By the end of today, she’d grown quite a bit.

I’m soooooo excited to finally be working on this design!!!! I’ve been dying to get my hands into it from the time I drew out the graph, and I’ve had to wait two throws to do it it, so you may not be able to see me, but I’m hopping from foot to foot! Can’t wait to introduce you to her in her full form!! But for now, be ready for LOADS of intermediate WIPs as I go along! :)

Joys of crocheting blankets as the weather cools outside? You’re always cozy!

Missed my session at the Mosaic Crochet Summit? Or want to watch it again? It's now up on YouTube: https://youtu.be/dWkNkebj3g0?si=qfcQxNjgk0jrNElG 🧶

Let's Chart! A Guide to Drawing and Reading Mosaic Crochet Patterns walks you through reading a mosaic chart and drawing your own, so you can see the pattern take shape before you pick up your hook. Charts are a gift for visual thinkers, and I hope this gives you the confidence to try them.

Grab a cup of tea, a pencil, and some graph paper, and let me know what you think in the comments. 💛

Safe to say, it’s a kinda autumn! Getting ready for Handmade in Britain at Chelsea Town Hall this November, and I’m back to my Azulejo Throw in true form to its inspiration - blue and silver white.

And she’s finally off the hook!

Thank you BebaBlanket | Daiga Talentiene for this incredible pattern, and the detail with which you’ve written it out. For those wondering, it’s called the Mosaic Lagoon Blanket available on her website.

This feels like the month of mosaic crochet, what with the Mosaic Crochet Summit hosted by Juniper&Oakes Crochet Patterns coming up from 22-24 Sept, and the 5 new patterns I have in my hook. Can’t wait to share them all with you!

I had such a lovely chat with Juniper&Oakes Crochet Patterns the other afternoon as we ready ourselves for the Mosaic Crochet Summit coming up next week. Though we live miles apart, I think it’s safe to say I’ve found a new friend and ally and member of my growing possé of like minded makers! (Yay! Yay!!)

For those of you who haven’t heard of it yet, this is a completely free 3 day summit held online where 15 makers get down to breaking the art of mosaic crochet in to small, coherent, bite size chunks so that any colourwork enthusiast will want to pick up their hooks and get to it immediately!

My talk on Day 2 is all about creating patterns by drawing your own charts; and I know this sounds overwhelming, but I give you the cheat code on how to break it down so you can apply the logic to your own ideas.
