Design by Tatsiana Kupryianchyk @ LillaBjornCrochet.com I had seen these kits at Black Sheep Wools previously, and even when in the sale hadn’t bought it, thinking “I’m not really a wrap type person”.

I remembered making a hexagon patchwork cushion as a child, so decided a hexagon would be a good plan. I found a hexagonal granny square (!) …

Crochet in the beginning
Mums and YouTube are the best!!! I saw what my Mum was making and thought they were so cute I really had to try and learn to crochet. She was using a YouTube video to teach herself how to do it, so I did the same. I had never got to grips with how I …
