I am excited to post these pictures! Blame the crappy photography on my lame kitchen lighting, but blame the crocheted awesomeness on me! I’m pretty happy with all that I got done this weekend! Wanna see?! I do!!!
- I made the toque on the left for a friends son. She saw Dekkers toque in a picture (on the right) and asked the exact same toque. But I need opinions from readers please! Dekkers is the littler one. Is the larger one too big for a four year old??
- My first ever mitts. They’re enormous. I made them for Brady. His only complaint was that the thumbs are tight. But they’ll stretch I think. These were super straight forward and I will definitely make them again. Their super long cuffs seem like they’ll be suuuper warm. Oh, and believe it or not, this picture was the better of the two I took.
- I hope my customer likes this toque!!! She asked for checkers, and I really couldn’t figure out a way to make that happen! So hopefully this counts! It is a black slouchy toque with alternating hot pink puff stitches. It is super soft!
- Lastly, sooo many slippers! All for different people. I confess, I had made a few of the soles before the weekend so I didn’t technically do all the work at the retreat. They also aren’t perfect right now because I haven’t attached the tabs or buttons yet. I find that part the trickiest about slippers, getting them in exactly the right place, and then to get them in the same place on both slippers. Hmmm, this caption is super negative. I’m happy with how they came out! They’ll look great when they’re done, and they’ve helped me enjoy making slippers more! I was pretty scared of them not that long ago.
Done and done! I still have a few things to crochet in the near future, so if you don’t see your “order” or request up here, it is still coming! Or feel free to remind me. Or order something! I don’t have a long list or things to make and I’m gonna just start making random stuff soon.
What a fabulous weekend. I can’t wait to go again 🙂 I was one of the only people that had never been to the craft retreat before, and definitely the only one who didn’t come with friends. I actually felt completely out of my element, but I grew into it quickly and made friends. Who is coming with me next year?!
Hey Hailey, I just read this post now. I love your crocheting. I think the hat might be a little too big but I am sure they can grown into it. Also, Carter has a small head so I may not be a good judge. Just wondering how I go about ordering some stuff. And what your prices are. All this stuff is awesome, I especially like the black and pink toque.
Ordering can easily just be thru facebook, or here, anywhere 🙂 I’ll message you prices on what you’re interested in! My list of orders is thinning so I’ll be looking for things to make. Let me know! Thanks for reading, I really appreciate it!

Hey Hailey! I’m 8 months late with my comments bc I actually just started following your blog and I figured I should start at the beginning! But I just wanted you to know that your crocheting us beautiful! I absolutely love the slouchy toque and the pink and black one! And I so wish I knew how to crochet like you! Haha all I can do is the plain toques that we learned at Redberry. And I sure don’t do them well haha. Anyway I don’t want you to feel discouraged because you are extremely talented even if people aren’t replying! I wish I could have sent this 8 months ago to cheer you up!
Oh my goodness, are you seriously reading back every post from the beginning?! Thats so awesome 🙂 And thanks for being so complimentary too. I hit a bit of a crocheting wall after Christmas but I’ve just recently climbed back on board to make things for baby! Its nice to be back. Thanks again, this comment came at a perfect time to cheer me up 🙂
