October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Get your mammograms🩷

I’ve crocheted some fidgets in shades of pink for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Sometimes some of us need to keep our hands busy.

These little purse-charm-sized fidgets are great to attach to a purse strap or zipper so they are always on hand for those times.

The round ones are quiet Möbius strips that can be pulled through the center in a never ending cycle.

The pink awareness ribbon click-clack fidgets have a hair clip inside that can be bent back forth which makes the click-clack noise.

The rectangle one is a quiet maze fidget. There’s a wooden bead inside that can be moved around with your fingers through the little maze. The white yarn glows in the dark too!

And lastly, the pink rainbow click-clack fidget. Has the hair clip in it that makes the noise when bent back and forth.

Custom cat purse charms, right down to the little fishy tags. At least this was my attempt at trying to match the gray/black/white tabby colors. Harder than I thought.
The real cats are beautiful beyond description.

The tiny fishy tags are crocheted with yellow embroidery thread using one of the tiniest crochet hooks. Definitely needed to wear my reading glasses for those tiny stitches🤓😂

And inside each cat is a hair clip that makes a click-clack sound when it is bent back and forth. Even if it it’s not used as a fidget, the hair clip helps give each cat more structure.😉

Cats are always watching and stalking 😂🐈‍⬛

These little cuties are purse charms AND click-clack fidgets. They have a hair clip in them so when you bend it back and forth they make a click-clack sound.

The crochet pattern is by @butterflycraftdiy with an easy to follow video tutorial on YouTube. So fun and quick to make. So many color options too! I think I’ll make a sparkly gray one next!

Tiny Tree Purse Charm

I love making little things🥰
The star on this tree was made with the tiniest all-metal crochet hook I found in my grandmother’s stash of hooks.
(Almost stabbed my finger a couple of times making it 😂) It’s made by @boyeyarncrafts and is a size 10.

For the tree, I used @yarnspirations Caron-Blossom Cupcakes yarn in the color Teal Time. The yarn band calls for a size H/5mm hook but I used a size B/2.25mm hook.

The video pattern is by Poplar Crochet on YouTube.

Fun with silent fidgets! Got a request for one fidget for a friend’s 1st grader, so I made 4 special ones (2nd pic)
These are great to help little ones whose hands need to stay busy and to help them focus.

But then…I got a little carried away and made 32 of them for the entire classroom!😂🤩 each one is unique and no two are exactly the same.

The first picture shows the 32 silent Möbius/infinity fidgets where you pull the center up through the hole and it keeps going and going (plus two square maze fidgets with a wooden bead inside that can be moved through the maze)

The special 4 include:
• Blue Möbius/infinity fidget (edge glows in the dark)
• Green square maze fidget (edge glows in the dark)
• Green octopus fidget (edge and some tentacles glow in
the dark & head has a wooden bead inside to move
around, plus the tentacles are like worry-worms that can
be stretched and wound up again)
• White worry-worm-snowman

I made a baby shark! In the first pic, he looks big. But he really fits in the palm of my hand🤩🥰 With the little keychain strap added, it’ll make a great purse/bag charm.

This pattern is written by @theresascrochetshop for a bigger plushie-size toy. However, by using a smaller size crochet hook and cotton yarn instead of bulky yarn, you get this cute little guy.

Spooky-Time is near!! These fun and quick tiny makes are sure to bring smiles to all the ‘Littles’ in your life.

I tested a few out with a bunch of family and friends’ kids this weekend and they were a hit!!🤩🥳🥰

The pattern designer is @3amgracedesigns and her pattern has so many variations of each style: candy corn, pumpkin, & ghosts. (I accidentally turned my pumpkin upside down when I added my face, so it looks more like an orange apple😂🍊🍎🎃)

They are lightly stuffed and can easily be made into keychains or purse charms with a little hardware (or even a crocheted loop at the top of each)

I gave a bunch away as gifts before I had a chance to photograph all the different kinds I made. They’re really fun to make!!

Love, love, love lavender!

This blanket has so many shades of purple to light lavender. Once again got to use all my leftover cotton yarn for this lavender beauty!

Seriously! Bring on the cooler weather Mother Nature! I’m ready😂🥰💜

Scrappy Blues Blanket!💙🩵💙🩵💙

This crocheted blanket is all the half double crochet stitch which makes it a perfect mindless project and perfect stash buster project. I used every single blue & teal leftover yarn I had where there wasn’t enough for another project but when all mashed together…made a great blanket.

It’s heavy enough to be a light-weighted-blanket. Now if the fall weather would hurry up get here!

I cast on 163 stitches but somewhere along the way ended up with 160 stitches 😂
