This is not a crochet blog
So here is the thing... I did not keep the blog super updated all the time. In fact I think blogging is kind of annoying and I know that most of you people are not here to read about my personal stories. You are here to get a free pattern, right? So I will just... Continue Reading →
Hi again, It was a while ago that I updated this blog. Time is tight when you are a father of two wild daughters. Finally I found the time to write the final pattern in the "Nomad by Fate" series.

The pictures were great and I was really looking forward to crochet this pattern. I was so blown away that I did not even realize, that it was a knitting pattern. I am not... Continue Reading →
Sometimes life writes the most fantastic stories. Here is in my humble opinion one of them: When I moved to Sweden in 2013 I lost contact to a few of my friends. Not to my closest friends of course but a few people I knew from hanging out, skateboarding or simple pub nights just disappeared.... Continue Reading →
