WIPs, or works in progress, we all have them. Personally I have a mountain of WIPs that need to be finished like yesterday! I am actually embarrassed with how many I have.

Rectangle Granny

- November 09, 2016

Recently i made a blanket for my daughter. I didn't want a traditional granny square, as she is tall. So i decided to make a rectangle. Now there are plenty of patterns and charts out there for granny rectangles, but none were appealing to me. So i sat down and created my own. This is based on how i was taught the granny square by not chaining between clusters. This pattern is addictive. Important notes This pattern has step by step photos to help you along the way. Pattern is written in US terms . This pattern can be made in any weight yarn Use the hook size that matches your yarn weight, for example dk/8ply/#3 yarn i use a 4mm hook and aran/10ply/#4 yarn i use a 5mm hook. stitches used - double crochet (treble in UK), chain, slip stitch Foundation: chain 25 (or a mutliple of 3+1) Row 1: In the 4th chain from the hook, make 2 double crochet, chain 2, 3 double crochet (first 3 chain counts as a stitch) Skip 2 chain, 3 do

Squared Waffle

- November 17, 2016

For months i have been wanting to develop the waffle stitch into a square pattern, because let's face it, i am lazy and rather a center start square over a chain start. So over the weekend i was trying once more and it finally worked. There was a formula i had figured out. This formula had to match up with the stitch count i needed for the traditional waffle to make the 'box'. Once i had worked it out i could not resist but post my excitement into a crochet group. The response was more than i expected! with over 600 likes and 100 comments, i set out to write the pattern down. With 3 lovely testers helping me, it has been one of my quickest written and tested patterns. With lots of editing, it is now available. If you would like your FREE PDF copy, you can get it HERE This pattern has pictures to help you along the way, and if you get stuck your more than welcome to contact me on my Facebook page. With this pattern you can make a blanket, squares

Summer Blossom Granny Square

- March 22, 2018

Summer, the time of year where mother nature is at her busiest. The bees are collecting pollen, the birds are looking after their young and flowers are now in full bloom. There is also the risk of Bush fires which can destroy a lot of vegetation, but out of that destruction new life comes about. Here is Australia, many of the native plants require fire or smoke to be able to germinate. Seeing the beauty after destruction helps us appreciate nature a little more of how she can overcome adversity. Summer Blossom has been designed to be a simple granny square, but at the same time learn some new stitches along the way. With just one change, Summer Blossom is transformed, just like the burnt landscape of a bush fire coming back to life. Don't be afraid to embrace her beauty, let her encourage you. Many will say that the stitches are hard, but really they are simple. In the following pattern, there are step by step photos to help you along the way so you can emb

Maid Of Honour Pattern Release and CAL

This week i released the first pattern for my wedding series, Maid of Honour. The combination of a semi lace body with a lacy shell border really makes this pattern delicate but classy. Although designed with 4ply/fingering/#1 weight yarn, this pattern can easily be made with 8ply/dk/#3 weight yarn or 10ply/aran/#4 weight yarn. There are instructions within the pattern to alter the size if you don't wish to have an enormous shawl. Using 4ply/fingering/#1 weight yarn the shawl measures, 66 Inches (168cm) x 32 Inches (81cm) once blocked. The sample above has been made with Wolltraum My Melody in Wild Horses, 200g/760m (purchased from Blayney Sew and More here in Australia) This pattern has been fully tested by some wonderful ladies. Kirsty of Mumma AKA Caron Cakes - Strawberry Trifle Ledy Moda Vera Faith You can purchase the pattern on Ravelry for just $2 until June 30th 2017, then it will return to the regular price of $
