I had planned on waiting until next week to releas I had planned on waiting until next week to release this Gnome but just couldn't resist! Santa the Gnome is so stinking cute! I loved using the Bernat Blanket Tiny for the beard and hair! (Although he looks pretty great with worsted there too.) I think I'll make one in earth tones too so he can be a year-round garden protector! lol! You can get the Premium PDF download for Santa the Gnome half off for the rest of today on either Ravelry or Etsy.

I'm really excited about this new Autumn Crisp Gif I'm really excited about this new Autumn Crisp Gift set! The blanket is simple with just enough texture to keep in interesting. The bear is adorable! And the hat is a great companion accessory. You can definitely change it up and create your own striping but the color changing cakes make it sooo easy!

No coupon needed, links in bio! #auburnelephant #crochetpattern #patternsale #makerlife #diygifts #handmadegiftideas
I don't know about you but I'm a bit of a pattern I don't know about you but I'm a bit of a pattern hoarder... I buy or save patterns frequently thinking I'll get to them next. Then I get distracted! There are so many amazing patterns and designers out there that I just want to support them and hoard them all! lol! If you're in need of more patterns for your stockpile too, you might as well get them while they are on sale, right?! Auburn Elephant pattern PDFs are 50% off through Monday night! Plenty of time to find something fun to make. I am also releasing 2 Brand New patterns today to go along with the sale! I planned on spreading their releases out but just couldn't wait! The Autumn Crisp Gift Set includes 3 pieces- a baby blanket, small bear, and a hat! It uses 2 skeins of Caron Big Cakes and makes a great gift set for new arrivals! Santa the Gnome is a fun little decor addition! He'll stand guard and watch over your other decorations! :) I'd love for you to check these out and let me know what you think! #AuburnElephant #crochetgifts #patternsale #makerlife #handmadedecor #christmas #babyshowergifts #crochetpatterns

Meet Bearly Bear! Named by my 8yo because he uses Meet Bearly Bear! Named by my 8yo because he uses "barely" any yarn! ๐Ÿ˜‚ This guy was a happy addition to a blanket design I was working on. I wanted to use as much of the 2 skeins of #CaronBigCakes as I could. I had barely enough left after the blanket (baby-sized) to make this little bear and a baby hat! It makes an amazing little gift set! I'm super excited to share the whole set! Testers are finishing up and then it will be ready to post. Possibly in time to go along with a Black Friday pattern sale... Hmm...๐Ÿ˜Š #AuburnElephant #crochetgifts #handmadegifts #makersgonnamake
My dear friend bought me one of these #Anniversary My dear friend bought me one of these #AnniversaryCakes and I'm super excited! I had been debating picking one up but I'm trying to only buy yarn when I have a project in mind for it and not just because... (it's a lofty goal, I know ๐Ÿ˜‚) But now that I have this one I had to test it out! ๐Ÿ˜Š Have you used one of these monster skeins yet? What did you make? There are so many possibilities! #AuburnElephant #yarnspirations #makersgonnamake

Halloween is getting sooo close! I'm a little bumm Halloween is getting sooo close! I'm a little bummed that this year is going to be so different. I didn't even have the motivation to make costumes... The boys are going to be *gasp* store-bought ninjas.... Sigh. It will be okay. One day they won't want me to make them costumes anyway. I did have plenty of motivation to make up these Spooky Pillows and this Nightmare the Snake for a friend! They are so perfect together! The graphs for these faces are available in the Premium PDFs on Ravelry or Etsy. (my site has the links) The free patterns are on my site too!

I was born late so it seems appropriate that I would start this birthday sale late! I spent the day with my boys. We did our schoolwork, went to Ikea to pick up a new bedroom set (soooo excited about that!), played Exploding Kittens where I lost almost immediately, and ended the day with my traditional Angel Food cake that I didn't have to share! ๐ŸŽ‚๐Ÿ˜Š It's the little things that make a girl feel special! ๐Ÿ˜‚ #crochetersofinstagram #AuburnElephant #crochetpatterns #patternsale #makerlife #belatedbirthday
