices flowing? What gives you inspiration for that next amazing product or item you are going to create? Well truth be told I never know what's next on my agenda to create unless someone orders something. My head is constantly swirling with what I want to work on next or what I would like to try next, but to be honest sometimes I just don't make it to that one thing I want to try. Although, in between orders I will usually try something new as really I am still very new to the crochet world and would like very much to expand my knowledge of stitches and patterns. This Frozen Elsa hat is my newest creation. I love Pintrest for ideas of what I should work on next and well every little girl loves the movie Frozen that came out not to long ago. I pinned a hat to my wall that had long yellow hair in two braids and a purple crown. Well the little girl in my day homes mom saw it and asked if I could make something similar to it but with frozen colors. Well yahh something new for me to try so heck yes I was excited. I started with a white beanie, then the blue crown. It was almost done with just the hair left to go. The longest part of the process was the hair. Measuring each piece and adding it one piece at a time. And believe it or not braiding the hair on this hat was challenging. It was done finally. But wait for me I found it just a little plain, so I decided to add some beautiful snowflakes just to add a little more. See I have a deep desire to make things perfectly and my own. So although the idea of this hat was there, it is now what I pictured in my head. I love crochet, I love that each piece I make even if I use a basic pattern, it becomes my very own creation, the colors I choose, the buttons I choose, a flower, a snow flake or a heart. So let your creative juices flow. Follow your desires and you to will create something amazing.

A little ambitious
Crazy how I decided that my second ever crochet hat would be so ambitious. But, hey that's how I roll. When I jump into something I go all out. When I look back at my early projects its so funny how I notice all the little imperfections and this is really when I notice how much I have grown. I do intend to continue on this journey and I know I still have so very much to learn.
Now I did this awhile ago but I do believe I used a YouTube video posted by Yolanda Soto Lopez. I find her videos so easy to follow and have used her videos numerous times. You can also find all her work at yolandasotolopez.Blogspot.com.
