#throwbackthursday to the year I made around 25 of

#throwbackthursday to the year I made around 25 of these little cats for Owen's birthday at school. He was soo excited to give them to his classmates and teachers.
Luckily, this pattern is super quick and easy so I think I made most of these in a day or so.
You can get the pattern on my site, links in bio! 😊 😺

This is the Ultimate Scrappy Cat! This ball of yar

This is the Ultimate Scrappy Cat! This ball of yarn was comprised of lots of leftover ends from a crazy blanket I threw together trying to use up yarn I bought with no purpose... (shocking, I know!)

These were ends that would have been tossed otherwise. I spent a few extra minutes to knot them together and wind a ball and there was just enough for this guy! Surprisingly, this one is Owen's favorite too. He loves the wild colors! I love that the yarn didn't go to waste! 😊

Get the pattern for your own Scrappy Cat! Links can be found in my bio!

May is my cat-obsessed boy's birthday month so it seemed appropriate to release some cat-themed patterns! 😸😸

Scrappy Cat is the purr-fect way to use up some of those scrap balls of yarn you might have leftover. :)

This is a quick project which makes it great for last minute gifts or as an added bonus gift.

You can get the Free pattern on the site. You can also get the Premium PDF with extra photos from Ravelry or Etsy as well. The PDF is 50% off now through May 12!

You can find all those links in my bio.

It's time for a Pattern (Rocket) Launch!! Yay!!
This plush rocket is the next in my Vroom Plushies set. Like the Airplane, Car, and Train Plushies- this Rocket is made in one piece and comes with a play mat pattern as well. It's a quick make and super fun!
You can find it on my site for free or the PDFs are available on Ravelry and Etsy (50% off until April 21!). All the links can be found through my bio.

Here in Kansas City, you can bet we are counting down the days until Super Bowl Sunday. (5 days left...) Definitely pulling for our Chiefs to hold on to that trophy!
I've got a new pattern just for the occasion too! This Football Helmet pillow is a great addition to your Super Bowl decorations! Even if you can't have the big party like usual, you can still get into the team spirit. I'll even support you making this pillow in your own team's colors. (Even if red is the best! lol!)
Get the links in my bio for the post and the Etsy and Ravelry listings!

:::NEW PATTERN RELEASE:::
I'm really excited about these! I hope that they take off... get it?? I know... I'm ridiculous. 😂
Anyway! They are super fun, quick, customizable. You can make your favorite or the whole set, with or without the play mats.
I have some plans for more "Vrooms" already! What kind of vehicle would you like to see?!

New pattern in the works! I started working on the

New pattern in the works! I started working on these simplified/minimalistic designs a couple months ago and am finally wrapping them up now!

I started with the idea that I would make them Loveys and attach little road and sky blankets. But now I'm thinking of just leaving them as is or with play mats. What do you think?

My favorite part is that these are made in all one piece! No sewing, yay!!

I'll keep you posted on when these are ready to post! 😊

NEW PATTERN RELEASE***
I'm excited to share these Winter Friends Pillows with you!
After I made the Halloween Pillows, I got on a roll and wanted to make something for the next season. These are great because they aren't holiday specific but they work for holiday décor too! They also make great snuggle buddies! :)

You can get the patterns on my site (Link in bio).

You can also get the PDFs if you prefer downloads for 50% off from Ravelry or Etsy through the 20th! (check out the link page in my bio!)

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. (Links in bio)

Hey! There's still one more day to get these Brand

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! I also love how it's not gender-specific. This set would make a perfect baby shower or Christmas gift for a new arrival. :)

The Premium PDF is available on ETSY and Ravelry for 50% until Monday. No coupon needed, links in bio!
