3D Heart Granny Square Baby Blanket – Free Crochet Pattern

March 31, 2016 1 Comment

Hi guys, It’s been a long time since I’ve been gone. I had so much to do with my work and can’t find time to finish my crochet projects. I had a long break last holy week and I was able to finish the video tutorial and written pattern. I have made this 3d heart granny square baby blanket for my 5 month pregnant belly. Yes I’m expecting my second baby and I really think it’s a girl. I’ve had my  ultrasound exam but the doctor can’t tell its gender because its umbilical cord is blocking it. I just hope it’s a girl. I’m just so excited to have a new baby in the family. I can’t wait to see my baby with this blanket. This is my first crochet blanket pattern and I’m glad that it turned out great. I hope you liked it too. What do you think about my 3d heart granny square baby blanket? Please tell me in the comments section below.

I’m also currently  making a bunny hat for her. She’s my new model. LOL.

Heart Stitch Marker

March 15, 2014 Leave a Comment
I just made a cute heart stitch marker for my crochet projects. I really love crochet and cross stitch so  I thought of combining them in this project. You can also use this as a cellphone charm or a keychain or whatever you want it to. This is so easy to make so make yours too…
Supplies Needed:
 
Aida Cloth
Lace Yarn
1.3 mm steel hook
yarn cutter
cross stitch needle
lobster clasp
 
 
Here’s the pattern for the heart. 

 

Make 2

 

Cut them as shown on the picture using a yarn cutter.

 

Join the two heart pieces and sew them together as shown here
Using a red yarn, Insert your hook to the white yarn that we used to sew the hearts together. (Chain 6, Insert hook into the 4th chain,yarn over,pull,
slip stitch into the next white yarn)* repeat 9 times. Slip stitch, fasten off. Weave ends.
 
Do the same thing on the other side of the heart. Insert a red yarn in the upper central part of the heart to the lobster clasp. Tie it up and you’re done.

 

By the way, guess what’s my next post. I’m done making the body, I just have to make the parts. Yeah right, I think you already know. It’s Odus again!, just a bigger one. I wanted to make a much more detailed version of him. I hope I can really pull this off. I’m so excited to share this project with you.
