I've been a hard hooker! (NOT like that!)

I've been keeping myself busy with my crochet hook! I wanted something for my youngest son to wear for Halloween but am REALLY on a budget! My BFF Kelly @ Knittingandthings had recently sent me a HUGE box of yarn.


Said HUGE box:




I found some black yarn in there & thought... I could see Justin wearing a BAT hat! Scoured the internet & couldn't find a pattern for what I was looking for.  A black beanie with bat wings & bat ears.  So, being the crafty me, I found a beanie pattern I liked, adapted it to fit Justin's head & kept out the parts I didn't like, added the parts I wanted.  Next, I found a pattern for kitty ears (because I couldn't find bat ears!) and thought I could make them a tad smaller than what was pictured.  Then, the hard part was finding bat wings!  I found a pattern for a bat amigurumi figure & adapted the wings to fit what I wanted.  Put it all together & this is what you get!




Yay for my little boy's bat hat!  I'm so excited to see how he looks!  My husband and oldest son say it looks like a moose!  Ugh! NO!  He's so cute with it on!


I guess I'm going to have to put some make up on his nose (black) and maybe make some fangs for it!?


Now, I'm obsessed with looking at hat patterns!  I really want to make some cute little Santa hats for kids!  I'm now taking custom orders for the kidlets for the Holidays!  I will be selling these hats for $18 shipped!  So, email me at Craftyscreations@gmail.com if you want to put your order in today!  Hurry before I get too busy!

Much Love,
