Reflections on a decade of The Crochet Project

Hi, Next week marks The Crochet Project's 10th Birthday! It feels like just yesterday and a million years ago all at once. I know a few of you have been here for the journey all the way along but I suspect most of you are newer here and maybe don't know how it got going. So I thought I'd share a...

The lightness after a big decision

Hi, Thank you so much to all of you that shopped the Hooks and Notions sale last week. You have practically cleared me out, I have about two hooks left and a few tape measures. (The tape measures are the longer length ones. I started stocking them because the only ones I could find on the market...

Playful creation

Hi, True to my idea from last week I have spent this week playfully, back to doing what I love most which is taking a hook, some yarn, a large pile of reference books and curling up in a corner and letting myself explore my interests. It turns out I have a bit of an obsession for crochet cords...

It's beginning to look a lot like....

Getting my head back in the game

Hi, I don't know about you but I always seem to find it extremely tricky to get back into good working habits after even a short break away from my desk. It's enough to put me off taking a holiday sometimes! So this week has mostly been getting distracted and falling down rabbit holes in my...

Use it up! - new course and early bird offer

Hi, I've talked a lot lately about keeping your yarn craft affordable and how that might mean learning a bit more about yarn, yarn substitution and using what you have. I started thinking about what tutorials I could create to help with this and I just didn't stop writing, there were so many. So...

Inspiration strikes

Hello, Lately I have been really organised and strict with myself. Each day has had a to do list and I've been really disciplined about sitting there and working through until it is done. But yesterday the to do list flew out of the window as I was suddenly gripped by the big idea I needed. I'd...
