With the continuance of dark and gloomy days here in Amsterdam, I felt compelled to bring a little color into the world! I give you, the Pippa Crochet Tote! She’s bright, she’s pink, she’s ready for a boozy brunch! She’s not big enough to hold your bottle of bubbly but she will look cute keeping […]
The Cozy Cuddle Throw is my first crochet blanket and I love how it turned out. Not only is it the first crochet blanket I’ve ever made, it’s also the first one I’ve ever designed. It took a very long time to finish, several months to be exact, which is unusual for me. I’m a […]
I began this year with a goal of designing my own crochet pieces and today I’m thrilled to unveil my first crochet design, the Tote d’Azur! This is the first crochet design in my Riviera Collection, launching May 2023. It will comprise 6 crochet pieces named after and inspired by the Côte d’Azur! The full […]
They say the days are long but the years are short, and nothing could be further from the truth this time of year. How is it possible that Christmas is less than 12 days away? I have really enjoyed this holiday season. I feel like I’ve done the most to embrace every minute and really […]
I have had this project finished since before we moved to Amsterdam, and I’m just now getting around to shooting and sharing it with you. This was one of my “countdown creations” I worked on while literally counting down the days before joining Paul here. You can see some of my other crochet countdown creations […]
Today our container arrived in Amsterdam! I’m still amazed that it arrived a little over a month after the movers packed up our house. It’s just crazy to me that it traveled across the Atlantic and delivered to our door as if it was an in-town move. The next step is getting everything organized – […]
I’ve been referring to my latest projects as “Countdown Creations” since I’m counting down the days until I join Paul in Amsterdam. At the risk of sounding dramatic, crocheting has been a lifesaving hobby! It’s not only relaxing but it keeps my mind busy on something other than all the millions of other little things […]
If you read my last post then you know I’ve been keeping busy creating while counting down the minutes until I can join Paul in Amsterdam. Every day that goes by is another day closer to being together. Envisioning our first evening cooking, drinking wine, and hanging out with our girls is what keeps me […]
Say hello to my latest project – this big bobble crochet hobo bag! It’s big, it’s covered in bobble stitches, and I am loving it! Let’s chat about it… (and some other things). For a video of my bag, watch my Reel! I knew that I wanted to make a big spring bag as my […]
Well, how are you? Is 2022 treating you well so far? I’ve been keeping busy with new crochet projects and doing some massive cleaning and organizing. If you’re not following me on Instagram then you’re missing out on some truly awesome 80s and 90s nostalgia that I’ve unearthed from our closets. I’ll share more about […]
It’s just a regular crochet factory over here these days. Paul jokes that I’m turning into that crochet guy from the U.S. Bank commercials (I promise I’m not making a pool cover). LOL But, I am always searching for unique projects to crochet and when I saw this little bag I knew I had to […]
