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!

Finn Bear – Crochet Pattern Review
While I love all the animals in the Fable Collection and can’t wait to make each of them up, I think the Finn Bear has been my favorite one to make so far! The Finn Bear is a super cute and simple bear that gives off classic cottage-core vibes. The pattern comes with outfits to dress him up or you can leave him as is for a more simplistic look. In addition, Oak and Marlow just released a free modification to turn the Finn Bear into a baby bear, which makes the perfect little teddy bear!
Camille the Mini Caterpillar – Crochet Pattern Review
I love how cute the finished Camille the Caterpillar is! Made with Ella Rae Cuddle yarn, it’s soft and squishy and the perfect gift for a little one on Valentine’s Day! This pattern was extremely well-written and included everything from photo and video tutorials, a bulk-making checklist, a coloring page to design your own caterpillar, and information for adapting the pattern to almost any weight of yarn. I am definitely adding this to my list of go-to patterns for fun gifts and can’t wait to make some for my market prep!
Santa Turtle – Crochet Pattern Review
While checking out some cute crochet Christmas patterns, I fell in love with the Santa Turtle by Happy Turtle Crochet. After making the Sunflower Turtle pattern, I was already familiar with the designer and knew it would be a well-written pattern. This cutie worked up so quickly and is incredibly adorable! My friends and family all agree that everyone needs a Santa Turtle in their lives this holiday season!
Mini Kitty – Crochet Pattern Review
The Mini Kitty pattern by Crafty Kat is a super easy, super quick, no-sew pattern! I love how you can easily make tons of different kitties just by changing up the color of your yarn. While you can add color changes to this pattern, they still look fantastic all in one color, which makes them super easy for market prep! While such a simple pattern, they have so much personality. I’m already working on making a ton more for my upcoming craft shows!
MCM Throw Blanket – Crochet Pattern Review
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”.
