(Every pattern that I currently have available to download is in Word format and is downloadable on my Scribd. If I do not have a pattern there, then I do not have a downloadable version of it. Please do not e-mail me with requests of patterns, as I most likely will not even check my e-mail. I apologize for this but I have a full-time job now and no longer keep up with the pattern requests. Thanks, and here is the link to my Scribd: <a href="https://www.scribd.com/ashley_holden_14">https://www.scribd.com/ashley_holden_14</a>)<br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span><i style="text-align: left;"><b>***Note on my beanie patterns: I've realized that I had learned the DC stitch wrong, so my beanie pattern was done to the scale of my wrong stitch instead (which is really a long-DC stitch). So, you might want to do long-DC stitches, OR add a row or two to the bottom of the beanie. Also, my "Chain 2" NEVER counts as a DC in any of my patterns.***</b></i><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;"></span>Starting at other side of Earflap 1 (where you put your last stitch from Row 1), skip the right amount of stitches and start Earflap 2 in next stitch.

</div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"></span><br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">It's best when you have added earflaps to do a border in that same color of the earflaps first, and then another border in the contrasting color. This will give you a better looking edge, taking care of any weird gaps caused by different size stitches. So, chain 1 (after last stitch from earflap) & then SC around entire beanie in that same color, join to first SC. Then change to the contrasting color (Ishowed below how I do that) & SC around entire beanie again (make sure that if you are doing Regular Ties, that you do them at the points of the earflaps starting immediately after changing colors for second border)</span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"></span><br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><u>Changing colors:</u></b> End your last row by starting an SC into last stitch, but do not pull through loops on hook. So with the <b>color your ending</b>: yarn over, insert hook into last stitch, pull up a loop. Then get your <b>second color:</b> yarn over, pull through both loops on hook, slip stitch to first SC of round. Color change complete! Now, Chain 1 with this new color and continue with your border.</span></li>

<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">Cut yarn out of desired colors (1-3 colors) in 36" strands (9 total). Fold in half and grab at the loop that forms at the halfway point. Pull that loop through the ch-4 space from last row on Earflap. Open loop up and pull through the strands left (this makes a sort of knot to keep the braid on there and will double your strands, leaving you with 18).</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">Divide yarn into three groups, keeping in mind how the colors will come out looking, and braid until desired length. Tie another knot to finish off and cut ends so that only about an inch to an inch and a half hang down. **I usually make the braids about 5 1/2 inches long (from knot to knot) for 0-9 months and almost 9 inches long (from knot to knot)</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"> for the bigger sizes**</span></li>

I have found several free ones online, but I never felt like they looked proportionate or even anything like the shape of underwear. So, I combined several things and added to others to create a diaper cover pattern that I feel looks a lot more perfect.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
(Every pattern that I currently have available to download is in Word format and is downloadable on my Scribd. If I do not have a pattern there, then I do not have a downloadable version of it. Please do not e-mail me with requests of patterns, as I most likely will not even check my e-mail. I apologize for this but I have a full-time job now and no longer keep up with the pattern requests.

(Every pattern that I currently have available to download is in Word format and is downloadable on my Scribd. If I do not have a pattern there, then I do not have a downloadable version of it. Please do not e-mail me with requests of patterns, as I most likely will not even check my e-mail. I apologize for this but I have a full-time job now and no longer keep up with the pattern requests. Thanks, and here is the link to my Scribd: <a href="https://www.scribd.com/ashley_holden_14">https://www.scribd.com/ashley_holden_14</a>)</div>

I actually bought the pattern for the logo, so I won't post it on here (but you can buy it <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/100064306/superman-applique-pattern?ref=shop_home_feat_1">here</a> for pretty cheap). You can probably also create one yourself, it wouldn't be hard to duplicate.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Then, you would just need to stitch the "S" on it. There's a great tutorial <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Z7EyjLOtCw">here</a>.</div>

I also changed all my posts to reflect this changes, so please check them out if you have had any issues with my patterns or are just interested in them!<br />

