Wearing the Triceratops Bomber Hat is a fun way to keep warm and look extra cute. It is perfect for everyday, but also makes a great photo prop or costume. I designed this hat to be seamless so it looks great from all angles. The earflaps are designed to look like legs so that the whole hat looks like a triceratops. This pattern is made with super bulky yarn and contains three sizes.

How to Make a Magic Circle

I love learning new crochet techniques and incorporating them into my designs. Recently I have discovered the Magic Circle technique for starting crochet projects in the round. I love this method because it allows you to completely close the starting round of your project so that there is no unsightly hole in the top. Follow the steps below!


Step 1: Wrap yarn around your middle finger, forming an “X.”


Step 2: Place your thumb over the “X.” [Read more…]

Micah Makes a Blog

If you told me a year ago that I’d be sitting down to write my first post on my very own blog, I wouldn’t have believed you!

Back then I wasn’t what you would call “tech savvy.” I only turned on my old PC to look for recipes or print an occasional coupon. Between my growing collection of digital photos of my two kids and an effort to streamline our dining room, my husband and I decided to do away with the big desktop in favor of a MacBook.

I wasn’t what you would call “tech savvy.”

Since then I’ve slowly started doing more and more on the computer. First I began following different blogs, then I started posting my own comments. I experimented with eBay and even a little Craigslist. Eventually the laptop became a daily part of my life like baking, crocheting and other fun crafts.

This blog is my attempt to combine technology with my other passions and connect with fellow moms, crocheters or other crafters. Whether you’re already “tech savvy” or just starting out, I hope you’ll take a minute to look around and consider signing up for my monthly newsletter or just say “hello” in the comments. You never know, maybe a year from now you’ll be starting your own blog!
