Crocheted Granny Square Scarf Is Fun And Stylish!

Presenting my most favorite crocheted winter accessory this year: a long and chunky granny square scarf in black, white and gray, to wrap around several times, for a very cozy and stylish look! I wore this scarf in NYC (yes, I was there briefly!) last week and was so glad I took it along!

Crochet A Chunky Ribbed Scarf For Men And Boys

Crocheting a ribbed scarf using the half double crochet stitch is so simple that I just had to make another one! Well, truthfully this is my third, as after my first ribbed crochet scarf for my husband, my nine year old son wanted one as well, so I had just enough yarn to make a child-sized version. But of course if I make a scarf for my nine year old, then my eleven year old will certainly want one too! And thus this longer and thicker version of the original crocheted ribbed scarf was born! And I have to say, I am so happy that my stash included two versions of the same yarn in slightly different blue jeans shades, allowing me to make a simple color change for the last two rows, which I think gives this scarf a modern twist that brings it to a whole new level style-wise.

Crocheted Triangular Granny Scarf To Whip Up For Gift Giving!

In need of a gift from the heart for a friend, I decided to whip up a triangular granny scarf/shawl in colors that she loves, as she admired the one I made for myself! I made this in two nights or so, and had so much fun crocheting it that I think I need to make another for myself, and maybe one for my daughter as well.

Granny Square Triangular Shawl With Pom Poms!

Last winter I crocheted this cozy granny square triangular shawl/scarf with a fun pom pom edging, and am just getting around to sharing with you now! I used aran weight 100% wool, the creme is vintage and came from a neighbor and the red and brown were from my mother's stash from the 70's!  So glad to have used something that had yet to find it's purpose in this world, and was taking up space in my craft room storeroom!.

A lacy crocheted cape could be the greatest gift for a little girl in your life, or possibly even part of a fun costume for someone near and dear, which is how this little cape was born! Last Purim as we brainstormed over costume ideas we came up with the idea of canary, creativejewishmom style of course. Meaning with lots of color and handmade details and some stretching of our abilities as well!

Crocheted Granny Triangular Shawl.....Super Simple!

I've been wearing my crocheted granny triangular scarf/shawl for a few weeks now, and loving it! I crocheted this in an evening, and while I wouldn't guess that a triangular scarf is preferable, this one has been so much fun to wear, and perfect for chilly spring mornings and evenings with a light coat. I was inspired by a similar scarf made by happy in red, one of my faithful Craft Schooling Sunday contributors.

Crocheted Ribbed Button Up Cowl For Men and Women

A crocheted ribbed cowl is the perfect little accessory to keep you warm on a cool Spring morning, plus it's great for men and women and is a perfect gift to whip up in just a few hours. I love the fact that you can wear it so many ways, and of course make it in any color and just about any type of yarn.

Crocheted Skinny Scalloped Scarf

Here it is, my friends, the crocheted skinny scalloped scarf. A super project for beginners and for anybody who'd like to whip up a load of handmade gifts in the next month or so. And guess what, these scarfs may look like they're more for style than warmth, but I can attest to the fact that they're great neck warmers to wear anytime without the bulk of a regular scarf. In fact I'm wearing one right now!
