HOW TO – Make a Crocheted Rรฉmy
I haven’t even seen the movie Ratatouille yet, but I’m loving SoulCrochet’s cuddly version of the flick’s leading rat, Rémy. She shares her free pattern for this adorably whiskered pal on Craftster. Link.
Kids & Family
Hooded Sweater for Kids
Oh man, I really I wish I could shrink myself down to toddler size, just so I could wear this squirrely hooded sweater! You can purchase a pattern to crochet one of your own (in sizes 12 mos., 2T, 4 or 6) at Pink Willow Designs. Link.
HOW TO – Make a Lidman
Australian crafter and mom Cheryl makes these fun one-of-a-kind “Lidmen” from colorful plastic screwtop lids. She sells her own pre-made Lidmen and friends, but also provides a detailed tutorial so you can make your own. This would be a fun rainy-day activity for the kids, with proper supervision of course.
