Crochet Instructor Training in Texas

I had the opportunity to visit Lonestar Yarn in Bedford, Texas for Instructor training and certification with the Craft Yarn Council. Thank you to Kris, bottom left, who was a fantastic hostess for this event at her store. The training was led by Linda Dean, Master Crochet Instructor with the Crochet Guild of America. I learned so much from her and these instructors from all over the country and I am inspired for the new classes coming this fall!!

Another thank you to the following sponsors who allowed me to use and take home a huge variety of yarn and supplies to share with Des Moines students:

@yarnspirations

@cascadeyarns

@lionbrandyarn

@dmc_crafts

@cloverusa

@prym.americas

@crochetguildofamerica

@lonestaryarn

Crochet Projects from Crochet Class

This ten-year-old crochet friend is tackling a circular blanket with a flower edging. She learns so quicky and has put a lot of thought into the yarn for her project. It has been fun working through the pattern together. Look out world, because I know this very young crochet artist is going to impress us all with her work!!! Check in to see her completed project!

Pumpkin Hat Pattern for Kids

Crochet pumpkin hat

I have made this child’s pumpkin hat several times around Halloween for children in my life. It takes less than one skein for yarn and just a few hours to make. This time I spent a lot of time on the written pattern.

Since I haven’t shared the pattern in previous class material, I will share the pattern with subscribers.

Your Free Pumpkin Hat Pattern Includes:

  • Detailed, easy-to-follow instructions for each round
  • Tips for adjusting size for newborns, babies, and toddlers
  • Optional curly stem for extra cuteness
  • Video tutorial for both right and left hand
  • Ask crochet questions right here at the website
