This is not a crochet blog
So it is my privilege to release the last pattern of the Geometry and Texture MAL. Lilla Björn Crochet and myself have now released 6 patterns in 6 weeks and I feel a little relieved and a little sad that this MAL is over now. But above all I feel very happy and honored that... Continue Reading →

So my friends in the Netherlands and long term cooperation partner Scheepjes released a new yarn, or to be more precisely a new yarn series, or to be more precisely it’s not only a new yarn series: The 167 year old company has, after releasing the Scheepjes Terrazzo yarn (70% Recycled Mulesing Free Wool x...

As usual, things take a lot more time as planned and expected. I really am sorry that the pattern is not yet out there, but at least I can show you the finished wrap. It is crocheted in the "one-row" mosaic technique which means that you do not turn at the end of every row.... Continue Reading →
