Get ready for a modern take on Flamenco! Though there’s no polka dots or ruffles, the puffs of this top are reminiscent of polka dots, and because of their weight, this top flows and moves very similarly to a ruffled blouse! The pretty purple stripes are also vibrant like traditional flamenco dresses, and this topContinue reading “Spanish Siesta”

Hibiscus Tee
Welcome! I’ve been a bit MIA lately (the whole family had covid, and then I took a much-needed break from social media), but today I’m back with the much-delayed release of the Hibiscus Tee! This is a fun lacy floral top with a simple hdc bodice. The floral lace yoke is lovely and light, andContinue reading “Hibiscus Tee”
Floral Mandala Wall Hanging Trio
Today’s pattern release is a Freebie! You know you all love freebies – who doesn’t? Well, this mandala trio has been hanging on my wall for over a year, and I’ve used it as background for so many of my pictures. Over time I’ve gotten a bunch of comments about them, so I figured I’dContinue reading “Floral Mandala Wall Hanging Trio”

Tr5tog-special
This is a special stitch that I’m using for the bottom of a chevron. It’s basically a regular tr5tog stitch, but you’re skipping a stitch between every “leg” of each tr. Check it out below to see what I mean! Starting point will be any stitch of treble height. This doesn’t necessarily have to beContinue reading “Tr5tog-special”
Long Loop Stitch
This is a favorite stitch of mine. It’s called the “Long Loop Stitch” and it’s basically like doing broomstick lace, but without the need for a dowl! This stitch is worked over four stitches, and it creates the most beautiful lace. Once you see what incredible texture you can create with this stitch, you won’tContinue reading “Long Loop Stitch”
Standing Treble Crochet Stitch
The standing treble crochet is my favorite way to do the first treble of a row/round. Doing chains only makes the stitch too thin, doing chains and a tr in the first stitch is too bulky. This method is perfect! Starting point: Insert hook into stitch, YO, pull up a loop, YO, pull thru 2. Continue reading “Standing Treble Crochet Stitch”
