crochet headband for custom order

Yet another long time time between updates.  Ugh.  I have good excuses, though, but I doubt you want to hear them.  Suffice it to say that work and school are still kicking my butt.  For example, I had a week to write a 10-15 page paper.  YAY!  And next week, I will be across the country for a business trip, making my life even nuttier.

Anywho, I want to pop in and show you some pictures of a headband I completed for a custom order a few weeks back.  The picture quality is pretty bad for some reason, but hopefully you get the idea:

The yarn was Vanna's Choice and the crocheted headband pattern is one of my very own - available for free right here on my blog :)

custom creation: red crochet slouch hat

Hi, everyone!  I'm back after a brief and stressful hiatus.  Something tells me there will be quite a few of those this semester.  Silly classes are going to kill me.

Anyway, I've just completed a small batch of custom orders, and here's one of my favorites: a really cute and simple slouch hat in one of my favorite colors - bright red!

The yarn I used was Red Heart Soft Touch, and it lives up to its name.  It's quickly becoming one of my favorites.

I definitely want to make a bunch more of these slouch hats for my shop.  They're simple and quick to make, but look so awesome when they're done.  It's just something I improvise each time, but I'm loving the band I make on the bottom, as well.  Go me.

Let me know if you're interested in a written pattern for this hat and I'll try to type one up this weekend.

Hope you're all having a great week!
