Pinterest Roundup – Crochet
As I mentioned earlier this week, I’ve recently learned how to crochet. So far, I’m totally loving it – its relaxing and a great activity for car rides/planes/watching TV shows with the hubby. Here’s a collection of some of my favorite inspiring crochet projects from pinterest that make me want to improve my skills, including what made me want to learn to crochet in the first place. You can view my entire pinterest crochet board here.
This is where it all started:
I am so in love with this ‘megadoily’ rug. My crocheting so far has basically been practice for trying to make one of these in the future.
And a few more fun projects:
I think this trim would add a lovely handmade touch to any of several items – I plan on trying it out in the next couple weeks.
I love doilies, but at first I had a hard time coming up with a good way to display them. I think these pillows are great.
These snowflakes are another great take on traditional doilies. I think they would make amazing christmas tree ornaments or decor.
Amigurumi is another adorable crochet project. This tree is so, so cute.
This amigurumi pi sign is so cute and nerdy – two of my favorite things. (Side note – we had table numbers at our wedding, and one of them was pi!)
One thing I would have never though about myself is crochet jewelry, but look how lovely and sophisticated this necklace looks!
As usual, you can browse the rest of my pinterest crochet board here with lots of other lovely project ideas and tutorials. If you liked this post, you can find more pinterest roundups here.
I’m sharing this at some of these places.
Which of these is your favorites? Have you done anything similar? Do you have any other fun crochet projects to share?

I LOVE that giant rug! I’m an amateur crocheter and I wish I could make that stuff…I’m still stuck on dishrags
I have been eyeing that rug for a while now. It is so neat looking.

I remember making long beaded crochet necklaces when I was a young girl. It was the 70s. I wore a fringed vest. What can I say? Love that you had pi as a table number at your wedding. That is SO COOL. Wonderful finds – I’m especially drawn to the snowflakes.
You find some great inspirations.
I love this huge doily carpet.
