Snowflake Bucket Tote – CW Winter 2024

December 12, 2024 By

Our latest design, the Snowflake Bucket Tote, is featured in Crochet World 2024 Winter issue. This crochet bag is a great way to store your current crochet project. The crochet pattern features a cinch-closed lining which will keep your project easily accessible yet off limits to tiny tots and fur babies.

The Snowflake Bucket Tote is stitched in corded yarn which offers both stability and flexibility. However, heavy purse handles can still weigh the project down. If more structure is needed to help the project bag maintain its bucket shape, add heavy stabilizer or plastic canvas between the crocheted bag and the lining.

The Snowflake Bucket Tote features a snowflake applique which is sewn to the front of the bag. Add it or not. Stitch up a different applique and use this tote all year long. This crochet bag design would make an awesome beach tote, too.

Lion Brand Yarn: Let’s Get Cozy Lazy Days

As mentioned, Lion Brand Yarn Let’s Get Cozy Lazy Days yarn is a tubular, chainette style yarn. It looks like corded yarn but it’s not stiff like macrame yarns. It’s soft and drapey yet strong and durable…perfect for making bags. Last I checked, it comes in 14 colors. If you haven’t crocheted or knitted with it, I highly recommend it.

Granny Square Turkey Joins the Flock

November 7, 2024 By

Birds of a Feather is wildly popular…and now the granny square chicken pattern includes a variation for the Turkey. Gobble, Gobble! Not only does the pattern include the crochet turkey, but a mini crochet pumpkin to go with it.

The crochet turkey stuffed animal has an iconic blue head and a snood along the beak. This amigurumi turkey also has more tail feathers than some of the other birds in the crochet chicken pattern.

The mini pumpkin is quick to make. We used mini bobbles every other row to give it a gourd like bumpy rib.

Both the turkey and pumpkin are crocheted with medium worsted weight yarn. They are pictured above in Lion Brand Heartland Yarn.

The turkey and pumpkin are available in our Birds of a Feather crochet pattern on Etsy.

These videos are shorts…quick videos on how to crochet various aspects of the granny square chicken including beak, eyes, tail, wattle, snood as well as changing colors mid row and joining squares.

Gobble, Gobble!

Birds of a Feather Granny Square Chicken Pattern

The granny square chicken pattern includes 9 different birds. Each made with only 2 granny squares. Changing the color mid round is what makes each bird unique. The Birds of a Feather pattern includes:

  • Chicken
  • Turkey
  • Blue Jay
  • Cardinal
  • Robin
  • House Finch
  • Gold Finch
  • Parakeet
  • Bald Eagle

The turkey joined the flock on 11/7/24. If you’ve purchased the pattern prior to that date and need the revised version with turkey, let us know via Etsy where you purchased the pattern.

Positive Potato’s Cousin: Sassy Spud with 10 Hats

November 1, 2024 By

Positive Potato has a cousin and her name is Sassy Spud. She has lots of hats for various special occasions and several hats just for fun. All total, Sassy Spud has 10 hats and 75+ printable signs. You can attach a permanent sign or create one with elastic so you can change out her greeting.

As an added bonus, there are instructions for putting walking feet on Sassy Spud.

Sassy Spud is quick and easy to make. She measures only 2.75” tall x 1.75” wide x 1.5” deep without a hat. She definitely qualifies as amigurumi…which basically means crochet toy. We designed her with basic stiches and basic techniques. There will be some increases by working 2 single crochet in the same stitch and decreases by single crocheting 2 together. On occasion there will be working in front loop only. The dragon tail has a double crochet cluster. But for the most part, basic crochet skills are all you need to make the crochet potato and hats.

The Sassy Spud Crochet Pattern PDF Download

There are 10 hats for Sassy Spud. And they are all interchangeable. You could sew them on permanently, but they are designed to be changed out. The crochet hats for Sassy Spud include:

  • Birthday Cap
  • Christmas Santa Cap
  • Halloween Witch Hat
  • Easter Bunny Spring Bonnet
  • Pirate / Tricorn Hat
  • Valentine Pom Pom Beanie with Heart
  • Unicorn Beanie
  • Dragon Beanie
  • Straw Hat with Bow
  • Pom Pom Beanie

The pattern for Sassy Spud and her 10 crochet hats are available in our Etsy Shop.

Materials Needed to Make Sassy Spud the Crochet Potato

The materials needed to make Positive Potato’s cousin, Sassy Spud, are pretty minimal: yarn, crochet hook, safety eyes and stuffing. The hats take a extra colors, of course. And since the unicorn hat has a rainbow of colors for it’s mane, you’ll need even more colors when making that crochet hat.

