April shares that she made my Cowl Hooded Poncho which you may find here – https://simplycollectiblecrochet.com/2015/01/cowl-hooded-poncho-free-crochet-pattern/
“I followed the pattern as written for plus size because I wanted a very loose, flowing cape. I used Knit Picks Wool of the Andes Bulky (5) in Navy. It took 7, 100 gram skeins. I will be making more of this in different colors.”
“I loved that this pattern was so easy and worked up so quickly. This is a perfect cape to wear in the car so I don't have to wear a bulky coat. The cowl is especially nice because I can wear it as a cowl, or up as a head covering, and I don't have to carry a hat or scarf for my neck.”

“I use pink Vanna material. I followed the pattern. Didn't chaneed anyou thing. Love the pattern. Since I don't have a bun or pony tail I will give this hat to my daughter.I hope she likes it.” (I bet she does!)
Connie B makes my Striped Stash Buster Blanket found here – https://simplycollectiblecrochet.com/2014/04/striped-stash-buster-blanket-pattern/
What did you do differently?
“This has to be one of my favorite blanket patterns! I had a large box of unwanted Bernat Blanket yarn that I wanted to use in addition to some various scrap chunky type yarns. As I was crocheting along I realized I was going to run out of the chunky color scheme so used two strands of a few worsted yarn colors. Overall very happy with how the blanket came out & already planning another. I used a P hook for this as the Bernat Blanket Yarn is much easier to crochet with a larger hook. Thank you for sharing your pattern!”
What did you love the most about this pattern?
“It was just such a simple & fun pattern to work on, easily accomplished many rows while sipping coffee on the sofa in front of the TV.”

“Very simple and easy to follow!”
Jenifer Burns did the most precious thing with my Cupcake Lovers Beanie and Scarf set which you can find here – https://simplycollectiblecrochet.com/2016/03/adorable-cupcake-lovers-beanie-free-crochet-pattern-infant-adult/
“I used Palette yarn by Knitpicks… Super thin. And made it baby sized. Did just one cupcake on the scarf.”
“So different. I'm always looking for fun stuff to make for my customers. They loved this!” (I bet they did, Jenifer!! I know I do.)
