The Boom the Firecracker pattern is a super easy, quick make that is perfect for your patriotic decor, summer parties, and crochet markets. You can almost make two of these in under an hour, and they are super bright and happy. The realistic nature of the design, mixed with the plushness of the yarn, makes them versatile, so they can be used as decor or a stuffed toy. I definitely recommend trying out this pattern to help celebrate America’s 250th birthday!

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!

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!