I've also recently bought an infant mannequin head, so I added pictures of the beanies modeled on the mannequin to some of my posts and will get more up when I make more inventory. The posts with new pictures are:<br />

And, I have added new sizes to a pattern that I only had one size for... my <a href="http://butterflyscraftcreations.blogspot.com/2013/04/mickey-mouse-and-minnie-mouse-hats-sets.html" target="_blank">Mickey Mouse & Minnie Mouse Beanies</a> post!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I wanted to fix my current posts before added new ones BUT I am still working on typing up things to add new patterns to the blog (as I posted about previously), and will post them REALLY soon! So, make sure you look for those FREE patterns, I have 20 drafts waiting to be finished and posted so there will be plenty to come! And some others that I will be selling, including my modified Diaper Cover Pattern & Overall-ed Diaper Cover (that I use for my minion sets).</div>

I have had quite a few personal things going on, but I have been working on my crochet and have about 20 new things that I need to get posted. I'm aiming to get ALL of these things up by the end of February, so please bear with me while I get organized and get all these things typed out for you! I am excited about these new things. And, to give you an idea of what is to come, I've put together this sneak peek.....<br />

The first of many, hopefully!<br />
<br />
The first I came up with was this belted beanie design because it can be for several holidays: Leprechaun (for St. Patrick's Day), Santa (for Christmas), & Pilgrim (for Thanksgiving).<br />

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 16px;">Use a size H hook and size 4 worsted yarn in Red & Black for Santa, Brown & Black for Pilgrim, OR Green & Black for Leprechaun. I used I Love This Yarn's Red, Jelly Bean, & Black. And, RedHearts's Cafe Latte (this was the only color that I could find that looked right, but if you are making for a baby you might try to find something in a different brand since RedHeart is a little scratchy). </span><br />

color of the earflaps first, and then another border in the contrasting color.
This will give you a better looking edge, taking care of any weird gaps caused
by different size stitches. So, chain 1 (after last stitch from earflap)
& then SC around entire beanie in that same color, join to first SC.
Then change to the contrasting color (Ishowed below how I do that) & SC
around entire beanie again (make sure that if you are doing Regular Ties, that
you do them at the points of the earflaps starting immediately after changing
colors for second border)</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

Halos of Hopes! For those of you that crochet, you should check them out. They donate hats to cancer centers and hospitals for cancer patients. You can crochet, knit, or sew a hat in ANY size & ANY pattern and they will send them out to those various places. Something I plan on doing between my orders, while I have nothing else to make!<br />

The beanie was made with my <a href="http://butterflyscraftcreations.blogspot.com/2013/04/general-crochet-hat-patterns.html" target="_blank">General Beanie Pattern</a>, using a size H hook. I used I Love This Yarn in Red for the main color with Caron's Simply Soft in Blue Mint as a border. (Adding the Circle Applique shown below).<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<b style="font-size: x-large;">Circle Applique </b>(my original pattern)<br />
<i>Use a size H hook and size 4 worsted yarn in white & Black (I used I Love This Yarn's White& Black). Start off with white</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
Chain 2<br />
<b>Round 1:</b> 6 SC in the second chain from the hook, join to form a circle, chain 1 (6 SC)<br />
<b>Round 2: </b>2 SC in each around, join, chain 1 (12 SC)<br />
<b>Round 3:</b> (DC in first, 2 DC in next) repeat around, join, chain 1<br />
<b>Round 4: </b>(DC in first 2, 2 DC in next) repeat around, join, chain 1<br />
<b>Round 5:</b> (DC in first 3, 2 DC in next) repeat around, join, chain 1<br />

<b>Round 7:</b> (DC in first 5, 2 DC in next) repeat around, join, chain 1<br />
<b>Round 8: </b>(DC in first 6, 2 DC in next) repeat around, join, chain 1<br />
<b>Round 9:</b> (SC in first 7, skip next) repeat around, join<br />
<b>Round 10 (in Black):</b> Chain 1, SC in each around, join<br />

