Vickie Howell brings her creative spirit to so many things—her online world, her family, her books, and her appreciation of yarn. Today, we're featuring one of Vickie's easy-as-can-be crochet projects that will give you homemade results with a bit of crochet and a bit or sewing. Her I Felt Square Pillows make homemade home decor so easy.

We can't say enough about the fabulous Lyon Circle Jacket, designed by Kimberly McAlindin. While it may look like a cropped shawl-collared jacket, it’s a much more interesting design. the jacket is started as a ring of four chains joined into a circle.  Kimberley then worked increases, just as you would for the center of many granny squares.  The rounds are continuous, so you just keep going until you get to the armholes. The result is a fabulous all-season stunner.

We celebrate March as National Crochet Month with this charming bunny. Whether your favorite children's story is the Runaway Bunny, Pat the Bunny or Peter Rabbit, our oh-so-sweet flop-eared fella will be the perfect storytime companion to your favorite little one. Since, it's crocheted with just one skein of One Pound yarn, you may find yourself making a whole clutch of bunnies.
