Hanging Rock Designs is my first collection of seasonal knitting and crochet patterns. The collections will be launched on 31October/1 November for autumn/winter and 1 May for spring/summer.

Hanging Rock Designs vol.2 is my second collection of seasonal knitting and crochet patterns which launch on 1 May and 1 November each year.

The October Socks were designed specifically for the amazing orange sock yarn from Lisas Attik which had no name!!

These cute, summer ankle socks were designed for my daughter Betsy, age 9, specifically to show off the wonderful sock set from Blue Fern Yarns that was also designed for my daughter Betsy!

Princess Polka Dots is a modular hexagon crochet blanket designed by my daughter, Betsy, when she was 8 years old.

These socks were designed to be used with a yarn advent calendar but will also work with any small scraps of sock yarn or a mini skein set. The pattern also looks great with just two colours.

The Zigzaggy Socks were originally designed for my 8 year old daughter using a pretty, speckled yarn but I was curious to see what the zig zag pattern would look like in a solid colour yarn and they turned out so great.

The Autumn Socks are knit over 64 stitches on 2.25mm and 2.5mm needles. You will need both size needles because the pattern, which is integral to the ribbing, works better on 2.5mm needles with the remainder of the sock worked on 2.25mm.

The Wych Elm socks are worked cuff down over 64 stitches on 2.25mm needles with a heel flap and gusset and standard toe.

These socks were designed to make the most out of the colours in the Biffsugar Yarns Bonfire Night mystery skein 2020 which I used together with a solid black 4ply from Opal.

The Winter Socks are a 64sts, cuff-down sock pattern using two 50g balls of Drops Nord in the Pearl Grey Mix (03) colourway.

The Spring Stripes Blanket was originally launched in June 2016 and this is a re-work of that basic recipe to include different options and the ability to modify.

These lovely socks can be made with contrast stripes or single colour.

Ad.e.las.ter ~ a provisional name for a plant which has not had its flowers botanically examined, and therefore has not been referred to its proper genus.

Now available in both French and English.

These lovely socks use two balls of Drops Nord in the powder pink colourway, and 2.25mm needles.

I designed the London Blanket way back in 2015 and then completely forgot about it, I’m not sure why.

The Six Wives Shawl has been designed in collaboration with Biffsugar Yarns to celebrate the six wives of Henry VIII.

These cute summer shorties were inspired by the Love Island Sock Mini Set from Biffsugar Yarns and as at May 2023 I had to change the name of them from Love Island Socks to Lovely Shorty Socks for copyright reasons (yes, I know)!

Ambala Remixed is a remix of my Ambala pattern designed for use with a gradient yarn cake and just using the vintage pineapple chevron stitch from that pattern.

Shimla is a pretty clutch bag pattern that has a simply constructed base with a pretty, frilly exterior and mega awesome multi-bound tassels.

The Mayura socks feature a vintage old shale stitch on the front with a line of open twisted rib along the back.

Ambala is a cool, cotton lacy wrap designed for summer evenings or weddings.

This cowl is made using the fabulous millstone stitch (If you need instruction on this stitch I have a video tutorial here) and I loved how it resembles the formality of a parterre garden when you use a solid colour for the outline (mortar) and a pretty handpainted yarn for the centres (bricks).

The Dotty Socks use a simple dot stitch pattern which is easy to memorise and looks great with all types of sock yarn.

Every woman, every man

Every woman, every man

This cowl was designed by me for the specific purpose of fitting close in to my neck when I’m wearing my dog walking parka.

These lovely fingerless mitts were made with autumn in mind and feature a pretty fan stitch which carries on to the thumb.

Lejos and Mary

The Maya Top is made from a simple construction of granny squares and is easy to modify for different sizes and yarn, with sizing details (for S, M and L) and further notes on additional modification/sizing.

I saw a beautiful pair of crocheted fingerless flower mitts at Anthropologie but they were sold out so I decided to make my own. It’s the first time I’ve ever created an Anthropolgie hack, the first time I’ve ever seen something on the high street that I’ve wanted to recreate and so I’ve hope I’ve done those mitts justice. There is a video tuto...

This is a super easy scarf worked in two pieces and joined together with a panel of central motifs.

A fabulously chunky yarn showcases the amazing ball stitch from Betty Barnden’s Crochet Stitch Bible.

Please note that this price does not include digital download tax which will be added on by Etsy if you live in an applicable area.

This super big shopper bag is made using super chunky cotton yarn and the fabulous Suzette Stitch worked in the round.

This cowl was designed for Love Crochet Magazine, Issue 38 and uses a vintage crochet stitch pattern called a Hoosier Stitch.

The Lana Top is a super easy summer top that is perfect for a beginner crocheter who wants to try out their first garment.

The Betsy Skirt is a simple pattern for a super stretchy, pull-on skirt for toddlers and young girls with added pompoms for a bit of fun.

This hat comes in three sizes:

This fab pattern was created in honour of my favourite ice lolly and features a lovely sedge stitch that created tons of definition and texture.

This is a super easy, pull-on skirt pattern for children. Designed with my super active, super girly four year old in mind.

A pretty baby blanket in a luxurious yarn, crocheted using a stretchy staggered shell stitch to create something beautiful and soft to wrap tightly around your new baby.

This baby blanket was born from a desire to make a lacy baby blanket in beautiful sun-washed tones to match my summery mood when designing it (and considering it was designed for making on my summer holiday in Malta).

This simple but effective cowl is a real statement piece for something entirely constructed from double crochet stitches (singles in the US).

The Bon Bon Blanket is quite a large baby blanket/throw made from solid granny squares and finished with a pretty bobble edging.

Inside Crochet. Issue 65.
