4.00mm hook
Cream White Cotton yarn (worsted weight) for the flower
Green Cotton yarn (worsted weight) for the stems and ring

no size, this is like a lariat

no gauge, just use some worsted weight cotton yarn

Crochet Ring:
Wind the yarn 5 times around the left hand's forefinger and the middle finger.
Insert
the hook under the 5 strands in the direction of the palm, yarn over
hook and fasten the strands with a simple crochet stitch.
Work 24 sc in the ring made by the 5 strands.
Sl st to first sc to close ring.
Don't cut the yarn.

Three Stems with Leaves:
1st Stem: Chain 115.
Leaf: Sc
in second chain from hook, 1hdc, 1dc, 1 hdc, 1sc. Turn and work 1sc,
1hdc, 1dc, 1hdc, 1sc in the opposite side of the just worked stitches.
Sl st to first sc to close the leaf. Cut yarn and weave in end.
2nd Stem: Attach yarn on the sc of the ring that is next to the first stem chain. Chain 105.

The Flower:
Bottom Layer:
Chain 3, sl st to make ring.
Chain 3 and work 11 dc in ring. Sl st to third chain of beginning ch3. (12dc)
*4dc in next dc, sc in next dc*. Repeat from * but ending with a sl st on last dc to close round.
Cut yarn and weave in end.
Top layer:
Chain 4, sl st to make ring.
*Chain 3 and sc in ring*, repeat from* four times more. Sl st to close round. (You'll have 5 petals)

Sew the two flower leyers together, the top layer on the bottom one, and sew a nice button on the center.

Finishing:
Sew
the flower between the ring and the three stems chains, leaving a space
in the ring through which you'll pass the three strands to fasten you
necklace around your neck!

Show off your legs with this lovely anklet. It's the perfect complement for sandals! The chain stitch is all you need to know to make it.

Liven up an old pair of hoops with this simple pattern.

With a small amount of #10 crochet thread and a #7 crochet hook, and in a few minutes, you'll have a new look.

#7 steel crochet hook
small amount of #10 cotton crochet thread
pair of hoop earrings

Completed size depends on hoops used and number of rounds completed.

Gauge is not important with this pattern.

Rnd 1: Make a loop around the hoop and sc around to cover the hoop. Crocheting over the loose end for several stitches will eliminate sewing it in later. You can cover the hoop completely, or to your taste.

Rnd 2:. Turn, (do not ch 1) sk first ch, * sc in next ch, sk two ch, sc in next ch, repeat from *. You should do these sc's a little loose to reach the next st.

Rnd 3: Turn, sk first st, * sc in next st, sk 1 st, repeat from * around.

Rnd 4: Turn, sk first st, * sl st in next st, sk next st, repeat around.
At this point, you can fasten off and sew in the loose end, or add another round. The white hoops above were done with 3 rounds and the black hoops were done with 4 rounds. The more rounds you add, the lacier the look becomes.

I've tried to write down a pattern for this necklace once it was done, (I use to work by sudden inspiration!).
I don't know if it's very clear, but you can make any question if you're confused on the pattern.:)
Hope you'll enjoy!

Less than one ball of any colour cotton yarn (worsted weight)
4.00mm hook

You can make more chains for each strand to have it longer.

no gauge

Necklace:
Ch77, sc in second ch from hook and in the next 3ch.
Ch76, sc in the 4th ch at the beg of previous ch loop, and in next 3chs, ch1, turn.
Sc in first sc and in next 3 sc, ch80, sc in the 4 sc at the beg of previous row, ch1, turn.
Sc in first sc and in next 3 sc, ch84, sc in the 4 sc at the beg of previous row, ch3 and sl st on the other side of the same closure piece to make a button hole.
Sew a button on the opposite closure piece of the button hole.
Make a flower of any kind (mines are just improvised!) to embellish the necklace, and sew it on the four chains strands.

Small wire heart, this simple project is a good introduction to crocheting with wire.

coolhockeymom at Crochetville had a wonderful idea for these snowflakes, make festive stitch markers out of them! use either the kidney earwires or the large lobsterclaw clasps attached to the jumpring to put on your crochet stitches!!!

With the fall season in quickly approaching here in Cincinnati, I thought I would share with you my little recipe for my beer bracelet. Or some may call it my wrist warmer. Or others my coffee cozy.

Anyway you slice it, it keeps me happy and my hands either not frozen to my beer bottle or burnt off by my coffee. (PS. makes a great quick gift for your favorite football watchers. )

Ingredients:

-Some scrap amounts (less then 50 yds) of Summit Hill by Kraemer Yarn Shop, 100% Merino Superwash wool, Worsted weight, Machine Washable (most important factor! you'll hate if you have to wash any of these by hand)

-H (5.00mm) hook

-2 (3/4") buttons

-needle to weave in ends.

