The patterns for my latest designs for Caron and their Simply Soft ad, are now available on their website! Get ’em for free, by clicking on the text links below.
The Whirlwind Wrap is perfect for the gal-on-the-go. It’s crocheted using the Bullion Stitch (see how-to video below) and has a buckle embellishment that adds both a little funk, and practicality. Nab the yarn for this project here!
The Tuxita tunic is a versatile layering piece for baby, that’s sized for 6 mos-6 years. It’s adorable worn as a tank with sandals, over jeans and boots, or with tights and an undershirt. Nab the yarn for this project here!
I got them off of freepeople.com. They show them in black there, but they have both colors. ๐

Vickie, Just a quick note to say “Thank you”. I am a novice but managed to ‘whip’ up your wrap (in black) for my daughter. Since she participates in medieval fairs, theatre and such activities, we closed it with some antique clasps. She loves it and to me that is all that counts. Thank you for sharing the pattern and for making it accessible even for a novice like me! dwarfy
Oh, that’s so great. Thanks for the note. Oh, and please upload a picture of your daughter modeling the wrap to the Caron Flickr group: http://www.flickr.com/cuckooforcaron ๐

#tbt October 2019. That time when @madebylondon and I both had @abramsbooks published at the same time, and crocheted murals of our covers to take on tour.
#latergram Sure, weโre all knitters and crocheters over on Stitchwell Social Club, but those arenโt our only topics we delve into as a community. The first discussion of our Feminist Book Club โ moderated by member Mylynka, a history and gender studies professor โ focused on the 17thโcentury fuel behind the Witches of Scotland timely, modern-day movement. I canโt wait for the next one!
This book club is accessible through all levels, including the free plan, of Stitchwell Social Club membership. Join us today through the link in my bio, or by going to http://www. vickiehowell.com/stitchwellsocialclub ๐๐ฝ
#2008 Once upon a time, @lifetimetv hired me to design and host video tutorials for a few, holiday-specific craft projects that ran on their website. These photos are from the shoot โ our then home โ for the Halloween-project episode.

Hi Vickie – nice to have the tutorial – looks like fun. Thanks!
love the boots, i’ve been searching for ones exactly like these—from anywhere specific?
I got them off of freepeople.com. They show them in black there, but they have both colors. ๐
Vickie,
Just a quick note to say “Thank you”. I am a novice but managed to ‘whip’ up your wrap (in black) for my daughter. Since she participates in medieval fairs, theatre and such activities, we closed it with some antique clasps. She loves it and to me that is all that counts. Thank you for sharing the pattern and for making it accessible even for a novice like me! dwarfy
