🎃✨ A New Halloween Crochet Adventure Begins! ✨🎃

 

I'm so excited to finally share what my next big crochet project will be!

This year, I'm creating an original Pumpkin Patch Voodoo Scarecrow costume! 🍂🧡 Think spooky harvest vibes with a creepy cute twist patchwork squares in beautiful shades of orange, stitched details, jack-o'-lantern patches, a standing voodoo cow hanging from the waist, and a glowing pumpkin staff to complete the look. I'm even designing two versions: one with a classic witch hat and another with a cozy hood for those chilly Halloween nights! (I will only make one)

This isn't just a costume it's going to be a full crochet pattern and step-by-step tutorial that I'll be sharing with all of you along the way.

I have a feeling this is going to be one of my biggest and most creative crochet projects yet, and I can't wait to share every step with you. Your support makes ambitious projects like this possible, and I'm so grateful to have you along for the ride!

Now tell me… Team Witch Hat 🧙 or Team Hood 🧥? I'd love to hear which version you're most excited to see!

Happy Crocheting! 💜

Note: I know the Halloween is 4 months away but this is a big project and I want to make sure I have enough time for mistakes 

🌸 Creamsicle Bloom Jacket Pattern is Finished! ✨

 

I'm so excited to finally share that the Creamsicle Bloom Jacket pattern is officially finished! 🎉

This project has been such a joy to create from start to finish. I wanted to design something that felt light, cozy, and effortless to wear, while still showing off the beauty of hand-dyed yarn. The soft creams, pinks, and subtle speckles reminded me of blooming flowers on a warm spring day—which is exactly how the Creamsicle Bloom Jacket got its name.

The oversized hood is one of my favorite features. It adds just the right amount of comfort and gives the jacket that cozy, "throw it on and go" feel. I also love how the contrasting pink hood and sleeves frame the delicate color changes in the body of the jacket.

The Rainbow Candy Dress is Finished!

After weeks of designing, experimenting, frogging, reshaping, and refining, I'm so excited to finally share the completed Rainbow Candy Dress with you all!

This design went through several changes along the way from adjusting the shaping and creating the perfect pleats to adding the playful ruffled hem and finishing the neckline details. Every step helped transform the original idea into the finished dress you see today.

🌈✨ Rainbow Candy Dress Progress Update ✨🌈

 

I’m excited to share that I’ve officially finished the bottom portion of the Rainbow Candy Dress! 🎉

After spending time perfecting the shaping I decided to add a row of playful ruffles along the hem. I love how they give the dress extra movement and add to the fun, candy-inspired feel of the design. The ruffled edge was exactly the finishing touch the skirt needed!

With the lower half complete, I’m now turning my attention to the neckline and upper edge of the dress. This is where I’ll be refining the fit and deciding on the final details that will tie the whole design together.

It’s been so rewarding watching this dress come to life one section at a time, and I’m excited to see how the neckline transforms the overall look. Thank you all for following along on this creative journey and for your continued support! 💕🧶

✨ Rainbow Candy Dress Update ✨

 

Success! I finally figured out how to get the pleats/ruffles I wanted for the Rainbow Candy Dress. 

After quite a bit of experimenting, I started counting out my stitches and strategically placing increases. For the increase stitches, I worked 3 HDC into the same stitch, and after repeating this over 2 rounds, the yarn began forming the fuller pleats/ruffles I was envisioning.

I'm so much happier with the shape now! The skirt has more movement, volume, and that playful candy inspired look I was hoping to achieve. Sometimes crochet design is all about testing ideas until you find the right formula, and this was definitely one of those moments.

What do you think of the new pleats? I'd love to hear your thoughts as I continue working on the dress!
