These patterns are a product of my charitable and gift-making efforts. They are free for your personal use to make items for yourself, gifts, or items to donate to charity.
The patterns on this blog are for non-commercial use only. I make no money from my patterns and ask that you do not use them to make money either.
The patterns with dates prior to 2024 were originally published on my Handcrafting With Love website (www.handcraftingwithlove.net) which I shut down in 2024.
If you find these instructions inspiring or useful, I would love to hear from you. Please let me know if you have problems understanding any of the instructions.

If you need help with crochet basics, please try one of these web sites:
- Crochet Guild of America offers both right and left-handed instructions.
- Crochet Basics at Crochet 'N' More has many abbreviations with instructions for making the stitches.
- The Crochet Guide at Annie's Craft Store covers a wide variety of stitches and crochet information with both video and written instructions for many of the stitches. The page is organized with less common stitches at the beginning of the list, followed by more basic information. For some of the basics, please see
