Hello, friends! With the weather still rather cold in my part of the world, all I can think about is all types of cosiness. I shared the pattern for this two-tone crochet cowl in an Instagram reel in 2022 and I’ve been meaning to share it on the blog, so I’m pleased that I can…
Hey there hey, my friends!
I come bearing a pattern that should have been released nearly three years ago!! I know, I know, that’s a long time. This one’s been a rather strange one for some reason because I have designed and released other patterns since this one was designed….
Happy Easter, friends! Hope you’re keeping safe wherever you are. It feels weird to celebrate Easter on lockdown but this is what is absolutely necessary at this time to combat this terrible pandemic that has swept over much of the nations of the world.

Hey lovelies! How have you been? I haven’t blogged in a little while and what perfect timing to do so ‘cos I have some exciting news to share! Yaay!
In June this year, I had the opportunity to exhibit at The Wool Monty Show as a featured designer. It was…
While I was pregnant, particularly in my third trimester, I crocheted some clothing items for my baby. using some awesome patterns (paid) that produced uber cute pieces.
In no particular order, here are my top five. They’re definitely must-makes if you’re looking for some items to crochet for a baby…
Hey lovelies!
I love lace and open work patterns, and I’m always looking for ways to experiment with them. Since I seem to have a thing for cowls, judging by how many cowl pattern ideas I am currently thinking about, it only made sense to create a lacy cowl pattern….

Can you help me with this poll? Thanking you in advance ππ½.
So, I designed this beaut of a yoke sweater in 2020 but never released the pattern. One main reason is because itβs a bottom up yoke sweater and Iβm very much aware that most knitters prefer top down yoke sweaters. My plan has been to rework the pattern, so itβs a top down but I would love to get your thoughts.
Would you knit this as a top down or bottom up yoke sweater?
I always think cosy when I think about this shawl! The Oyinkan Asymmetric Shawl is a full bodied shawl created with consistent stripes of garter stitches complimented with stunning lace panels. Stylish and perfect for keeping the brrr in check ππ. Swipe for cosy pics ππ½ππ½.
Sample was knitted with Malabrigo Rios by @malabrigoyarn.
Comment βOYINKANβ and Iβll DM you the link to the pattern.

For now, Iβm just basking in being able to enjoy crafting again π§Ά. Anhedonia may have had me in chokehold but Iβm taking things one day at a time, one step at a time ππ½ππ½. #perimenopause #perimenopausesymptoms.
