Crochet Pattern - Troll face

Here is a new free filet crochet pattern! I know, I know. I'm a bit late on this one. I just forgot about them. Sorry!
The great thing about these patterns, is that you could easily use them to cross stitch the design, too!

This is another one of the meme patterns I did along with the previous free pattern I posted, Philosoraptor. This one is the troll face!

Here is the pattern for it:

Crochet Pattern - Philosoraptor

Crochet Pattern - Oregon Trail

I know I previously stated that I would have this pattern up on the 1st, but since I plan to stitch this weekend (my test will be over with!), I will most likely have a progress update for Monday. So, I decided to go ahead and post this pattern a little early! 

One of my favorite games growing up was Oregon Trail. I loved it whenever we were able to play this in the computer lab at school.
Enjoy the pattern! 

I came up with this filet crochet pattern based on the old Oregon Trail wagon.

Crochet Patterns - PPDC

Something that most of my followers may not be aware of, is that I like to make filet crochet patterns. I have made a couple actual crochet items, but my favorite thing to do is make the patterns themselves. I even have the software to help me make them more professional looking.

My first pattern that I made was one that I wanted to make for my then-boyfriend (now husband).  is a big Star Wars fan, so I made the pattern for, and crocheted, a Darth Vader face doily. I posted pictures of it online, and started to get people asking me if I had a pattern available.Thus started my pattern-making.

I bought my software and started listing patterns in my Etsy store. I recently had to remove a bunch of patterns from my store, but I am still creating new patterns to list online, and I will show pictures of new ones from time to time.

The reason for this post is because I want to start posting some patterns for free here in my blog.
I have several patterns that I cannot list in my Etsy shop, so I want to offer them for free to everyone. I did want to wait a while after pulling those patterns before offering them for free, and I believe it has been a sufficient amount of time.

My first offering for everyone is going to be the Pan Pacific Defense Corps logo, from Pacific Rim. Here is an image of the logo:

Here is my doily version:
