Crocheted Heart Pattern

Crocheted Heart Pattern
by Angela Scherber


Materials : 
Yarn:I used I love this yarn (you can use any kind you would like.)
 Hook: H and J (I like to go a couple of sizes up. So I can make sure my stitches don't get to tight for the sl st. You may just use the h if you want.)

Abbreviations:
ch=chain
sc=single crochet
dc=double crochet
hdc= half double crochet
tr= triple/treble crochet
sl st=slip stitch 

Pattern:
ch 4, 2 tr, 2 db, 2 hdc, sc, ch 2, sc, 2 hdc, 2 dc, 2 tr, ch 4, slip stitch into magic ring
Pull the magic ring yarn tighter but not to tight just yet. You need some room to get into the first stitch to do a sl st around in each stitch. 

Cut yarn and now pull the magic ring yarn as tight as you would like. Weave in ends

Add any kind of embellishment you would like. 

To obtain different sizes I use different size hooks.

If you have any questions please feel free to ask. 

If you would like or can't crochet a heart(s).

Couple of fun hairstyles

Couple of fun hairstyles

Here are a couple of fun 
hair styles. They are bits and pieces
of others I have seen. I will add video's
 of how to do certain parts. 

Dutch side braid with flower
I did this one for my daughters back
to school night. She also left it in over
night and wore it the next day.
  

 Her ponytail holder had a flower on it. 
So we wrapped it around into a bun and put 
it the flower in the middle and put some
bobby pins to hold it down. 
It was so perfect for a hot summer day. 

Rope style bun

 I wanted something simple but fun. 
I left some of my bangs out and did a a roll
up. Not sure what you call it. But here is how to do it. 
In this video go to about 8:20 in and it will show you
how to do your bangs if you want to do this. 

 For the back. I put it back into a ponytail. 
Divide into two parts and then did a
rope braid for each section. Then I wrapped them 
around to form a bun and used bobby pins
to hold them in place. 

If you have any questions. Please feel free to ask
here or send me a message at
wigglewormscorner@gmail.com. 

Happy Styling!!!

Fall Wreath

Fall Wreath

I decided instead of buy one this year. I would make my own. I need a new one. 
Supplies:

Yarn
Styrofoam ring
Your choice of decorations

I started by wraping my yarn around the 
Styrofoam ring. Once I got a rhyme down
it was really easy. It took time to do the wrapping. 
I sat and watched some tv as I did mine. 
    I went all the around and then added the decorations next. 
Then I started to wrap my yarn around that till it was all 
covered up. I wanted to cut them shorter but my 
cutter was not working. I need to sharpen it up. 
So I left mine. 
 I left mine like this. But I  want to add a bow to mine 
and I might add the big bells.
 Right know I don't like it alone. 
If you make one. I would love to see yours. 

Send me a email message to wigglewormscorner@gmail.com
If you have any questions feel free to ask. :)

Have fun and Enjoy!

Flower Hair Bow Style


It took me a couple of try's to get the flower down. 
I did have to use bobby pins like she did too. 
Next time I am going to try to do one more.

I just curled up the rest and pulled some
to the side and left some down. 


I also think next time I will find something to hide my
ponytail holder. 


Here is where I got the idea

Dying cotton yarn

Dying cotton yarn

I have seen a video on dying cotton yarn and wanted to try it. 

How to Dye Cotton Yarn with a Tulip Tie Dye Kit



I got some Sugars and Cream white yarn.    
I had some left over dye from dying t-shirts with my girls. 
So I used those colors. Red, black and green. 
 

 I unwound it and and laid it on plastic wrap and a pan. 
Just in-case the dye leaked through.



I then started to adding the dye. I did not have enough
to cover it all. But I did want some white parts anyways. 
After I got it all on. I then pushed down on it. To make sure it 
was all the way through out the whole part I wanted. 


 Then I covered it up for 3 hours and let it soak in. 
I did not want really dark colors. So I did not do it as long
as I would with my t-shirts.


Then I rinsed it out till there was no dye coming out and hung it up 
to air dry. 

I then used my machine to wind it all up into a ball again. 
When I was done. I threw it into a laundry bag and washed it. 
Then threw it into the dryer. 


I have started to make wash cloths out of this pretty yarn. 
I love the way it turned out and can't wait to do it again 
in the near future. 





If you have any questions please feel free to ask.

Happy Crafting!!!!

Taco Bake

Taco Bake


My girls love this. We did leave out the 
Salsa Con Queso. I had them try it and 
they did not like it. It turned out really good
without it. 

Taco Back

Ingredients:
 
1 pound ground beef
1 packet taco seasoning
* water as called for on back of seasoning packet
3 large flour tortillas (8-inch size)
1/2 cup Salsa Con Queso
1 1/2-2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend

Directions:
 
Brown and crumble ground beef. Drain excess grease.
Add in taco seasoning and water (following directions on back of seasoning packet).

Once the taco meat is ready, turn off heat and add in 1/2 cup salsa con queso.Give it a good stir until thoroughly combined. 

Preheat oven to 350F degrees. 
Spry an 8-inch round baking pan with nostick cooking spray. 
Layer the bottom of the pan with flour tortilla.  

Now add about 1/3 of the ground beef taco filling on the first layer.  

Then add 1/3 of the shredded cheese.

continue until you are done with all the layers: another tortillla, more taco mixture, more cheese. 
Bake at 350F dregrees for about 15-20 mins.
Until  cheese is melted and edges are slightly golden brown. 

Allow to cool for a couple of minutes. 
Then slice and serve. 

We topped ours with sour cream. I also added green onions. 

Here is the link to where I got it: Taco Bake 

Happy Cooking!

Knotted Hair Bun

Knotted Hair Bun


I like this one. But I do think
my hair needs to be a bit logner
to really get it too look better. If I 
decide to wear it down. Like she 
says in the video. 

It was really easy and fast to do. 
I also only used four bobby pins. Which
for me I usually have to use more then that. 
I am going to wear this tomorrow at 
Scrap Fest. :)

Knotted Hair Bun - Link 







It is a great updo for summer, wedding, or just a 
day you want your hair out of your way.

Happy Styling!