More superhero patterns! These are BEANIES & MASKS all in one! So, because of this, they do look a little too long in the pictures....but they look good when put on! These are a continuance of the birthday presents for my son. He loves to dress up & "play superhero", so I'm making quite a few dress up superhero items for him to play in.<br />
<br />

From the Iron Man pattern, I also created one of my baby sets & a beanie for my son's birthday. I used her mask pattern for the inspiration, but didn't like the double strands look (her patterns are all done double stranded) so I made it into a single stranded version. And, I used her pattern for the power source to put on the bottom. I won't post my edited version, though, because I paid for the original. The beanie was made with my <a href="http://butterflyscraftcreations.blogspot.com/2013/04/general-crochet-hat-patterns.html" target="_blank">General Beanie Pattern</a>, and you can read about my <a href="http://butterflyscraftcreations.blogspot.com/2013/04/diaper-cover-patterns.html" target="_blank">Diaper Covers</a>.</div>

These photography sets turn out super cute and only take about an hour per piece, so it's very worth it in my opinion. If you do buy them, make sure you are EXTREMELY loose with your crocheting. That's something I had issues with at first and my finished products were turning out tiny, my crocheting is usually very tight.</div>

<i>Use a size I hook and size 4 worsted yarn in Red & White</i><br />
<br />
Chain 20<br />
<b>Row 1 (in White): </b>SC in third chain from hook, (chain 1, skip 1, SC in next) repeat across row, chain 2 (counts as ch-space here and throughout), turn, (10 SC)<br />
<b>Row 2 (in White):</b> (SC in next ch-space, chain 1) repeat across row, SC in last ch-space (10 SC)<br />
<i>(Carry over you yarn when doing color changes, don't worry about cutting off and weaving in every time.)</i><br />
<b>Row 3 (in Red):</b> Chain 2, turn, (SC in next ch-space, chain 1) repeat across row, SC in last ch-space (10 SC)<br />
<b>Row 4 (in Red):</b> Chain 2, turn, (SC in next ch-space, chain 1) repeat across row, SC in last ch-space (10 SC)<br />
<b>Row 5-End:</b> Repeat Rows 3-4, alternating colors every 2 rows until piece measures 60” long, end with 2 rows of White.<br />
Finish off.<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b><u>Fringe</u></b></span><br />
<i>Use size 4 worsted yarn in Blue (I used Simply Caron's Blue Mint because it looked the most Seuss-ish)</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
Cut four 8" lengths of yarn, line them up and fold over to find the middle. Grab your hook and insert it into the space between SC stitches on the bottom of the scarf, pull a loop through of the blue (at that middle point of your blue pieces). This will leave you with a loop of blue on one side and the 8 ends of blue on the other side. Now you'll need to use two fingers and put through the loop, grab the 8 ends & pull them all through the loop. Pull tight so that this does not unravel. You will do 8 of these on each end.<br />

Well, while meeting his teacher, I realized that her room is HEAVILY decorated in a Dr Seuss theme. I decided to make her a few gifts in appreciation for what she does as a teacher (since their jobs are so thankless), and decided on a Cat in the Hat theme. So, these are what I came up with (the book is just for the photo, I didn't get that for her)....<br />

<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">It's best when you have added earflaps to do a border in that same color of the earflaps first, and then another border in the contrasting color. This will give you a better looking edge, taking care of any weird gaps caused by different size stitches. So, chain 1 (after last stitch from earflap) & then SC around entire beanie in that same color, join to first SC. Then change to the contrasting color (Ishowed below how I do that) & SC around entire beanie again (make sure that if you are doing Regular Ties, that you do them at the points of the earflaps starting immediately after changing colors for second border)</span></li>

<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">Cut yarn out of desired colors (1-3 colors) in 36" strands (9 total). Fold in half and grab at the loop that forms at the halfway point. Pull that loop through the ch-4 space from last row on Earflap. Open loop up and pull through the strands left (this makes a sort of knot to keep the braid on there and will double your strands, leaving you with 18).</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">Divide yarn into three groups, keeping in mind how the colors will come out looking, and braid until desired length. Tie another knot to finish off and cut ends so that only about an inch to an inch and a half hang down. **I usually make the braids about 5 1/2 inches long (from knot to knot) for 0-9 months and almost 9 inches long (from knot to knot)</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"> for the bigger sizes**</span></li>

