Crochet Caron Cakes Crutch Covers
This girl has had more injuries than both of her brothers combined! Ugh! My sweet Zoe was jumping on the trampoline at gymnastics class and landed wrong on her right leg. We just left the pediatric orthopedist and it looks like she broke her tibia.

I figured once Zoe had made her cute little scarf, we were done, but then something fun happened.,. I started to make my own creation and realized it was color pooling! Not in the same way the Caron Simply Soft makes a plaid/argyle pattern, but it ... continue reading
