Hand Crocheted Items!

Welcome to the first Jessiki Reeve Crochet Blog!

I've been crocheting since junior high, taught by mom and self-teaching my way through new projects all of the time! I've always had a creative streak. I graudated from Utah State University in the Interior Design program May of 2009. I love creating things with my hands. I also sew a little, and, of course, drawing. I also create digital files for invites, announcements and cards of all kinds that you can print at your fave print shop! Visit www.serendipitidesign.blogspot.com to see more!


Below are several things I have crocheted and had a lot of fun in the process.


These are some pouches I crocheted to fit ipods, cell phones, etc.

I used my husbands ipod to create the pattern and model. They're great because they're soft and won't scratch anything. If you're anything like me, I throw everything in my purse and naturally, the keys will scratch something important.

This is another pouch I created - the Anything Pouch. it's great for electronics (digital camera, phone) sunglasses, makeup, or Anything else you can think of. My inspiration for this was my digital camera. I can never find a bag I like that will keep it dry and safe that will also stay around my wrist. When the drawstring is closed it can fit snuggly around the wrist and THUS it won't go anywhere! Again, it keeps things from getting scratched.



These are pouches embroidered with yarn to create Monograms



These are two of my favorite flowers to crochet and embellish. They'r great on hats, bags, etc.




This is my favorite newborn hat to crochet. I absolutely adore the ears.


'My Favorite Headwrap'

The title says it all. It's comfortable, one size fits all (can be made smaller to fit younger girls), ties in the back, keeps hair from going all over the place and super cute!

An example of a hat with one of my flowers:

A Two-Tone hat great for all ages!


A Solid Granny Bag (Granny Square)


My Favorite Bag:

This is the like the previous picture, but made with color alternating rows. I use my bag all the time.

This is my neice modeling a bella butterfly beanie. She absolutely adores it. She insisted that the first one I crocheted (too small for her head) should be given to her cabbage patch doll. What a girl!



This is my Army Brat Cap, super cute with the accent button.






I hope that there will be plenty more to come! I'm currently in the process of making a bag for my husbands co-worker. Her daughters birthday is this month and she requested I make a bag to hold her scriptures for church. I'm nearly done and SO pleased with the results!
