Crab Apple Pun Amigurumi – Crochet Pattern Review

August 4, 2026

Crab Apple Pun Amigurumi Crochet Pattern Review

The Crab Apple Pun Amigurumi pattern is an easy, beginner to intermediate pattern that can work up in an evening and uses simple stitches.

No-Sew Pencil – Crochet Pattern Review

April 8, 2026

Even though I’ve been teaching for 12 years, it’s still hard to pass up a cute teacher-themed item when I see one! When I saw the adorable No-Sew Pencil pattern by Emily of Knots Merry Yarn, I knew I had to get it and make it! As a bonus, Emily is another teacher, so it was awesome to support a fellow teacher when purchasing this pattern from her!

MCM Throw Blanket – Crochet Pattern Review

August 13, 2025

I wanted to add a little color and a pattern that stood out but was calming and chill at the same time. When I scrolled down and spotted the MCM Throw from Knits ‘N Knots, I instantly knew it was my choice. Right away, it just clicked. It’s a timeless motif with the gorgeous half circles, two colors so I could combine a calm neutral with a bold deep tone like I wanted…and of course, Janine is one of my favorite designers. I didn’t even think any further or make a short-list of my choices, that was it. I saw it and clicked “purchase pattern”.