Wind a strand of yarn around the cardboard approximately 30 times (or however thick you want it) and cut it. Carefully slide off of your hand or the cardboard, being careful to make sure it keeps the same shape. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">Cut about 15" length of yarn and place behind at the middle; wrap around and tie securely, making sure it stays at the middle. Leave the yarn ends long enough to attach the pom-pom to the beanie. Cut the yarn at the opposite both ends of the pom-pom to make the edges. Trim the ends, fluff it up, and attach to the beanie.</span></li>

Use the size eyes and amount of eyes that will look good on your beanie size! I used the directions to add the iris color of the minions.... but, as you'll notice in my pictures, for those earlier versions I did do not have the irises. Do them however you want! If you want irises, use brown for the regular minion and dark purple for the evil minion. If you don't want irises, continue all the Brown/Dark Purple rounds in black.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
The mouth can be done two ways.... either chain the length needed and stitch it down onto the beanie OR the method I used was forming the mouth straight on the beanie using the stitching method seen in <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Z7EyjLOtCw" target="_blank">this video</a>.</div>

<b><u>Straight Hair</u></b> (my original design)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I cut lengths of black yarn that were appropriate for the beanie size, then ran each through a stitch somewhere and tied knots on both sides of each of these strands to keep them in place.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b><u><br /></u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b style="text-decoration: underline;">Frizzy Hair</b> (my original design)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I cut lengths of yarn (double the size of the ones for the straight hair), found the center of that piece by folding it, stuck my hook in a stitch and pulled that middle part through (making a loop on one side and the two end sticking out on the other side). Then you need to spread the loop open with your fingers, grab the two ends and pull them though that loop. Pull tight so that it holds firm onto the stitch and doesn't unravel. Now, get a tapestry needle and pick at those two ends of yarn to pull all the strings apart on both strands of yarn (this causes it to become fuzzy and crimped). Do this several times until you have enough "hair" to cover the whole top of the beanie!</div>

Some of my basic patterns were rewritten in a way that will make the finished products look better.... So, in turn, I went through and changed those details on basically EVERY post since I write all my patterns based off the same basic one. I also put in new pictures with BETTER picture quality/coloring, so I hope that helps in showing you the true looks of these finished products!<br />
<br />
Also, I have a BUNCH of patterns that I'm going to post soon (I have just as many drafts as I do published posts at this point). I'm making a lot for my son's birthday and for Christmas gifts. I haven't been posting a lot because of this...busy making stuff instead of blogging, but I'll get them up here soon!<br />
<b><u><i><br /></i></u></b>
<b><u><i>Things to come:</i></u></b><br />
A lot of <b>Superhero</b> designs (I only have a son)!<br />
<b>Movie character</b> designs!<br />
Some <b>sewn designs</b>, instead of just crocheting!<br />

I'm trying to get all my more recent projects up here. I'm getting it done, just slowly. Here is one that I worked on for about 3 weeks...a "lapghan". My great aunt's 90th birthday was just recently and I remembered being told how cold she gets when she runs her air conditioner because it blows directly onto where she normally sits. She's also been a big quilter most of her life, so when I saw this normally quilting pattern of a Log Cabin design on an afghan.... I knew it was EXACTLY what I was looking for...</div>

(full-size pattern found <a href="http://www.redheart.com/files/patterns/pdf/WR1846.pdf" target="_blank">here</a>)<br />
<br />
<em>I used a size H hook & size 4 worsted yarn. You must get 7 different colors of yarn, the best use of the pattern is to get the yarns in gradients from the same base colors. The best way to keep them organized is to figure out the placement of your colors in your pattern and label the yarns with sticky notes, putting on it the letter that coordinates to that color in the pattern (as shown below)</em><br />

