Kicking off the year with a project that was one of my most requested designs from 2023 - a crochet version of my MODular Knit Quilt! The MODular Crochet Quilt is nearly identical to its knit sister, with the same modular log cabin construction, only this time it’s worked up in speedy double crochet.

Enter the MODular Knit Quilt.

Read MoreSay hello to my new favorite wrap! After many requests for a knit version of the Resonance Wrap, I took the plunge and worked out an equally (if not more!) beautiful design and I'm so glad I did. The Reverb Wrap uses a fun mini bobble-type stitch to mimic the mesmerizing texture of the original crochet pattern and the results are stunning.
Read MoreIt's fairly common for me to get an abundance of requests for a crochet version of a new knitting pattern, and vice versa, but I don't think I've consistently received so many passionate pleas for such over the course of several years for any design as much as my knit Streamline Tank. Well, the day has finally arrived folks!
Read MoreMy favorite thing about Color Theory yarn is putting together little color combo families. Because all of the colors go so well with each other and the palette spans the rainbow and includes a solid set of six neutrals, there are so many possibilities for "fades."
Read MoreOne of my favorite designs of all time is my Autumn League Pullover, and I've had so much fun creating seasonal riffs on the original over the years.

Read MoreI don't know if this is a me thing or an everyone thing, but inspiration always seems to strike when I'm neck deep in working on something else. Sometimes I just jot down a note or send myself an email reminder of the brilliant idea, but sometimes I have to drop everything …
Read MoreIt might be sweater season, but it's also definitely blanket season! October is my favorite month of the year and for me it evokes apple and pumpkin picking, cozy vibes, knitwear, and snuggling up to watch scary movies. I really wanted …

They will each publish their pattern for free online so YOU can follow along with us and create your own knit or crochet afghan! This year-long collaborative effort will feature stories from the designers about their paths as makers, and will give you the opportunity to learn new stitches and make new friends in the community along the way.
