Hot off the hook - a flower top

I am so excited to see this finished! Just tied the last knot. 

It is a flower top my daughter asked to make her, with a bare back, with just ties to hold everything in place. 

This is one of those rewarding projects that you can mindlessly work on, and the final result is amazing. I am turning this into a pattern, so stay tuned.

Hope you enjoy it!

Happy Summer!

Happy first day of summer!

We have been having tropical, unbearable heat waves, and we are all at the point of melting. Hope it is much nicer in the corner of the world you are reading this.

May we all have a creative and fulfilling summer!

Boho shrug - pattern release

The bohemian bolero is here. There are two in this collection and I am in love with the sleeves of both. This is something I would wear myself!

I used Ayda's Fabrika yarn, which is a DK yarn,and I completely fell for it! It flew on my hook!

More technicalities in the pattern info. More photos on my model, once she is available.

The pattern is in my shops: etsy, ravelry.

 

How to crochet granny squares - video tutorial

I've made a video on how to crochet a traditional granny square. 

You know how much I love granny squares, and it is a real pleasure designing clothes, bags and blankets using them. 

I hope you find your perfect project to use them!

 

Finshed crochet pieces

 I pulled this off, and even I cannot believe this! I worked simultaneously on several crochet projects and managed to finish them all. 

What's missing is my Secret garden granny square cardigan (because it's being blocked right now), and 3 of my granny square motifs (because they wouldn't be seen if put on top of the pile).

The pile contains boleros, shrugs, cardis and vests. Stay tuned for the (free) patterns.
