Annual Crochet Blog Tour from Crochetville 2016

Crochetville is kicking off National Crochet Month with its annual designer blog tour, 

The Crochet Express!

You won't want to miss all the great designer posts on the tour which will include free patterns, yarn giveaways and great crochet pattern deals. 

In honor of National Crochet Month, for a LIMITED TIME ONLY, one design from each of my Etsy Shops will be given away for FREE!  I have never offered 3 designs for free before!

The only thing I ask is that IF you download any of the free patterns, that you leave A COMMENT for me below. Thank you!

The first FREE PATTERN is the Houndstooth Cowl from Jocelyn Designs

This trendy Houndstooth Cowl is a must accessory for Winter and fashion.
Crocheted from a soft blend of 50% Wool and 50% acrylic, this beautiful cowl will keep you warm, yet stylish on a cold day!
This cowl is smaller than our other cowls and does not need to be wrapped. Just slip it over your head!
Wear it with a coat outdoors or indoors over a sweater.
It can be dressed up or paired with your favorite jeans for a relaxed look.
A large hook and super bulky yarn makes this a fast project.
Beautiful Winter and early Spring accessory!

DOWNLOAD the HOUNDSTOOTH COWL HERE.


 

The second FREE PATTERN is my Flower Pot Bonnet from Too Cute Crochet.

How sweet is this precious little Blossom in the flower pot?
Quick and easy crochet pattern written in four sizes from Newborn to 12 months.
It is made all in one piece so you don't have any petals to sew on afterward! Much easier than some Flower Bonnet patterns!
This adorable flower bonnet is not only trendy for today’s photography, but also a fun & and easy project!
#5 Bulky yarn & a large hook make this a quick pattern to crochet.

 During the setup of this Blog Tour for National Crochet Month, it was decided to support the charity, Project Night Night Many crocheters love to crochet for charity and this is such a worthwhile cause where you can donate either money or crochet blankets to the cause. We hope you will also help support our charity for National Crochet Month, PROJECT NIGHT NIGHT, Helping Homeless Children Have
Sweeter Dreams. From their website: "Every child who receives one of our Night Night Packages leaves the shelter owning a book which encourages reading and family bonding, a security blanket which can be cuddled, and a stuffed animal which can become a cherished friend.  We have one objective – to deliver our Night Night Packages to every homeless child in the country who needs one".
