to a guest blogger each Saturday.
I schedule you in and all you have to do is send me
a post at least a day before.
In return I'll post, tweet, g+ and pin to get you as many new followers for you.
All I ask in return is that you let your followers know about the post.

Feel free to link anything handmade.

Guest Blogger Week 55 Cre8tion Crochet

I would like to say a huge welcome

to Lorene

 from Cre8tion Crochet

 

Hello, my name is Lorene and I am the owner/designer of Cre8tion Crochet.  

At www.cre8tioncrochet.com you will find lots of free crochet patterns, tutorials and video’s, helpful hints and tricks and information on blogging and owning your own business.  There is so much more that I will soon be delivering to my followers, I can’t wait to see what the future holds.  

Some of my favorite items to make are hats.  I just love the creativity that can be expressed in a relatively short time span and being able to wear that piece of art for others to enjoy!  

I recently wrote 3 patterns for owl hats.  I had originally sworn that I would not ever be making owl hats, since let’s face it they are grossly overdone.  However I really wanted one for my daughter who just adores owls.  Of course I couldn’t follow a pattern that was already out there, so I decided to design my own. 

My owl hats stand apart from others out there for two reasons.  One because of the outline of color around the eyes, and two for the actual eyes.  In my Winky Winky the Owl

my owl winks at you with one eye (which is fabled to mean “I love you”).  My Sleepy the Little Owl 

is a cheeky little owl who looks awfully mischievous.  Lastly my Oh Boy Oh Boy the Owl  has the cutest little glimmer in his eyes.  All of my girl owls also feature the cutest darling eyelashes.  I have yet to find any owl patterns that have any of these features.  My owl hats are often in the top 5 most popular patterns on my blog.  

I hope you enjoy the as much as I do.  Have fun and….

Happy Hookin’

I would like to say a huge thank you to Lorene!

I just love your owl hat patterns!

They've each got such a different personality.
