Wynne Crochet Knit Wits

I was looking for something to hold my Double Pointed Needles in and couldn't find anything really that I liked so I designed something to hold them in. Now I just have to make one for all my other sizes.

Creating the pattern I doubled the size of the needles and added 4 inches for the flap. Laying out the needles side by side gave me the width. You can do the same for any size or length of needles.

The pattern is posted below the images, it is rather simple to follow.





DPN Pouch

This was made for a set of 5 size US 15 8" needles.

Stitches Used:
CH: Chain
SC: Single Crochet
SS: Slip Stich
BLO: Back Loop Only

Yarn Used: Red Heart Super Saver (Worsted Weight)

Use size F Crochet hook

Chain 15

Row 1: SC in 2nd stitch from hook, SC across (14 sts)
Row 2: CH 1, SC across
Row 3: CH 1, SC BLO across

Repeat rows 2 & 3 until piece measures 20 inches long.

Finishing: Fold up 7 inches then SS down sides though both layers, this will leave a 5 inch flap.

Embroider needle size on front of flap.

You can either make a loop at the bottom of the flap and sew a button on the front of the pouch to hook the loop to or make any kind of closure that you want. I made a long chain from the end of the flap then created a loop on the front of the pouch to loop my chain into.

This is a dodecahedron, a twelve pointed star. I crocheted this in about 3 days, filled it and added a bell in the center. It is about 7 to 8 inches across from point to point so it is rather large.

I made this lil bunny because, well I thought it was cute. The pattern can be found at
Lion Brand Yarn

Here is a bag I made for my Yoga Mat. The pattern can be found at Joyful Abode

This is my first try at a dishcloth.

Yarn: 2 oz ball Peaches & Creme Worsted Weight 4 ply cotton yarn.
Color: Winterberry
Hook: G or H

Row 1: ch 21, hdc in 3rd chain from hook and in each ch across
Row 2: ch 2, turn, hdc in each hdc across
Row 3 - 13: Repeat Row 2

Round 1:ch 2, hdc in same stitch (corner), hdc 18 evenly spaced stitches across the ends of the rows to the next corner, 3 hdc in the corner, hdc in each ch across to corner, 3 hdc in corner, hdc 18 evenly spaced stitches across to the ends of the rows, 3 hdc at corner, ss in top of first hdc.

Round 2: ch 1, sc in back loop of 1st hdc, sc in in back loops only of each hdc around, 3 sc in center hdc in each corner. Fasten off and weave in ends.

Some years ago I got a crocheted potholder from one of my student's whose mom makes them. I gave it to my mom and since I have been in a crocheting frenzy as of late, mom said I needed to learn to make them so she could have another. I didn't have the pattern to the one she already had so compromised and found a HDC Potholder. Trying my luck at it, it came out rather nice and she loves it. So here it is.

This is the pair I made for my niece, Loren. She is 10 and lives in Texas. Her and her family just spent a week with us and are leaving to go back home today.

Here they are finished, forgot to post them, I made two pairs, one for Squishy and one for her grandma.

Here is my latest project, a wee dragon that I think is adorable. My niece, Katie, wanted me to make her a dragon before she went back to Texas so I made one for her.

Remember this scarf? I have decided to post the pattern for it.



The following is the chart:



Basically you just follow the chart but doing it double sided is tricky.

Materials needed:

Size 8 (5.0 MM) knitting needles
1 Skein Red Heart Super Saver Burgundy
1 Skein Red Heart Super Saver Gold
(Or two colors of your choice)

CO 28 of both colors, making sure they alternate, Gold, Burgundy, Gold, burgundy

Row 1: K1, P1 (Making sure all Gold stitches are knit and all Burgundy is purl. All purl stitches come out as knit when you turn the project.)This row should start with a Burgundy.

Row 2, 3, 4, 5: Complete as Row 1 starting with the appropriate color that the row starts with

Row 6: Should start with Gold so follow the chart

Continue with chart, each row starts with a knit and ends with a purl. All odd numbered rows should start with Burgundy and all Even numbered rows should start Gold.

On the even rows the white spaces are Gold and dark spaces are burgundy

On the Odd rows the white spaces are Burgundy and dark spaces are Gold.

The pattern is knit long enough for an adult, which is about 5 foot long. To change the direction of the horse just start at the opposite end of the chart as you did when you started. If you want the horse running up the scarf, start with the bottom of the chart, if you want it running down the scarf, start at the top.

I always put five rows between each pattern then I made a checkerboard pattern at both ends and directly in the middle.

BE creative with it and if you have trouble just send me a message.

Yes I have gone crazy with crocheting animals. Here I have a teddy bear, a wiener dog, a puppy in a sweater, and a lady bug.



Now I am working on a pair of fingerless gloves or wristers, whichever you wish to call them. They are for Squishy, a 10 year old girl.

So here are the three animals I have left. There is the brown and white wolf, it looks like a bear though, my giraffe, and of course the Siamese kitty. Aren't they just cute?!

Here is my first attempt at a hat. It has ear flaps and pom poms and of course William wanted it. I got a snap of him wearing it and one of Binxi checking it out.

Well, I finally finished the Betty Boop Red Dress Afghan. Total it took me about a month to do. Below is a pic of it completed and JoAnn loved it. Keep in mind it is laid out over a Queen size bed.

Now I can start a new project and I already think I know what it is. Will post pics as I get things completed.

Okay, I promised a pic of the skull scarf so here it is. The lil girl wearing it is called Destany, but her nickname is Squishy. Anyway, she is Samie's daughter, the woman I made the scarf for.
