Crocheted Bead Earrings

  
I've been wanting to make these earrings for quite a while.  I finally got around to buying the jewelry-making supplies and got to it.  They're super easy and the pattern is FREE! I've posted the free pattern on my Ravelry store

 

Now my Ravelry Store can be accessed by non-Ravelry members.  Take a look.

Crochet Thread Cup Cozies

I designed these cozies to add a little class to my occasional coffee-to-go instead of the paper sleeves they give you at the coffee shop.  I had previously made some cozies using worsted weight yarn, but the result was too bulky-feeling for my taste.

The cozies use either #10 or #3 Crochet Thread.  The multi-colored one uses #3 size thread.  When my wife saw it, she asked if I could make one in Red and White to match Starbucks new "Holiday" cup.  I didn't have #3 thread in those colors, so I made her one using #10 thread from my stash.

I've added the pattern, which contains versions for both thread sizes, to my Ravelry and Etsy Stores.