  • Cascade Yarns 220 Superwash Sport, 100% superwash merino wool, 50 g/1.75 oz, 136.5 yds/125 m
    Potato: Extra Crème Café #873, Chocolate #819, Black #815
  • Crochet Hook: F/5/3.75 mm – for 90% of the pattern
  • Crochet Hook: C/2/2.75 mm
  • Crochet Hook: B/1/2.25 mm
  • Navy Beans or Fiber Fill / Stuffing
  • 6 mm safety eyes: 2
  • Stitch Markers: 3
  • 1 mm elastic in white: 12” (optional)
  • Small beads for pirate hat (optional)
  • Fishing wire for beading strand for pirate hat. (optional)
  • Pet comb (optional) for pirate hair
  • Walking Feet Toy (optional) on Amazon

As noted above, we used Cascade Yarns 220 Superwash Sport. We love this yarn because it’s thinner than medium worsted weight yarn and it comes in a wide variety of colors. You can usually find this yarn at independent yarn shops across the USA.

Sassy Spud is Nice and Spicy Nice

Sassy Spud has a tendency to reflect our own personality. Sometimes she can be very nice with sayings such as:

  • YUKON Do It.
  • You’re SPUDtacular.
  • I YAM proud of you.
  • Be Kind.

Sometimes Sassy Spud can be spicy nice. You know…a bit more saucy with sayings such as:

  • Watch This, Hold My Beer.
  • It Could Be Worse.
  • No…You…Didn’t.
  • I Don’t Think So.
  • Whatever
  • Per My Last Email

Because Sassy Spud has hats for various special occasions, she also has seasonal greetings such as:

  • They Say It’s Your Birthday.
  • Happy Halloween to My Favorite Ghoul.
  • Merry Christmas.
  • Happy Festivus.

There are over 75 printable greetings in this Sassy Spud crochet pattern. There are also a couple of blank signs so you can write your own greeting. All printable greetings are rated G and are appropriate for all audience.

Granny Square Chicken Crochet Pattern

September 27, 2024 By

Granny Square Chicken Crochet Pattern

We’re calling it the Granny Square Chicken crochet pattern, but it’s really “Birds of a Feather” because there are 8 birds! Yep…we’ve designed 8 birds each made from 2 granny squares. We love the idea of the “emotional support chicken” but not limiting ourselves to just chickens! Other birds are sweet, adorable and equally supportive.

Granny Square Chicken and Other Adorable Birds

The chicken is super cute…but it doesn’t have to stop there. Changing colors in various places in the granny squares creates other equally stunning birds. This crochet pattern includes 8 total birds.

8 Birds in the Granny Square Chicken Crochet Pattern:

  • Sunflower Chicken
  • Bald Eagle
  • Blue Jay
  • Cardinal
  • Goldfinch
  • House Finch
  • Parakeet
  • Robin

  • Needle: Yarn Needle for sewing
  • Stuffing
  • Safety Eyes: (2) 10mm per bird

About the Granny Square Chicken Crochet Pattern

As mentioned above, the supplies needed to make a crochet granny square bird are pretty minimal. Some medium worsted weight yarn (pictured in acrylic), a crochet hook, stuffing and safety eyes. Some of these birds are made with only 2 colors. Some are made with up to 4 colors. These are great projects for partial skeins you may have in your stash.

The granny square used in these birds is similar to a traditional granny square but it’s not exactly the same. You can see by looking at the birds that the granny square is not as holey as a traditional granny square. The pattern is nearly the same for each bird with the major exception being color placement. The pattern will tell you where to change color to create each distinctive bird.

A crucial element to creating these crochet birds is that the granny squares have a left and right side. You’ll stitch the left side, then need to create the mirror image or reverse the color order so that the striping lines up when the granny squares are stitched together. The pattern will give complete written instructions for creating both the left and right side.

The granny square chicken measures about 4″ long x 3″ wide x 3″ tall.

Goldfinch or Wolverine?

Is it just me or does the Goldfinch bear a striking resemblance to the X-Men Wolverine comic book character? The black mask, the yellow body and black accents – are you seeing it?

Yes, we have some superhero fans in the family, so the goldfinch is a popular bird with us.

Granny Square Cardinal Crochet Pattern

Cardinals are loved by so many people. Their bright red coloring is gorgeous. This would be a fun bird to gift to friends and family. It’s also a popular mascot for sports teams.

We love the cardinal pattern because we have family in Arizona. Go Cardinals! #BeRedSeeRed Of course, it’s not just the mascot to the NFL team in Arizona. It’s used by many schools around the country. That’s what makes this a great handmade gift for friends and family.

Granny Square Bird Christmas Ornament

The granny square birds are a fun size for creating ornaments. Simply tie a string from the top of the head and it’s ready to hang on the tree.

Check out how the granny square cardinal looks on the tree. So stunning.

As you can see, we’re super excited about this granny square chicken pattern. There is no end to the number of birds you can make with this pattern simply by changing the color. Sometimes the color change is minimal. Sometimes there are a few more color changes. But it’s always worth it to see the different varieties come to life.
