Super Hero Crochet

Super Hero in Crochet


Crochet can take us many places we thought we would never go. 

For me it was 


I had three little boys that love their super-heroes. I decided to make something to keep their little heads warm for the winter. 

Minion Crochet Hat


First, there came the yellow one:

Bob the Minion in his bright yellow hat




I was reliably told that when you look at this Minion, His left eye is green and his right eye is brown. His name is Bob.  Apparently there are more minions floating around too.

Super Hero Spiderman:

I will have the pattern for this Spiderman beanie available soon.

Crocheted Beanies

Beanies are a quick and easy thing to make. They don't take much yarn, you can make them with a plain or a fancy stitch and you can make them any colour you want. Often it is hard to find something to crochet for our loved males. Beanies often fit the bill. 

This beanie can be for men or women. Just add some vintage buttons
 This beanie is a very plain and easy stitch. It is made with all double crochet stitch. This is also called treble stitch. You can vary the colour of the rows to make it bright.

The rainbow beanie

This pattern is a similar design to the men's beanie. I have changed the colour of the rows, added a shell pattern at the base, and added a crochet flower with a vintage pearl button at the centre.

Beanies can even have ear flaps to keep the ears warm on those cold days. They add a different feel to the woolly hat. They look especially good on little boys but can also suit girls.

Share you beanie with us. I'm sure the designs are endless.

Teenagers can be Amazing

Today I heard a teenage girl being interviewed on the radio. She was a remarkable young lady. At 17 years old she already employs eighty people. Her name is Tavi Gevison.




Talk about an inspiring young lady. She had started her website at the tender young age of 11. Six years later it is still going strong. It is, as one might expect, for teenage girls. She has become known in the fashion world and goes to lots of high fashion shows.

Tavi is still a regular girl, still goes to school, still lives with her Mum and Dad. Still has her own room at home, just like a regular girl. But there is something special about her.

Her site? http://rookiemag.com/
