More Crochet Projects

I have made a few more crochet projects,

thought I would share what I have made

This one is a hat and scarf set that I made for my

9 year old niece. I have made scarves before

but this is the first time I have made a hat,

and it was actually really easy.

Here is a link to the video that I used

She has a great step by step tutorial.

Hat Tutorial

Here are a couple of headbands,

these are a first for me also.

Again, they were very easy to make.

Here are the links to the videos I followed

to make these.

Yolandas' videos are great!

Very easy to follow, she even has videos

to help you learn to crochet.
