It's no secret that I love crochet jewelry!  I've been having a hard time finding new patterns lately, until today!  This wonderful crochet necklace uses the puff stitch, which adds a unique spin, along with beads and embellishments for appeal.  This necklace is so pretty, and a great crochet thread stash buster!

I love crochet home decor and crochet pineapple designs, so when I found this pattern, I became very excited!  This unique crochet clock uses a 12 point pineapple which is perfect for as the background.  The doily is then attached and varnished to the same shape of wooden background and finished off my adding the cock mechanism to the center.  You can find most of these materials at any craft store, however, I think that this would also make a great "re-finish" product.  Do you have an old boring clock laying around?  Why not paint it, and attach this pretty doily?

Using crochet thread and a simple v-stitch you can work up this beautiful mesh style dress.  I would call this an "over-dress" as it looks awesome over a slip dress.  You could also use this as a beach cover up.  I love these crochet dresses, they give off a retro 1970's vibe.
