I love when Friday rolls around and I get off work (Billing Supervisor for an Internet Company)… I whirl through the house and do a quick clean up… Then it’s time for WEEKEND CROCHET!! I sit in my comfy chair,,, Turn a movie or my favorite TV show on… and start crocheting!!! I have so many projects on my list… Currently I have 4 design patterns on my list,,, Each in a different stage of the process.. This week I am releasing a new blanket… Here is a sneak peek!!

Free Pattern Coming This Week!!

I also have some cute earrings coming out soon, a hat and…. The next Amazing Grace Pattern!!!!

.

Now on to the Free Crochet Pattern Review!! Earlier this week I posted a fun pattern to my Facebook page… Everyone loved it.. So this weekend when I sat down to crochet… I worked up 4 of these great dishcloths!! The pattern is Simply Square Log Cabin Dishcloths by Deborah Ellis… The pattern was easy to follow and worked up very quickly… and one of the best parts of this great pattern,,, I was able to use up my scraps of cotton yarn!! So far everyone who I have shown them to fell in love… Well worth trying!! Click Here to head over to the Free Pattern!!

Winter Crochet Blankets….

November 17, 2013 By Beatrice Ryan Designs 1 Comment

.

The cool crisp season is here!… I have been working on 3 blankets for the upcoming winter season,,, I worked on them in between writing the Amazing Grace Pattern Series… Last night I finally had time to put the final touches on two of them and snap some pictures… These two blankets are headed over to my Etsy Shop later today!!! Both blankets turned out perfect! When I began both of them,,, I wasn’t sure of the final result and I hope they will both be scooped up by someone who will love them!

.

The first blanket I call Pewter and Berries. It is a Granny Ripple… Very simple, yet very striking! I used Red Heart With Love Yarn and it turned out soft and cozy. The blanket measures 70″ x 56″… A perfect winters blanket!

The second blanket is for baby… this is a Ziggy Zaggy, Yellow and Purple Blanket… I used Lion Brand Pounder… Great soft yarn for baby! It measures 36″ x 38″… It is gender neutral in yellow and purple…

.

I have one more blanket to join and put the edging on… Hopefully I will get to that soon! But in the meantime… I needed to whip up something quick… So I made these great ballet style slippers that were featured over on my Facebook page in my daily segment… “Would you wear it… Would you make it???” They were quick to make and very comfortable… If you would like to give them a try… Click here for the free pattern…

Hope you enjoyed my latest creations… Happy crocheting!

A Crochet-A-Long… You decide the project!!!!

November 5, 2013 By Beatrice Ryan Designs Leave a Comment

.

Happy November! I have been tossing around the idea of having a Crochet-A-Long starting in January 2014… Since I am like all of you yarnies… I can’t decide what it will be… I always have tons of work in progress projects! So what better than leave it up to Viewer Choice!!!! You all were so supportive during the voting for the final Amazing Grace Pattern poll… I thought…hmmmm… Lets do another poll!!!!

.

.

So here are my thoughts… Start crocheting in January…I will make a fabulous design for us… You choose what it will be!!!! The winning vote will determine not only the project… but also the length of time! A blanket may take a couple of months… A hat maybe a week… Let’s have some FUN!!!!.

.

.

Voting closes December 15th, 2013

.

Your Vote Counts!

P.S…. Leave comments too!!!!

I am just a small town girl... well, woman! I was born and raised in Mt Shasta California and have raised my three children here in this mountain community. I have the pure joy of also having two beautiful grandchildren.. When I was 10 my grandmother taught me to crochet,,, A Granny Square patten was my first project. Her name was Beatrice Ryan Ramshaw, a tiny Irish powerhouse! All my memories include her crocheting... Tablecloths, slippers, doilies and blankets. As a young woman the bug got me,,, I began crocheting and haven't stopped! 40 years of experience and many beautiful projects under my belt.... Join me in this journey,,, passed down from generation to generation... keeping alive the skills and beauty of Crochet!
