November 21, 2019
I ordered more tulle from Amazon and received it in the mail today. I have not opened the box yet, since I am going to do an unboxing video to share with you when I first open the box and see what all the colors look like, I ordered this set of 20 spools of tulle before, and the last time I ordered this set, there were 20 different colors, so I am hoping that there are 20 different colors in this order too. Be on the lookout for this unboxing in the next day or 2.
I can hardly wait to open it, since I am excited to see all the pretty colors of tulle, since I want to make some more dish scrubbies. And of course, with Thanksgiving coming up, there will be lots of dishes to wash. I needed more tulle, since I wanted to make a great gift to bring to the host and hostess in my family, who will be cooking dinner this year. I plan to make a set of scrubbies with a cute basket to hold the scrubbies, And of course, I will share this tutorial with you when I finish the scrubbies and basket that I make.

Newborn Cardigan Sweater – Part 2
November 21, 2019
I will upload a video in the next day or 2 that will show you how to do the crunch stitch, since that is the stitch that will be used for the sweater in part 2.
There has been a delay in uploading part 2, since I had to make a new video, since after finishing the editing and uploading to Youtube as a test before making it available, there were parts that were too blurry. I tried to edit the parts that were too blurry and was unable to correct the video with editing. I will try finish with all of the re-taping and editing of the parts that were blurry so that I can upload it as soon as possible. I apologize for the delay. Thank you and I hope everyone is having a great day.

Just added written instructions for 3 different size crochet heart appliques. You can also view the video tutorial right on the same page that you will find the written instructions for the heart appliques. The heart appliques in the tutorials were made with 4 ply acrylic yarn. You can also use crochet thread to make the hearts, you will just want to use a smaller crochet hook. You can also use jute twine or fabric strips to make the hearts, you will just want to use a larger crochet hook.
You can make the hearts smaller or larger just by changing your crochet hook to a different size, instead of the size I used in the patterns and tutorials.
Hope you enjoy making lots of crochet heart appliques and would love to hear what project you will use it for.

Crochet Dish Scrubbies Using Tulle
September 21, 2019
Tulle has become very popular to use to make the greatest dish scrubbies. After you start making dish scrubbies with tulle, you most likely will never buy another sponge. Since, I have started making dish scrubbies, I have never purchased another sponge. These tulle dish scrubbies are not only pretty with all of the beautiful colors and patterns. They are fun to make , very effective at cleaning your dishes, easy to clean and make great gifts.
The dish scrubbies can be used over and over again until they fall apart. You can even wash your dish scrubbies in the washing machine. No need to put the scrubbies in the clothes dryer, they air dry very quickly. You can even wash them in the top rack of your dishwasher.
If you want to make a more abrasive heavy duty scrubby, then you can use nylon netting instead of tulle. The tutorials below will work with tulle or nylon netting.
There is poiyester tulle and nylon tulle. The polyester tulle is much softer and not as abrasive as nylon tulle. Polyester tulle is soft and pliable and feels more like fabric, this is the type of tulle that is usually used to make clothing or tutus. You can use polyester tulle to make dish scrubbies, they will just be less abrasive than the scrubbies made with nylon.
When I make dish scrubbies for gifts, I like to make a set that has a dish scrubby using the polyester tulle, one with nylon tulle and one with nylon netting. This way they will have a dish scrubby for all cleaning needs. The polyester scrubby can be used for more delicate dishes, light duty cleaning ( I would not recommend using on dishes made of fine china). Then the nylon tulle scrubby can be used for medium duty cleaning and then the scrubby made with netting can be used for heavy duty scrubbing like pot and pans, of course I would not recommend using them on non stick coated pans.
