The Succulents Yarn Subscription is a set of 12 new surprise colour ways from Hue Loco Yarn. From it, I used the 12 colours to make up the main squares for the Succulents Granny Square CAL blanket design. Each month a surprise skein of yarn will show up in the mail and from it you make the squares for the blanket. At the end of the year, the blanket is joined up. The blanket construction is made up of two squares: sunburst granny squares and solid granny squares in an alternating pattern. Each month you make 10 squares according to the schedule listed in the pattern below…

a kind of patchwork effect. It’s subtle, and focuses more on the art of beautiful hand dyed yarns rather than a quilted effect. However, it still shines through just a bit. —And you know just how much I love a quilt inspired blanket :)

Adding yet another addition to the Hygge Burst Family of patterns! I adore this scarf. Originally, I had planned on making a shawl—and maybe I still will….but I’m super glad I switched to scarf at the last minute. I’m definitely more of a scarf girlie and this one is totally scrumptious. I made this one out of sock weight yarn in Hue Loco’s newest Rosé Collection. The colours are beautifully wearable, the drape is incredible… and I can tell this will be a go-to piece in my wardrobe for the remainder of the Autumn and Winter season.

Hygge (pronouced “Hue-guh”) is a Scandinavian word meaning everything that is cozy, happy, special, warm and nice. It’s used as a noun, a verb and an adjective! I fell in love with the idea of hygge after reading The Little Book of Hygge: The Danish Way to Live Well by Meik Wiking. For me, this scarf encompasses all the warmth, coziness and happiness that you can get. I hope you all feel the same too.

It’s bright, fun and perfectly summer. What is it about Pineapples!? I just love them…to eat and to look at! I wanted a simple, yet colourful version of a pineapple to curl up in. Made with simple, 3-round starburst squares, cozy yarns and seamed together later. This granny square blanket is good enough to eat ;)

A traditional granny square blanket pattern—with a twist! I took the typical Starburst Granny square and put my own little spin on it….

Happy crocheting!

I truly hope you enjoy this relaxing make. It’s based on the original Coastline Sunburst Hexie Blanket Pattern I released last year-but with a twist! I’ve included half hexies for the top and bottom of the blanket for a really finished look.

With a smaller selection of colours, no colour changes and motifs that are packable—this project promises to be the bring-a-long staple. Join them all up later with a continuous join as you go for hexagons and you’ve got yourself the perfect project to ring in the summer with. Happy Crocheting :)

The original Hygge Burst Hexie Blanket Pattern encompasses all the warmth, coziness and happiness that you can get from a blanket. I wanted the same feeling with this pattern—but brighter and fun for spring and summer. This particular collection is extra special to me. I love the Geode theme and the colours are absolutely gorgeous. They’re bright, pastel colours but with warm undertones that are perfectly wearable and make beautiful home accessories. Because of this, I chose to join my blanket with a brownish-grey colour that really brings out the earthy qualities of this collection.

I hope you love it! Happy crocheting everyone :)

Inspired by quilts and the Scandinavian Nordic Star motif which is so popular in knitting and yoke sweaters. I wanted one for myself so put the crochet spin on it!

Hue Loco has another stunning Collection coming out and I’m making a pattern for it!! The Farmers Market Collection is open for Pre-Order June 16th at 8 MST.

The original Hygge Burst Blanket Pattern encompasses all the warmth, coziness and happiness that you can get from a blanket. I wanted the same feeling with this pattern—but brighter and fun for summer (hellloooooo neon tweed!!) Rest assured, this won’t be the last colour combo I put together for this blanket. It was a blast to make and I absolutely cannot wait to put together a colour scheme using Wool of the Andes Tweed for autumn :)

For now thought, I hope you’re all loving the light-hearted colour combos of these Hexagons. Happy crocheting everyone :)
