So it’s been 6 weeks since I began my break. And if I’m being honest, which you know I am…I have really found myself again, or at least started to. I have had a few little health issues, which the majority have been resovled and tomorrow I hope I will get the all clear tomorrow...
It’s time for me to take a break. I think my body is telling me I’m doing too much and it’s starting to take a toll on my health. I’m a ‘yes’ person, a people-pleaser, and I’ll always put you first. That’s not working out so well for me at the moment, so it’s time...
The very first Crochet Tournament in Australia came to an end on Monday night. I probably should have spoken about it prior to this, but you know, life gets in the way, throw in everything else that’s going on in 2020 and well….that’s why I’m writing about it now lol. Earlier in the year, I...
‘Yes, of course, I’d love to!’. Those were the words in my reply to Ana from Oneskeinoflove Crochet when she asked if I would like to be a part of her blog tour. ‘Cosy Crochet Blankets to Snuggle Under’ is a must-have book for your crochet book collection. There is something for everyone inside the gorgeous cover....
As promised, here is the FREE pattern for squaring up your Floral Dreams motifs! But first, I hope everyone is staying safe and healthy and still managing to move about and look after your mental health too! I’m super excited about this version as it creates an whole new look for the blanket and also...
I was needing another mindless project on my hook that I could pick up in between designs. So I came up with this little 4-round repeat, which I’m making into a scarf. It’s nice and repetitive but requires a little thinking to get started lol. I hope you can join in and make your own....
Do you want to crochet the free coaster pattern? Read till the end, because it’s all yarn and crochet talk and we all love that, right? Stylecraft’s newest range of yarn is ‘Naturals’. A Bamboo/Cotton blend (60%/40%) weighing 100g and 250 metres in length. It is one of the softest yarns I’ve worked with and...
Apologies come first as I’ve been super busy with life (I know, how annoying sometimes), that I haven’t had much time to actually sit down and blog. I’ve missed it. So I’m going to start again by saying goodbye. That’s weird but true. YEAR IN REVIEW As my memory isn’t very good, I’m actually going...
For me, as a crochet designer I tend to have favourites… I know this isn’t probably how you should look at your own designs (they kind of feel like my own children – I don’t have an overall favourite, I just have a favourite at that particular moment in time, like ‘Oh wow Charlie is...
I’ve decided to start sharing fellow crochet designers and makers and to spread their beautiful work, because if you’re like me, you love just looking at all things crochet! This post is going to contain three beautiful fellow crocheters, but usually I think I’ll do one person per post. I hope you (well I know...
