Crocodile Stitch Help
It was brought to my attention by one of my wonderful pattern testers that there is a little detail in the crocodile stitch that if done incorrectly can ruin the look of the piece.
The crocodile stitch is basically a two row repeating stitch where the 2nd row is worked in front of the 1st row (instead of above). The 1st row is a simple v-stitch row. The 2nd row is the “scale” row. When working the 3rd row (2nd v-stitch row), the v-stitches that land between scales should catch the scale to secure it in place.
Here is my little help photo explaining this part of the stitch:
Hope that helps!
New Pattern – Simply Sweet Car Seat / Stroller Blanket
New pattern released today!
This is the Simply Sweet Car Seat / Stroller Blanket:
No more falling blankets from your car seat or stroller, the straps go right through!
This car seat blanket is simple and cute. It works up easily and includes instructions for 2 optional stripe patterns. Perfect for a girl or boy. Works with any standard infant car seat and most strollers and toddler car seats.
I came up with this blanket because I have, on more than one occasion, had blankets fall from my stroller as I was walking without noticing it. When I have noticed it (blocks later), I found it very frustrating and irritating to have to retrace my steps looking for it. Not to mention when your baby is in the back seat and cries because she/he has kicked off their blanket and can’t find it.
Problems solved!
Crocodile Stitch Car Seat Canopy Pattern
Finally! It’s here!
Some of you may know that I have been working on some super secret crochet patterns over the last month. Here is the first one to be released. (More will come!)
Introducing the Crocodile Stitch Car Seat Canopy!
Don’t you just love this stitch?
The crocodile stitch is one of the top trending stitches in crochet.
I’m pretty sure you can tell why. It’s gorgeous and really not that difficult once you figure it out.
This pattern is available in any of my shops:

Heather…did you die?
Rest assured dear friends, although I have been absent for a couple of months, I am alive and well! Life has just happened and I’ve been crazy busy.
What’s coming up?
I am currently working on some crochet patterns that I’m pretty excited about. It’s for an item that I have yet to even see a crochet pattern for. I did find a finished crocheted version of this upcoming item, but I have not been able to find a pattern. This is what I was hoping for. It was one of those lightbulb turning on type moments.
I have kept this project top-secret for the time being because I am THAT excited about it. Stick around to find out what it is! I am going to write patterns for several different designs before I release them, again because I have yet to see a pattern for one.
See you soon….
