Fingerstashes

Fingerstache

A mustache that's drawn on the side of your finger and then held up under your nose. - Urban Dictionary



The finger moustache tattoo, otherwise known as the "fingerstache", is a tattoo of a stylized moustache on the index finger. The finger is then placed between the nose and the lips, simulating a moustache. - Wikipedia
These were made as a gift and for fun. I am sure I will make more in the future. The pattern is called It's a moustache, for your fingers! and it is located on Ravelry. They were made with random scraps I had handy and then cleaned and blocked. Once dry the top and bottom of each square are sewn together with enough room to slide an index finger.

Hermione the Unicorn

I was able to try out the Hermione the Unicorn pattern by Dawn Toussaint during a Crochet-A-Long in Ravelry in the Cal With Dawn Toussaint group.


Adventures in Celtic Filet Testing

I was able to be one of the testers for these patterns by Patricia Bishop using the Free Pattern Testers group on Raverly.

Yellow - Celtic Tree of Life Filet Crochet
Purple -  Celtic Trinity Knot Filet Crochet
Green - Celtic Shamrock Filet Crochet










These were fun charts to follow. It took me a little bit to get into the grove, but I am extremly happy with the results. The last one took the longest since it was the largest (26inx21in), but they all turned out beautiful and were easy to make.