<em><u><strong>Special Stitches used:</strong></u></em><br />
<em><strong>long-DC</strong> (this is actually how I do my DC's normally on my beanies): yo and draw up a loop in next SC, yo and draw through 1 loop on hook, yo and draw through 2 loops, yo and draw through last 2 loops on hook</em><br />
<em><strong>long-HDC</strong> (it's really just a drop stitch): yo, insert hook into SC directly below the Chain-1 from previous row and draw up a loop to the height of row you are currently working on, yo and draw through all 3 loops on hook</em><br />
<em></em><br />
<em></em><br />
<em></em><br />

There are so many ways to do this, but I started first by joining 16 of my blocks together with an invisible stitch to make the center of my lapghan (shown above). And then I created my border like this:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<strong>Rows 1-3</strong> <em>(in Color G) </em>: SC around entire work (doing 3 SC in center of each corner), join, Chain 1</div>
<strong>Row 4-5 </strong><em>(in Color D) </em><strong>:</strong> SC around entire work (doing 3 SC in center of each corner), join, Chain 1<br />
<strong>Row 6 </strong><em>(continuing in Color D)</em><strong>:</strong> SC in first, (Chain 1, skip 1, SC in next) around entire work .... doing 3 SC in the center stitch of the corners, join, Chain 1<br />

</div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"></span><br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">It's best when you have added earflaps to do a border in that same color of the earflaps first, and then another border in the contrasting color. This will give you a better looking edge, taking care of any weird gaps caused by different size stitches. So, chain 1 (after last stitch from earflap) & then SC around entire beanie in that same color, join to first SC. Then change to the contrasting color (Ishowed below how I do that) & SC around entire beanie again (make sure that if you are doing Regular Ties, that you do them at the points of the earflaps starting immediately after changing colors for second border)</span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"></span><br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><u>Changing colors:</u></b> End your last row by starting an SC into last stitch, but do not pull through loops on hook. So with the <b>color your ending</b>: yarn over, insert hook into last stitch, pull up a loop. Then get your <b>second color:</b> yarn over, pull through both loops on hook, slip stitch to first SC of round. Color change complete! Now, Chain 1 with this new color and continue with your border.</span></li>

<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">Cut yarn out of desired colors (1-3 colors) in 36" strands (9 total). Fold in half and grab at the loop that forms at the halfway point. Pull that loop through the ch-4 space from last row on Earflap. Open loop up and pull through the strands left (this makes a sort of knot to keep the braid on there and will double your strands, leaving you with 18).</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">Divide yarn into three groups, keeping in mind how the colors will come out looking, and braid until desired length. Tie another knot to finish off and cut ends so that only about an inch to an inch and a half hang down. **I usually make the braids about 5 1/2 inches long (from knot to knot) for 0-9 months and almost 9 inches long (from knot to knot)</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"> for the bigger sizes**</span></li>

******Credit is given where due, I don't claim any patterns to be mine that are not.<span style="background-color: #f6fbff; line-height: 24px;"> If you use this pattern please link back to Butterfly’s Creations, please do not claim patterns as your own that are not yours.

I made two sets for two different people.....<br />

These took no time at all, so they would make a great last minute addition to a gift if you feel like you're gift is lacking. Make sure you try to do them in colors matching their living/dining room or kitchen. <br />
<br />
As always, I edited the patterns a bit to make them make more sense and to compress them a bit....<br />

<em>(I used size H hook)</em><br />
<br />
Chain 5, join to form a loop<br />
Round 1: Chain 3, (DC 1, Chain 1) 7 times into the loop, DC once more, join the round<br />
Round 2: Chain 1, SC around (into each DC and each Chain 1 space of previous round), join<br />
Round 3: Chain 3, (DC in next, Chain 1) 16 times, DC once more, join <br />
Round 4: Chain 1, SC around<br />
Round 5 (this is where I used a different color yarn for the coasters with a border): (Skip next, DC 5 in next, skip next, SC in next) 7 times, skip next, DC 5 in next, skip next, join<br />
Finish off.<br />
