Life of a Crochet Addict… Week 3!

September 12, 2025 By Beatrice Ryan Designs Leave a Comment

Welcome back to Life of a Crochet Addict! This is week 3, although it has been a couple of weeks since I have shared… LOL!

Also, if you would like to receive my posts by email, add your email to my list in the Stay Connected box in the top of righthand sidebar(the picture below is what you will see) >>>>>>>>>>>.

**See this box in the righthand sidebar to join!!!!!**

Lots to share and I hope you will enjoy this weeks post! So, to kick it off, I’ll start with the last couple of weeks of crochet!

If you haven’t seen my latest crochet pattern, I released Summertime Striped Shawl! It is a free crochet pattern or you can purchase a paid PDF… Click here for that pattern!

I also started a new poncho pattern, hopefully I will have it available in the next couple of weeks!

I even spent a little time crocheting at Mr. B’s!

I’m still working on this granny square blanket and hopefully have the pattern out by early October!

Of course I have a few other Wip’s hanging around. So with the cooler Fall weather, hopefully I will get some of those finished up! Do you have several Wip’s hanging around???

Now on to some of what my last 2 weeks were filled with!…

This summer has been so much fun! My garden has been producing so many fruits, veggies and flowers! Also, tons of lake time with Mr B! For Labor Day I had a family bbq and lots of time to sit and enjoy it all!

Lake vibe with Mr B

Mr B was feeding the fish Cheetos, he took this pick with the phone under water!

Stayed out until after dark at Whiskeytown Lake!

We played around with our cameras floating on the lake… Caught the Milkyway!

All of the produce was amazing out of my garden, I think my favorite so far were the cantaloups! But, you may wonder what I do with all this food??? I eat as much fresh as I can… I can some into jars and freeze dry the rest!

Roasted Tomatillo’s, Onion’s and Jalapeño’s to make a verde sauce! I was able to freeze dry all the sauce and used some the other day… It was delish!

I made homemade cream of mushroom soup and put it in the freeze dryer. This also turned out delicious!

I made marinara sauce with all my tomatoes… After freeze drying the 40 tomatoes fit into 2 quart jars! Each quart should make approximately 2 quarts once rehydrated. But what I love about freeze drying is I can just take out of the jar what ever amount I want to use and add water and it is ready. I could make a huge spaghetti dinner or just a single serving for myself!

This is 5 trays of freeze dried items, 3 trays are the tomatoes that I turned into marinera powder, then 2 trays of squash!

I picked my rhubarb and strawberries and made jam! Pineapple/Strawberry/Rhubarb, Strawberry/Rhubarb and Pineapple/Rhubarb/Jalapeño… And yep, if you noticed one jar has a label saying Chicken Pot Pie Soup… I just put a new label on all the jars after they cooled..

Who doesn’t love flowers… this year I have had amazing bouquets from my garden!

Home and health wellness

This week I would love to share a warm, cozy addition to my pantry… Lono Life Broth! The chicken is my favorite, but they have tons of flavors. Each box contains individual packets, all you do is mix one packet with 8 oz of hot water and you have a delicious broth to drink or add to you favorite foods. I drink it often, it has 10 grams of protein and only 50 calories per serving(8oz), however I also add it to my soup as the base, or other meals to add great flavor1

You can get this on Amazon… I have mine as a set delivery subscription so I never run out, but you can buy 1 box at a time…! Click here to head to Amazon to get yours!

This upcoming week I will be doing more food preserving, headed to Mr B’s again for more end of season lake time, then finishing off at my dearest friend Rebecca’s Spa Anniversary Party! And, of course trying to finish a couple more Wip’s!!!

I hope you have a blessed week and get to crochet something wonderful!

And, Don’t forget to follow me on my social media sites for more fun! And, most important you share your creations

Summertime Striped Shawl~Free Crochet Pattern!

September 4, 2025 By Beatrice Ryan Designs Leave a Comment

Summertime Striped Shawl~Free Crochet Pattern! This is an easy and quick crochet pattern that uses 2 cakes of self-striping yarn. Wear it as a shawl or fold it to use as a scarf.

Perfect for cool Summer evenings or a great way to brighten up any outfit!

And what is especially great, it is a 2 stitch project. Just Single Crochet Stitches and Treble Crochet Stitches!

Make sure to add to your Ravelry Favorites… Click Here to head to Ravelry! This pattern is free here on my website or a Paid PDF version for $2.99 USD is available on Raverlry

Materials:

Yarn:

814 Yards of Worsted Weight Yarn ~ Recommend using Self-Striping Yarn or Solid one color. I used Caron Cinnamon Swirl Yarn in the Color Lollypop. This is 407 yards each cake, so I used every bit of 2 cakes for a total of the 814 yards including making the tassels at the end of the project! No waste or leftovers to store!

Hook:

I Hook

Additional Items:

Scissors, tape measure, stitch markers

Where to buy your supplies:

You can find this yarn at Michaels Craft Store(The color I used is exclusive in the store). Or you can shop online Click here to shop Amazon or Click here to head to Yarnspirations for something similar.

Size:

80″ long(not including tassels) x 18″ wide – Blocked

Stitches:

St – Stitch
Ch – Chain
Sk – Skip
Sp – Space
Sc – Single Crochet
Trc – Treble Crochet
Dec Sc – Decrease Single Crochet(insert hook, YO, pull up loop in each of 2 sts indicated, YO, pull through all 3 loops, decrease made)
YO – Yarn Over

Instructions:

Let’s get started!

Tip: The first and last stitches can be hard to see especially when increasing or decreasing at the beginning and end of the row. Place stitch markers to help and occasionally make sure to do stitch counts

Increase Section

Start with a ch 2

Row 1: Sc in 2nd ch from hook. = 1 sc

Row 2: Ch 1, turn, 3 sc in st. =3 sc

Row 3: Ch 1, turn, 2 sc in 1st st, sc in next st, 2 sc in last st.=5 sc

Row 4: Ch 1, turn, sc across. = 5 sc

Row 5: Ch 1, turn, 2 sc in 1st st, sc in next 3 sts, 2 sc in last st. = 7 sc

Row 6: Ch 1, turn, sc across. = 7 sc

Row 7: Ch 1, turn, 2 sc in 1st st, sc across to last st, 2 sc in last st. = 9 sc

Row 8-59: Repeat rows 6 & 7 (increase rows pattern) By row 59 you will have 61 sc *hint* for the decrease section, every odd row you will have a st count of the row number + 2 sts(like row 7 has 9 sts). You should do a st count every few rows
