I have a special treat for you today! I've found over 30 Unique crochet patterns. There's an amazingly random list of unusual crochet items: everything from clothing, to blankets, to animals, to bags, to pillows.
I've separated the patterns into easy or intermediate. If you're a beginner, start by trying out an easy pattern first. If you're ready to learn some new stitches, delve into the intermediate section.

Crochet patterns use abbreviations for the stitches used. If you don't crochet everyday, you might not remember what they stand for. Or maybe you've never learned the stitch before.
Below is a list of what the abbreviations stand for. You can find a more complete list at Craft Yarn Council. After each pattern, I'll include the stitches needed for that particular project.
If you're like me and like to crochet, but only know the basic stitches, it's always helpful to google the stitch. There's always a tutorial on how to do it. I LOVE that I can learn new things so easily!
