Starburst Slouchy Cap
An interesting texture came out of working with stitches trying to recreate an entirely different pattern based on a photo. This is actually the "wrong" side but really looks like it should be the right side so here ya go...

Horse-head Lovey
Made this sweet little horsey lovey for a friend's daughter. She hasn't seen it yet, but I'm fairly confident that she won't be interested in surfing my site in between toddles, chasing the cats and climbing the furniture.

Elegant Ewe All Shawl
This is one of Doris Chan's great crochet patterns, "All Shawl", and it's available for free on Ravelry here.
This version of the All Shawl is called Elegant Ewe and, for once, I didn't make any adjustments to the original pattern!

Owl Fingerless Mitts
These fingerless mitts were super easy and fast to work up, plus made with Canan Baby Soft 100% acrylic yarn, they came out super soft! I was pleasantly surprised by the pattern and the end result. The only alteration I made to the pattern was to extend both ends by a couple rows for a little longer coverage.

Asymmetrical Button Cowl
Called the Margaret Button Cowl, this project worked up very quickly and was a lot of fun to make! I used three different colorways of James C. Brett Chunky with Merino (70% Acrylic, 20% Polyamide, 10% Merino Wool) making it super soft, warm, cozy, AND machine washable!
Grape Berries Shawl
The cluster stitches in the larger open-middle rows are actually
five-point flowers, but when done completely in a deep purple like this,
I thought they looked more like grapes or berries.
7 Point Star Afghan
I opted not to follow the pattern's suggestions on when to change color, I just eyeballed it. Three different shades of green were used in 100% acrylic, 50/50 acrylic/cotton, and 100% cotton. It turned out very plush and cozy. I'm going to have to recreate one for myself! ;-)
