Craft fairs have become my new favorite thing. But when I started doing shows, my biggest question (and the one I saw the most) was about what to crochet for craft fairs? What should you make? What does well? Today, I have a couple of ideas you can use along with some advice on choosing …
Baby
These patterns are clothing items and some toys made for babies and very young children.
I’ve always loved making things for others, but there’s something so special about creating something for a baby. Last month, I was given the opportunity to make another baby blanket and I’m in love with this simple crochet blanket design. My customer asked me to create something gender-neutral that would look nice in a black/white/gray …
I spent most of the last summer taking part in every craft fair I could sign up for, and one of my absolute best-selling items was my crochet jellyfish! These things sold like hotcakes and even when people ended up purchasing other toys and things, it was the stack of jellyfish that drew them in. …
Have you ever made something you were completely obsessed with? For me, that’s this baby blanket!

This week, I have a crochet pattern for the easiest and squishiest baby blanket! While trying to work my way through my stash, I noticed I had quite a lot of certain yarns. I’ve been working with a lot of Bernat Blanket yarn over the year and I’ve ended up with bits of different colors …
