Patterns, Tips and Video Tutorials for Crochet
There are certain projects that are a labor of love, and this was one of them. I finished this shawl about a year ago, but life happened and I wasn’t able to put this pattern into testing or work on the video tutorial until now. This is an intermediate crochet pattern and I hope you […]
I love mini sets, and I love yarn from The Frosted Stitch. When she took some of her most iconic colors and created minis to go with the main color, I was so inspired! These “Deconstructed” sets are gorgeous, and I knew I had to design something in them to showcase their beauty. The nice […]
Hi! I’m Laura of @lost_boys_crochet and I’m guest hosting on Serena’s blog today. When asked if I wanted to participate in the Charity Cozy MAL hosted by Noor’s Knits and Knitting with Chopsticks, I immediately said yes. Giving back, especially for the non-proift Cure Childhood Cancer, is something that I strive to do as a […]
My good friend Alea (@thescarvingartist) and I are participating in the Charity Cozy MAL hosted by Noor’s Knits and Knitting with Chopsticks in the month of October. This is fun Make-a-Long (MAL) and proceeds from the purchase of the pattern will go to the non-profit Cure Childhood Cancer. Alea designed the HoneyComb square, a Tunisian […]

I recently had the opportunity to buy yarn from an indie yarn dyer, but I was only able to get my hands on a single skein! Partially it was because of my budget, but I also got to the release late and the only type of yarn left was worsted weight. I went ahead with […]
I fell in love with the regency inspired dresses in Bridgerton and wanted to make a summer top in the same high-waisted style and fitted bodice. To get this, I opted to make a ribbed top to keep the bodice tight and then combine that with a flowy mesh stitch to create a lovely baby […]
Have you ever fallen in love with a yarn? And then immediately regret that you didn’t buy more? That’s how I feel about this Louisa Harding Mazzo Yarn. And I can’t find it anywhere. Luckily, I think this pattern I’ve created will hold up to any worsted weight yarn. When I first got my hands […]
If you haven’t checked out my Easy V-neck sweater, don’t worry – I have a new variation of the summer top out! My previous pattern was based on a yarn that I had gotten on clearance and was no longer available, but this pattern uses Paintbox Yarns that you can easily order from Lovecrafts. When […]
