Berries in the Snow Scarf

By
if you don't block it it twists and looks like this

This little scarf was so much fun to come up with!!! At first I was thinking I wanted a peppermint type scarf and I found a yarn that was a deep red and white however after making it I wasn't happy with peppermint as a name ( look this week for my peppermint twist slouch hat!) so I went over to the AllFreeCrochet facebook page and asked for help naming this! WOW over 100 comments with GREAT fun names it was hard to choose just one so I went with the one that had the most likes! Thank you to Sam Henderson for the winning name!!
if you block it, it will lay flat like this


supplies:
any 4 ply yarn.... I use redheart team spirit burgundy ( looks red to me)  and white
j hook ( I am using my J a lot lately)

* in this scarf you always want to dc around your chain 6 NEVER dc around your triple* This scarf was inspired by queen anne's lace
* there is lots of turning so don't get dizzy, and don't get confused it is quite easy and quick once you get it! Find me on facebook or email me if you need help!

Motif 1
chain 6 , triple ( total of 4 loops pull through 2 at a time) crochet into the first chain,turn, chain 3, 11 dc, ( 12 dc total first chain 3 counts as dc) chain 3 turn, sc, into the top of the first dc, chain 3 and sc into each stitch

Motif 2 and every other motif,

** You want to alternate the curve part of your motif so TURN every time you start a new motif.
motif one, chain 6 start of triple crochet *** see how I chained and  turned and the triple crochets so the chain part was opposite of the last motif? YOU always want that. 

to make a triple, its just like a double just one extra loop.
at this point you turn and chain 3 and do 11 dc around the ch 6 NOT the triple!

this is what your 2 motifs should look like, keep alternating until you have the length you like.
the start or motif 3, see you it alternates?

chain 6 *turn* , triple ( total of 4 loops pull through 2 at a time) crochet into the first chain,turn, chain 3, 11 dc, ( 12 dc total first chain 3 counts as dc)  SLIP stitch into the previous motif, chain 3 turn, sc, into the top of the first dc, chain 3 and sc into each stitch

continue motif 2 until you have the desired length I make most of my scarfs to be about 6 ft , a longer scarf and be slimming :) however feel free to make as long or short as you desire :)
Will you be making one of these? Let me know what colors you use comment below!

Thread Cross Bookmark

By
I used Aunt Lydia's Crochet thread and a size D hook. Make a magic circle Round 1 Ch3, 2dc, ch2, 3dc, ch2, 3dc, ch2, 3dc, ch2 and join. Sides and top of cross Ch3 2dc, ch2, dc3 in any ch2 sp. Turn and *sl to ch2, ch3,2dc, ch2,3dc. *Turn and repeat * repeat everything in this step 3 more times. Cut thread and weave in ends at the ends of the sides. Bottom of the cross When you get to the last side repeat the * section 2 more times for a total of 4 shells for the bottom and 2 shells for the sides not including the center. On the top of the cross attach yarn and chain 26, skip the first 5 and sl to the first chain. Then I added a tassel. If thread isn't your thing check out this great bookmark Stitch 11 made from my Cross Bangle pattern! Check out the Stitch 11 post here

I am making about 30 of these for my 6 year old to hand out as Christmas gifts at school with mini candy canes in them! Below is a crochet chart for a basic hdc stocking but you can use any stitch. * turn at the end of every row,  * ch1 and hdc in the first stitch of every row Row 1 ( starts from the bottom up) chain 38 Row 2 38 hdc Row3-6 repeat row 2 Row 7 starting 11 stitches over ( you can do this my sl or if you alternate colors just attach the yarn on the 11th stitch) hdc in the next 18 stitch  R...
