New Pattern Available: Star Trek Science and Medical (Blue) Insignia Pillow

Sorry it's taken me so long, but I finally managed to find time to finish this pattern.

My finished Star Trek Science and Medical Insignia Pillow. 

The full set. 

It took a while to finish each pillow, but I've had a lot on my hooks lately. The color work is the only thing that really takes much time at all. You can download the pattern here: download now  

As always, please let me know if you come across any problems with the pattern and post your pictures of your projects. 

New Pattern Available: World of Warcraft Banner Pattern

I've finally written up the pattern for my World of Warcraft banner. It can be found as a free download in my Ravelry store. download now

I tried to explain the dowel rod assembly as best I could. To hang the dowel rods I would probably use something like these command hooks. They are inexpensive and should easily hold the banner up.


If you have any problems, please don't hesitate to ask and let me know so I can try to clarify.

If you like this pillow, don't forget to check out the Star Trek Command (Yellow) pillow. Stay tuned for the next one. 

Star Trek Yellow Command Pillow

Here are pictures of the finished Star Trek Command (yellow) Pillow. I'll post the pattern and chart when I'm finished writing it up. The finished size is 14" and worked entirely in single crochet stitches.

I'm in the process of working on the other two pillows. Red (Security) and Blue (Science). I'll post those patterns when I'm done with them as well.

Materials used: Red Heart Yarn - gold and black; I Love This Yarn (From Hobby Lobby) - Buttercup; and 1 14" pillow form.

World of Warcraft Horde Banner

Here are a few pictures of the World of Warcraft Horde Banner, which is done entirely in single crochet stitches. (I will post the pattern and chart when I'm done writing it up.)

I used two wooden dowel rods to hold the shape and for hanging. The top dowel rod is 25" and the bottom (hidden behind the banner just above the middle point) is 18". The top one is longer than the width of the banner to make it easy to hang it up. The bottom rod is just to provide the bottom some weight to maintain its shape.

I'll be working on the Alliance banner soon. 

Geek inspired crochet gifts

Christmas is always a busy time for me. I try to create unique items to give as gifts for friends and family. Here a few that I gave last year, which I'm hoping to top this year. :)

Mario Brothers power up pillows.

Mario Brothers Yoshi scarf.

Star Wars: The Old Republic Hat and Scarf Set

Geeky Crochet Things

Over the next few days (and weeks) I will be posting some of the very geeky things on my crochet hooks lately. Here's just a few of the projects. Some are finished and some are in progress.
