Crochet: Sleeveless Top
The Primavera crochet top is perfect for the warmer months and features a sequence of crochet stitches that give it a delicate lace look, full of texture.
Crochet: Shawl / Wrap
This lightweight shawl uses basic stitches to create a winged shawl that drapes nicely around the shoulders. The front/back post trebles give this shawl great texture and works up quickly using fingering yarn. The back post trebles worked on the wrong side of your work are so pretty, making this shawl reversible!
Knitting: Beanie, Toque
I love making hats!
Crochet: Purse / Handbag
The little woven basket (L.W.B) bag features alternating front post, back post double crochet rounds which create a weaved pattern and great texture. It also features optional accessories including crochet chain, Romanian cord and tassels. The pattern includes pictures to guide you through.
Crochet: Vest
This beginner level winter vest works up fast by making identical front and back panels, seaming the shoulders and sides- leaving armholes. Lastly add the turtleneck collar by following the hdc pattern all around. Add a belt to cinch the waist and voila… you have a cosy vest that will keep the winter blues at bay and is perfect for layering!
Crochet: Sleeveless Top
I designed the Summer Breeze Tank to be worked in the round for a seamless look. It works best with cotton which will keep you cool in the summer (approximately 4 skeins of Lion Brand 24/7 cotton was required for M size).
Crochet: Sleeveless Top
This summer tank top is designed to be slim fitting and worked in the round before separating into front and back panel to form the armhole. It features the extreme drop stitch which can be done in a contrast colour ( step by step pictures are provided as a guide to this special stitch).
