Container Gardening for Beginners

Here’s a nice pattern for a classic towel topper for the kitchen. This hangs nicely off the handle on a stove. A free DIY crochet pattern and project by Donna Wolfe from Naztazia.

Here’s a crochet stitch that produces a nice shell stitch. It’s a relatively basic stitch that works nice for a blanket, scarf, shawl, and more. There is a nice lace effect formed by V stitches on one row, with the shells or fans above on the next row.

Here is a fun crochet flower that looks good on a hat, headband, shawl, bag, and more. Each petal is made separately and joined in the center ring. Stitches used include the reverse single crochet as well as single crochet, half double crochet, double crochet, and treble crochet. A DIY crochet project by Donna Wolfe from Naztazia.
