Bunny Roundup!


https://hodgepodgecrochet.wordpress.com/ Bunny Roundup: 10 FREE PATTERNS!

Who doesn’t love a cute bunny!! They have the cutest noses and adorable ears–not to mention they all remind me of balls of yarn. That right there is reason enough for me to love the little critters. 

I can’t think of anything better to pair with cute bunnies other than FREE cute bunnies!! Below you will find 10 amazing FREE bunny patterns!

Enjoy!

Number ONE on my list is the amazing work done by Cake Sachets crocheted for charity. These panorama Eggs–which were a collaboration with crochet artist TWiNKiE CHAN–are AMAZING!!

Friday Finds!


https://hodgepodgecrochet.wordpress.com/ Friday Finds

As as blogger, crocheter, and HUGE facebook nut, I often run across amazing things that I want to share from my favorite pages across the internet…and then get so busy I kinda drop the blogger ball and never let any of you know what it is that inspires me. So I decided to start a Friday Finds tradition here on HodgePodge!

Let’s get started!!

Inspiration abounds over in Mad Mad Me. Her photos always capture the imagination in colorful bursts of yarny goodness. This week, her Happy Everything Bunting kept me smiling over the possibilities! Can’t you just see this done up for a birthday, and anniversary, or a holiday!

Knitting is also something I’ve always dreamed of being able to do well. (Right now it’s a hot mess whenever I bring out my needles!)  So whenever I come across a cute pattern, I save it! A Stash Addict came though for me in style–as always–and her 100% FREE Autumn Curl Slouch is something I hope to make one day!!

Crochet Creations by Cin got me thinking camo baby beanies this week–which is a much needed break from the blinding yellow minion takeover!!! Her Little Outdoorsman Earflap Hat is SO cute! Just imagine it on the littlest hunter in your family!

Baca Creations never fails to dazzle me with her patterns. So when I came across this gorgeous infinity cowl pattern you can bet I ran as fast as I could over to her Craftsy shop to pick up this 100% FREE pattern!!

Mandy’s Craft Tales is a new favorite haunt of mine and I’m always thrilled to see one of her posts pop up on my wall! Imagine my delight when I saw these beauties! Gorgeous crochet brooches that are perfect for gifts (or even as a treat for me!)
