How is this for a set of Zs?

Zebra striped alphabet letters

While out of town visiting my dad I had the chance to work on letter patterns. I needed to make a Capital O and a lowercase g for April for my youngest daughter’s preschool class. I managed to finish those as well as writing up the patterns for Capital U, Capital Z, and lowercase z. Now I just need to get them into my computer and I will be that much close to my goal of finishing up these letter patterns completely.

I made the Zs in zebra stripes because I was running out of color choices for the letters to send to preschool. Doing stripes made finishing them off take quite a bit more time, but I think it was worth it.

I have been hard at work this month trying to finish up my alphabet letter crochet patterns. My goal is to finish them by the end of the month so that I can treat myself to a birthday present for finishing this large project. I am currently down to needing seven more capital letters and four more lowercase letters, with a few just waiting to finish the testing process and get listed.

I had mentioned in an earlier post that I planned to offer the E, I, and O for free on my blog. Now that I am nearing the end of my letter pattern writing I realize now is the time to offer the O. So, just click on the following link to download the Capital O pattern:

No Excuses, but some New Patterns

Capital I, version 2

Heart Tawashi Scrubbies

I really dislike reading excuses why bloggers have not posted anything new in so long, so I will just quickly mention that after two broken toes, Swine Flu, and Christmas craziness, life is finally getting back to somewhat normal and I will attempt to resume my blog.

On that note, I have managed to update the free pattern for the Capital I for those of you who want a top and bottom on it.

In addition, I have a Valentine Special Limited Time Offer of a Heart Tawashi Scrubbie Pattern. You can purchase this pattern in either my ArtFire shop or my Etsy shop.

I also hope to have more letter patterns coming soon. Right now I have one being tested and hope to get a few more out to be tested this week. If you have a particular letter that you would like, please let me know and I will work on that one next. Also, I am in need of more pattern testers to help me finish my letter patterns in a more timely fashion. Comment on this post if you are interested and I will get back to you soon.

New Free Pattern for Lovely Little Letter

New free crochet pattern for Capital E

I have been thinking about which letters to make the free ones of my Lovely Little Letters. So far, I had made the Capital I free since it was simple and someone could get a good idea of the size of the letters by making it. I have finished up several more patterns recently and decided it was time to offer another pattern for free.

Suddenly, an idea occurred to me. This idea shows that I am the parent of young children. I had a children’s song pop into my head with the refrain, “E, I, e, i, O.” So, my plan is to offer these patterns for free. Right now I have the I and am now offering the E for free. Look for the e, i, and O coming soon.

The download for the Capital E can be found here:

Other patterns can be found on my Crochet Patterns page.
