Holy Hooking Pattern, Batman!

Granted, its my first crochet pattern I've ever written but given my perfectionist personality I really wanted to make sure that this is nothing less than stellar!
Ive been hooking for the last 10 years or so (grandma turning in her grave) crocheting is the proper word, and Id like to say that I'm pretty well versed in my pattern reading skill (you always have youtube to fall back on) but when it came time to actually write...its not what you think...its more!
Materials, skill, instructions, notes, details, details, details. Pictures are a bonus and thats exactly what you want to have in your pattern to make it more desirable for pattern buyers to return! But then you have to actually make your project from start to finish to illustrate how its all pieced together along the way!!! Phew!!!

Now that its all said and done...and pdf'ed and uploaded to Etsy shop (Caute Crafty) I am totally stoked and feel quite accomplished I actually want to start my next pattern. Hmmm...Maybe I should wait for the hair I pulled out to grow back in!!!

If you're interested in the ever so chic Ca-ute Hugs pattern, you can visit our shop by clicking here.

Happy hooking!!!
(Love u nana!)

Ca-ute Bunny

Especially with a daughter...bunnies and crochet amigurumi goodies are just the ca-utest things and I really can't make them fast enough for her to play with. Though, this lil bunny is in our Etsy shop for sale...and will be joined by many more friends coming soon.   If you're itching to make your own there are great patterns on Pinterest & Ravelry that you can totally check out.  I have a great Pinterest crochet board if you're looking for inspiration.

St. Patty Hat

How can you not get your parade on without this awesome hat!?!?!  It'll keep you nice and cozy especially with the Jersey weather we've been having lately...since spring has not quite sprung yet!!
