My biggest seller this season. Monkeys!
I used part of a free pattern.
I give it 5 stars!(the part of the pattern I used, that is..)

For my arms,legs, and body, I use this sock monkey pattern by Crochet Geek.

Her videos are very informative and easy to follow.

About Yarned with love.
When I started this blog, I thought it would be all about me...
things I make, patterns I make......
ME ME ME ME
Of course, it was hardly used.. it gets boring writing all about me...
Well, today I had a Epiphany!!!!
Why not make it a review blog!
While I have written my own patterns.
They are few and far between.. I am a fairly new crocheter.. writing patterns take a LOT of time..
I have found it easier to simply buy OR find for free, patterns...
When I can find what I am looking for....
This led to my new blog.
Why not share what I make(whether it be somebody Else's design or my own), sort of making it about me! While also reviewing patterns I use, free or otherwise!
I have to say, though I haven't been at it long, I have already had a, MAN I wish someone would have told me this pattern was going to be like this, moment...
Well...now someone will tell you WHAT the pattern is like!!!!!
So, sit back and enjoy.
Comments welcomed!!!
If there is a pattern you are eyeing but not sure on trying, tell me!
I may try it out for you, give a review here, and BAM!!!! You, will then know whether or not you want to try it.. free or otherwise:)
