Malla Produce Bags · Free Crochet Pattern
You may have noticed that my designs have taken on a more natural, muted vibe lately (something Im totally embracing) but don’t worry – I’m still a huge fan of colour! Mainly this is because I just can’t get enough of making small pouches and bags that match my very neutral and muted home. The…

Bloom Blossom Hand Towel · Free Crochet Pattern
Let’s be honest, one of the best ways to use up leftover yarn is by making hand towels or washcloths, right? If you’re anything like me and have a mountain of cotton yarn that never seems to shrink, a quick towel or cloth project is the perfect fix. Not only is it a great stashbuster,…

Huggy Bag · Crochet Pattern
We need to talk about velour/chenille yarn. Like, we seriously need to discuss it right now. I don’t know about you, but this yarn has been wavering between being the love of my life (it looks gorgeous when it’s crocheted up tightly, for example, just look at those bags) and my mortal enemy (the fluff,…

Toby Tinsel · Free Knitting Pattern
I don’t know about you but Christmas is by far my favourite holiday. I think it stems from the warm memories I have of spending it with my amazing and much-missed grandmother in her warm, cosy, council flat just outside London. Even though she didn’t have a lot of spare cash, she always made her…

No matter if you’re a knit/crochet designer with an XXL following or someone who’s been in the game for a short time, working with brands is, at this point, an almost essential part of being in the crafting community. However, it can be a bit daunting and, at times, feel like a jungle. Like, where…

Creating the Perfect Craft Space · Seven Top Tips for a Gorgeously Creative Area
Although I could point out a ton of flaws in my craft room (the ceiling is super low, it suffers from damp, beetles and spiders seem to love hanging out there, the fact that it’s an attic space and gets as hot as heck in the Summer), I admit that I am mightily privileged. Not…

Can you remember having ‘normal’ problems, like the supermarket being sold out of your dog’s usual food, or your daughter refusing to get out of the bath? I do, and it all seems small…
