New! Surftime Blanket – Scheepjes YARN Bookazine, Issue 7: Reef

Published by

Hey, there, awesome yarn artist! There is so much to share today! A Big Finish Yes, just a few days ago, I finally published the Mateo’s Granny Square Blanket pattern – I know you may had been waiting for that one, because my DMs and inboxes were full of messages asking if it was almost ready. Welp, I finished it! But way before that, something top secret was on my hook. A Top Secret Project, Revealed In the Fall of 2018, the Scheepjes Bloggers went to Yarndale, and in all my free time, I was busy designing a project for the Scheepjes YARN Bookazine, Issue 7: Reef. Okay, I’m totally kidding about the free time – we were hustling and bustling and ogling gorgeous yarns – check out my post on the 2018 Scheepjes Bloggers’ Days at Yarndale! But, yes I do have overpack-itis, and I did pack some Colour Crafter yarn with me so I could at least have a little play with the motif design for my ocean-inspired blanket during my airport layover …

Gemma Blanket – Free Crochet Pattern

Published by

Gemma is a sweet and stylish geometric baby blanket made in chunky Stone Washed XL. I named her Gemma after the diamond shapes, but coincidentally, all of the colors of Stone Washed are named for gemstones. It was meant to be! If you need a fast baby blanket, one option is to use thicker yarn, but the end result can be a boxy and bulky piece. By mixing thick motifs with thinner yarn for the join and border, you can turn a good blanket into a great blanket. Try this pattern for your next gifty make! My fast and furious week-long Gemma journey has its own blog post! But now it’s done, and I’m truly proud of the result. It was an utter joy to work with the new and favorite colors of Scheepjes – Stone Washed XL, and the original Stone Washed. See my review of these yarns and where to find them near you!  Coming tomorrow: the Gemma crochet blanket pattern! (Update! Now here!) With jewel motifs made in Scheepjes – Stone Washed XL, and continuous flat braid …
