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.

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 :)

When hot, summer, beach days turn to cool, bonfire nights; the summer stripes throw is the go-to bring along to cozy up in. Perfectly packable for your weekend getaways. Add a pom-pom border and you have the hottest blanket this summer.

We’re coming up on summer and this project is worthy of sandy coastlines and sun dried driftwood. I gravitated towards these colours because I’m craving all the beach vibes right now—living in the midst of some of the biggest lakes in the world means I’m surrounded by water (literally!) and it’s apart of my soul. For those who know me or who’ve been following from the beginning…you know that I’m a lover of the water and sailing. This blanket (and the next few patterns to follow) will be indicative of just that. Earthy, beachy, sun-kissed with just a hint of sparkling water.

I truly hope you enjoy this relaxing make. 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 :)

A beginner friendly, easy crochet pattern for those wanting to dip their toes into the art of pillow making :) These squares are just slip stitched together and the result is a perfectly squishy pillow you can feel good about. Not only are the colour options endless-the sunburst squares always fill me with joy. Work them up solid coloured for an easy, carefree crochet experience OR change up the colours each round and create a multicolored masterpiece…

We all have them…they add up pretty fast….and yet, what to do with them all? You know what I’m talking about—scraps. Scraps and those random skeins you just “had to have” but had no real purpose for. Well, I’ve just the thing!! The Solid Scrappy Granny Pillow is just as fun to make, as it is to look at. The combinations are endless- use up all those tiny scraps OR plan a gorgeous pillow with skeins from your stash. Mix them up randomly, or plan a “plaid like” looking pillow. Tonal, variegated, self striping-you name it! It all works with this pillow and I absolutely cannot wait to see all your creativity on this one.

Hi everyone! I’m just over here checking all the things off the list! Since forever you’ve been asking for the “half” sunburst tutorial or the Triangle Sunburst. I’ve wanted to create a simple sunburst shawl for some time—and since the Island Time Blanket pattern is a current favourite it seemed like the perfect time to make the sister pattern….

It’s bright, it’s colourful, it’s made with dreamy yarn…

The Winters are grey here in Canada-but not from where I’m sitting! A blanket so cheerful it’s bound to remind you of tropical getaways and warmer, sunnier days ahead….
