Easter will be here soon, and everyone is busy with their holiday preparations. Your little girls love their new dresses and hats, but they also want their dolls to have new Easter outfits. With this quick and easy pattern, you can crochet an Easter bonnet for each of their fashion dolls using yarn from your scrap basket. They also make cute decorations if your family has an Easter tree.

Owl Eyeglass Holder
Last year I was overwhelmed at the response to my Owl Eyeglass Holder. Because some crocheters aren't familiar with the crocodile stitch, this week I created a video tutorial. This is a simple project for learning the crocodile stitch, and the owl is just so darn cute! Originally it was designed as an eyeglass holder, but it also makes a cute little plush toy.
