How about a Christmas Wreath, or a plaque to date your blanket?

This square was inspired by the lace pattern on a rather flouncy duvet cover. It was originally intended to be worked in a single colour, although the leafy design will lend itself to all manner of colour arrangements. However, the central motif is worked in such a way that the effect of the flowers and sprigs will be lost if the colours are ch...

A celebration of Spring. Snails process on thorns around a sundial showing early morning, set against hills topped with dewdrops, and a sky full of larks. The little snails are the only tricky bit, and as they are worked individually, after the first one, it should be quite easy. The central motif is a sundial, but if the asymmetry of this does...

This is an unconventional little 6” afghan square with a one piece woven centre. An interesting addition to a sampler afghan, or for use as a fun coaster.

Crown Street is a 12” afghan square inspired by the pattern on the tiles around a vintage fireplace.

It has heavily scented, very irregular, frothy massed flowers, and to me, that almond scent and b...

A riotous celebratory birthday party square for our most stalwart mod “Rockin’ Robin”.

Lacy, frothy and feminine, this square was adapted from Queen Anne’s Lace Scarf by Joyce Lewis, which was in turn inspired from a very old traditional pattern. In this part of the world “Cow Parsley”, is the common name for the same white
