Frosty Morning Hat
The stitches used to create this hat bring out the best in handspun or self-striping yarns. The rounds are worked in a spiral so there is no seam, and the stitches are worked into the back bar of the stitch creating a cool texture and a thick fabric for warmth. This hat is easily customizable and you can try it on as you crochet, ensuring the perfect fit.

Collective Unconscious
An adjustable, crescent shaped granny shawl perfect for that special skein of sock yarn or handspun. This relaxing project is a quick one because it’s so addictive you won’t want to put it down.
Looks great in solid colours, stripes, gradients, speckle dyed, tonal yarns and handspun!
According to Swiss Psychiatrist Carl Jung, the Collective Unconscious is the part of the unconscious mind that is derived from ancestral memory and experience. When working through my psychology degree, I always liked the theories put forth by Jung and his analytical psychology. I thought this concept would be a fitting title as I believe fibre arts of all kinds are a mix of ancestral memory and experience.

Hatkuna Matata
|
Hakuna Matata ~ it means “no worries”, a great philosophy, and a good basis for this hat. Easy to create and even easier to wear, and you will look good too! This hat can be made for men, women or children by adding or omitting extra repeats of round 5 in the crown. Embellish it as you like with big buttons, flowers or leave it simple.
** I wrote this pattern to teach a crochet class, feel free to use it for the same purpose** |
Speranza
|
This shawl has been created in honour of Oscar Wilde (1854 – 1900). He was an Irish playwright, author and poet. He spent much of his days enjoying life to its fullest and sharing clever witticisms with everyone. He absolutely LOVED interesting names and “Speranza” is just that. It was also his mother’s pen name when she wrote fairy tales. (Besides, Oscar Fingal O'Flahertie Wills Wilde would be too long for a shawl name). If I could have lived in the Victorian Era, Oscar and I would be great friends, drinking absinthe (or Darjeeling tea), going on adventures and enjoying interesting company.
I wanted this shawl to reflect a similar style that the Victorians would wear, while also keeping it an accessory that would be fit for a well-dressed person regardless of gender. The stitch pattern creates O’s & W’s and is a simple repeat that also looks like books stacked on shelves. |
“The mark of all good art is not that the thing done is done exactly or finely, for machinery may do as much, but that it is worked out with the head and the workman's heart.”

Tea & Honey
|
I wanted to make a tea cozy like an old victorian beehive (skep) and use buttons made by my friend Keely of Feet of Clay. I noticed there weren’t many crocheted hive cozies out there so her is my version. Should fit an average 6 cup teapot. Includes a tea recipe!
