So, here I have made another free snood pattern for you! However, I also suggest checking out my free Crocheted Snood Pattern too. Something like a snood is usually crocheted since it is done in the round. Back then, I enjoyed coming up with a fun Crocheted Snood pattern that I offer for free on this site and has been a popular page (with lots of Google traffic on a monthly basis). Although I do crochet from time to time, I admit that when I first decided to make my daughter a snood for her ballet class, I looked for a knitting pattern. Knitting and crochet are clearly different forms of crafting, and some of us just prefer needles or hooks (or hooks to needles, whatever floats your boat). I find it interesting that many of us create a comfort zone that defines or confines our knitting or crochet work. But before we get to all that, I want to share a great, free snood pattern that I made for my daughter as she wrapped up her latest year of ballet classes. Join me at CreativityinPieces on Facebook to stay informed when I post new and free content on this site. I also have some new jewelry making plans lined up for the summer, along with some intriguing knitting projects. However, I have some great plans for posts this summer as I venture out with my kids over summer vacation! I have started plans for some bird nesting balls, fairy houses and nosegay wall hangers using recycled and repurposed materials form the woods. We continue to renovate our “new” house (new to us as of last year) and I continue to chase and shuttle our 3 kids all over creation. As always, things are crazy around my household.
