FO No. 5 of 19: Lacy Hexagon Blanket Blanket

Published by

Hello, gorgeous crafter! Today, I have yet another WIP to FO reveal for you. I am so determined to finish these blankets and telling you about it is keeping me accountable. As I complete each blanket, I will be updating the WIP entry In the WIP pile reveal post. There isn’t really any order that I am finishing these in either, so expect them to be fairly random! I tried to organize them in a way that made sense, but after all was said and done, it just made the most sense to go with my creative gut and finish whichever one I wanted to work on next. So, here is my Lacy Hexagon Blanket, all finished! It’s so cozy and the colors are amazing. You can find these patterns here in my Ravelry Shop or in my Etsy Shop. I’ll be adding in FO pics and links to all of the WIP to FO blog posts on the WIP pile reveal post.

So, here is my 2020 VVCAL demo blanket using the Catona 50g balls in a Springy color palette that I called “Shy Violet”. I didn’t use all of the motifs, and this is a smaller blanket, like 40x54in. I’ll fill in more details along the way! You can find these patterns here in my Ravelry Shop, in my Etsy Shop, or in my own Online Store. I’ll be …

Spring Mix Blanket: Free Crochet Pattern (UK Terms) – FO No. 4!

Published by

Hello, gorgeous crafter! Today I want to share with you my latest crochet pattern. I was playing with these blocks recently, and I made a blog post detailing the WIP on the way to making this pattern. This blanket was born from a bin of half-used Scheepjes Catona – cotton yarns in every color from sunbeam yellow to cloud pink to lilac dusk. As I sorted through the skeins, I wasn’t thinking of perfection or planning a palette. I just wanted to play. What emerged was a lively mix of brights and pastels that feels exactly like spring: soft, bold, unexpected, and full of movement. PS – This blanket is one of my 19 WIPs that I am working on finishing this year! So I will call this FO Number 4. You can check out the Main WIP -> FO Page to see all of my WIPs and FO updates. Happy crafting! PDF Format The PDF version of this pattern is available on Etsy, Ravelry, and in my online shop, and both US and UK …

Latest Free Crochet Pattern in Progress: Spring Mix Blanket

Hello, lovely crafter! Today I have something special to share with you. I’ve had this blanket pattern in the works for a while as I was using the squares to stash bust through all of my remnants and leftovers. The pattern will consist of 7 square patterns that are joined with a continuous sc jayg using my PLT technique. The palette is made up of a bunch of Springy pastels and brights, with some lovely neutrals thrown in. I used only Scheepjes Catona for this project, but this would make a brilliant stash buster as well. I can’t wait to show you more in this WIP post!

The paid PDF version of this pattern is available on Etsy, Ravelry, and in my online shop, and both US and UK Terms PDFs are included.

FO No. 1 of 19: Rainbow Galaxy 2024 VVCAL Blanket

Published by

Hello, lovely! Today, as promised in my last post, I am showing off the first of 19 WIP finishes. I truly hope to finish these WIPs this year, but time will tell. In the WIP pile reveal post, I was wondering which WIPs I would start with first, and when it came down to it, I decided to just pick something I knew I would really enjoy. Of course this means it was 1) a rainbow! and 2) hexagon motifs! So, here is my 2024 VVCAL demo blanket using the Catona color pack and the Stone Washed and River Washed color pack. I didn’t use all of the motifs, and this is a throw-size blanket. There were some challenges along the way, which I’ll be sure to mention in case it helps someone out. I’ll be adding in FO pics and links to all of the WIP -> FO blog posts on the WIP pile reveal post.

Major WIP Round-up: 19 projects to finish!

Published by

Hello, gorgeous crafter! Today I’m revealing something deeply personal: My enormous WIP pile. I used to be that person who finished every project, but these days, raising four growing kiddoes, writing a book, and trying to find quiet time for my husband and myself, I am more like a person who photographs projects so that they look finished, and then relegating them to the WIP shelf of shame. So, let me bare all, here in this blog post, the 19 projects of my WIP pile. These projects are in various stages of completion, and there’s even an unpublished pattern here! As I finish them, the completed project will be up for sale, and I may group them up into a little sale periodically, so y’all don’t get sick of me peddling my wares. I list the 19 projects below, with a few photos for each one and pattern/yarn information as well, because I know some will be wanting that info. Expect a full blog post with all the details and progress/finished photos as I complete …

Free Crochet Pattern: Pink Pony Blanket (UK Terms)

Published by

Hello, gorgeous crafter! Today I want to share with you my latest crochet pattern. I wanted to create a simple and fun pattern that could tie together any color palette. This piece would be great for a stash buster, or with a planned layout, but if you use DK weight yarn or another weight thinner or thicker than Aran Weight yarn, then you will need to adjust the number of motifs that you make to achieve the same blanket size. Resizing instructions are at the end of the pattern. You’ll love this one! A note about the name, I was looking through Chappell Roan songs (currently obsessed), and thought Pink Pony Club would fit this blanket perfectly. The colors and the vintage, kitschy style of the blanket are well suited to her style I think! Then, I looked up the meaning behind the song, and it says the Pink Pony Club is a metaphor for having a safe space to exist, and I thought that was really beautiful. So Here you are! Pink Pony Blanket …
