<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">All 9 designers decided on the stitch together for this round and we chose to create something that we thought each of you - our fans- would enjoy. We chose to work with the Slanted Puff Stitch for it's spring qualities and the fun look of the puff. This stitch is pretty in a single color and it really POPS when using multiple colors. </span><br />

What is spring...its all about the new fun and inspiring new sense of everything that we see. It brings warmth and sun and laughter and a new sense of life... What could I make to bring that all back to you. Using the battle stitch chosen called ...the slanted puff stitch... had me thinking of something light and airy and just fun. What better way then to choose a pattern that reflected that in something my little girl would love and enjoy waring this spring. A tunic tank top ..that's it...that's what she needs...it will be perfect with some cute leggings or some fun shorts. As soon as I finished up the pattern and worked it all together, my daughter was thrilled and could not wait to try it on...She wanted to ware it that day.. of corse not all the finished touches were done yet on the tunic tank so she had to wait the next day. The next day came and she was ready for it and it was ready for her... This tunic tank is soft and fun and so easy to slip on and off and how cute are the buttons and tie waist?...perfect for any little girl to feel like she can do anything or become anything this spring with her new fun spring top.. Of to school she went and all day she said there were girls coming up to her and saying how cute her top was and how fun it would be if there mom could make one for her...or better yet they said, maybe your mom could make me one..She lit up with joy as she was the favorite that day with her perfect spring top. You will love making this Penelope tunic top and your little favorite girl will love it too. I hope you enjoyed in the sharing of making this tunic top, I would love to see your design when you have worked one up...Stop by my page on Daisy Hand Mades and share..

Winter is the perfect time for making gifts. With Christmas right around the corner, we've contacted our Battle of the Stitches designers and have put together a list of sales that they are having this weekend. This should help you get a good start (or finish) to some of those holiday gifts!<br />
<br />
If you're looking for a specific shop, I've put them in alphabetical order, but I'm going to highly recommend you check out all these designers because they all have some great designs.<br />

We're excited to show you the crochet stitch tutorial for our Round 10 challenge. As this challenge was held through the month of July, we wanted a great stitch to go with the "Wearable Waves for Autumn" theme. The Ripple Lace stitch is a beautiful stitch that is perfect for this time of year!<br />With 4 row repeats, this stitch pattern can take on several different looks depending on where you choose to change colors. <br /><br />The written stitch instructions are for working the pattern in a solid color of yarn. To make it easier to see the stitch placement in the photos, we used 2 colors and switched them every row. We hope you enjoy the stitch and have fun playing with colors for a variety of design effects! </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Hi everyone. Kate here from <a href="http://www.craftingfriendsdesigns.com/" target="_blank">Crafting Friends Designs</a> and founder of the </span><a href="http://www.battleofthestitches.com/" style="font-size: x-large;" target="_blank">Battle of the Stitches</a><span style="font-size: large;">. </span><span style="font-size: large;">I'm thrilled to see you again! With the start of a new quarter, it's time to start another round of the Battle</span><span style="font-size: large;">. It's crazy that we are already on Round 10! It has been a fun couple of years and a great adventure meeting new crochet designers and getting to know each of them. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Each round, I have 3 other designers join me as admins for the Battle. The challenge wouldn't run as smooth as it does without their help and I sincerely appreciate them! Along with helping behind scenes, each of us design something fun for the ebook along side the challengers. We couldn't ask them to design with a new stitch and theme if we're not willing to do so with them - right? This round, we have chosen a fun stitch for fall and we hope that you will follow along with all 12 challengers and cheer them on. It's sure to be another fantastic ebook full of 16 amazing crochet designs using the same stitch. <br /></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Are you ready to see how designed each project in the Round 9 Challenge of the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/BattleoftheStitches" target="_blank">Battle of the Stitches</a>?<br /><br />At the beginning of April, we asked 10 crochet designers to design something fun based on the "Garden of Life" theme and using the Trellis Waves crochet stitch. Each of them brought out a personal take on the theme and did a great job with the stitch!</span><br />
