Happy (late) Fathers Day! I hate to go the super boring typical road of buying dad a tie on this special occasion, but crocheting a super awesome bow tie from scratch with all of your homemade love is totally different. Mostly because it will be harder for him to hang himself with it after you’ve gifted him yet another tie. Maybe that’s just my fathers sense of humor though. I’m sure other peoples fathers are slightly more…normal.