About 2" (5cm) x 6" (15cm)

20 LTR by 10rows (in pattern sequence) = 4" (10cm)

1. The pattern uses Linked Treble Crochet Stitches (LTR). Not sure what LTR is? check out the linked stitch tutorial on the stitch.

Recipe:

Okay, I'm like Ebenezer Scrooge (I'd rather be like Scrooge McDuck and have a walk-in safe full of gold coins, but I don't). I think the holiday season is naff. I protest it every year by ignoring it completely, scowling at any holiday cards I receive in the mail, and getting grumpier and grumpier as the year comes to a close. This year, however, I decided to embrace my inner cheese-ball and make the corniest, cheesiest, and most naff piece of winter jewelry I could think of. I present to you, 'Ice Princess,' because everyone needs a snowflake necklace, even here in Scotland during the rainy season.

1. J. & P. Coats Royale Metallic Crochet Thread (88% mercerized cotton, 12% metallic; 100 yds [91 m]/Size 10;):  226G Natural/Gold, 1 ball. Yarn distributed by Coats & Clark.  
2. 1.50 mm crochet hook.  (Some say this is a size 7 hook, but I have a Boye USA hook that says it's a size 8. So there.)
3. Tapestry needle
4. Sewing needle
5. Sewing thread
6. Stitch marker
7. Button (I use the 3/8 - 1/2" diameter spares that come with dress shirts)

Finished necklace is about 14" across.

34 sc = 4 inches

Stitch height is not important and will not adversely affect the finished design.

Special stitches: 

sc2tog (decrease) – insert hook in st, yo and draw loop through st (2 loops on hook), yo, insert hook in next st, yo and draw loop through st (3 loops on hook), yo and draw loop through all loops on hook.

Necklace

With MC, ch 115 (counts as 114 + turning ch).  

Row 1:  Starting in second ch from hook, sc in each of next 55 ch, sc2tog over next 2 ch, ch 3, sc2tog over next 2 ch, sc in each ch to end, turn.  (112 sc)

Row 2:  Ch 1, sc in each of first 56 sc, [2 sc, ch 7, 2 sc] all in ch-3 sp, sc in each sc to end, turn.  (116 sc)

Row 3:  Ch 1, sc in each of next 31 sts, *ch 5, sk 3 sts, sc in each of next 2 sts, * rep from * to * 4 more times, sc2tog, work 9 sc into ch-7 sp, sc2tog, **sc in each of next 2 sts, ch 5, sk 3 sts, ** rep from ** to ** 4 more times, sc in each st to end. (93 sc)

Do not fasten off - do not pass go - do not collect 200 dollars: we are making a loop at the end of this row and then finishing up the last row of the necklace.

Button Loop: Ch 12, sl st in first ch to form ring, work 18 sc into ring, sl st in first sc to close round.  

Last row: Starting in last sc of Row 3 (not the loop), sc in each of next 31 sts, *work [3 sc, ch 3, 3 sc] all into next ch-5 sp, sc in each of next 2 sts, * rep from * to * 4 more times, sc2tog, sc in each of next 3 sts, work [sc, ch 5, sc] all in next st, sc in each of next 3 sts, sc2tog, **sc in each of next 2 sts, work [3 sc, ch 3, 3 sc] all into next ch-5 sp, ** rep from ** to ** 4 more times, sc in each st to end, fasten off. (152 sc)

Snowflake Motif

Ch 16, sl st in first ch to form ring.  

Rnd 1:  Work 24 sc into ring, sl st in first sc to close round.  (24 sc)

Rnd 2:  *Ch 9, sk next 3 sts, sc in next st,* rep from * to * 4 more times, ch 9, sk next 3 sts, sl st in sl st of prev. round.  (6 ch-9 spaces)

Rnd 3:  *Work 6 sc into first ch-9 sp, [ch 9, starting in 6th ch from hook, sl st into each of the 4 rem ch sts], work 6 sc into same ch-9 sp, [ch 4, starting in 2nd ch from hook, sl st into each of 3 ch sts], * rep from * to * for each ch-9 sp around, sl st in sl st of prev row, fasten off, weave in end.  

Finishing

Weave in all ends.  

Block pieces (this should make the knitters that read cme happy) by pinning it, spritzing it with water and/or steaming it, pressing it gently with a warm iron, and letting it sit overnight.  Before anyone mentions that this might melt the metallic-bit of the yarn, if you are careful and use a low setting, you should be fine (I was).  

Starching the snowflake is a good way to stiffen it up.  

Sew snowflake to ch-5-sp at top of necklace.  

To fasten the necklace, sew a small button (I find the spares that come with dress shirts work well for this) onto the non-looped end of the necklace and button it into the loop end.
