I should start a series: Wearing my handmade garments to the office ✨ Show our existing handmade wardrobe some love and wear them more often! P.S. This is my first time recording my voice! 🙂 I'm wearing the #cosmopolitansweater and #cosmopolitanbootcuffs designed by Ana-Maria @crochethighway Yarn from @spotlightstores Moda Vera Northcote Cotton . . . #crochet #crochethighway #handmade #fashion #ootd #officewear #slowfashion #sustainablefashion #crochetinspiration #handmadewardrobe #handmadefashion #explore #explorepage #makersgonnamake

I've jumped onto the bandwagon and have cast on the #sophieshawl which is a quick project so far.

My finished #MosaicCardi 🩷🧡 I really enjoyed crocheting this cardigan and seeing the charts work up. I love all the details of this design. Scroll to the end to see the inside of it ✨ Pattern by Sandra @nomadstitches @plyful.crochet Mosaic Cardi Yarn from @malabrigoyarn Ultimate Sock in Magenta and Sunset / Sock in Natural Details: I made size 2 and made no modifications.

The latest project on my hook is the #MosaicCardi 💕 I've been saving up this yarn since last year when this pattern was released, and I finally wound it up last week to start on this cardigan 😊 The shaping and design is incredible. And as usual with mosaic crochet, I cannot get enough of it. Pattern by Sandra @nomadstitches @plyful.crochet Mosaic Cardi Yarn from @malabrigoyarn Ultimate Sock in Magenta and Sunset / Sock in Natural, all purchased from @missharryloves Details: I am making size 2 . . . #nomadstitches #mynomadmake #plyful #workinprogress #crochet #mosaiccrochet #crochetcolorwork #colorinspo #colourwork #handmadewardrobe #flatlay #aesthetic #inspiration #crochetpattern #crochetdesign #crochetpattern #handdyedyarn #malabrigo #slowfashion #sustainablefashion #explorepage #explore #create #creative #pinkaesthetic #crochetcardigan #makersgonnamake #makeithappen

My latest project is the #alpinebloomtee 🖤 I've been captivated by this intricate fingering weight colourwork design since it was released a year ago, and I'm thrilled to be finally tackling it. I wasn't sure I was up for the challenge but I decided to just go for it. For the main colour I'm using this lovely neutral shade I picked up at last year's Fibre Frolic festival and I'm pairing it with black for a classic look. I've had to put this project on pause until my husband leaves for work later this week - this is a project which requires lots of focus and I want to avoid frogging at all costs! Pattern by @boylandknitworks Alpine Bloom Yarn from Spun Out Fibres in 30% Suri/70% Merino Blend and @bendigowoollenmills Luxury 4ply in Black . . . #boylandknitworks #alpinebloom #handmadewardrobe #workinprogress #diy #colourwork #colorinspo #strandedknitting #neutrals #flatlay #aesthetic #explorepage #explore #yarn #yoke #lace #handmade #slowfashion #sustainablefashion #makersgonnamake #makeithappen #inspiration #bendigowoollenmills

Throwback to my #MidnightMandalaTop 🖤🤍 I love the intricate crochet details across the yoke and hem. I went monochrome with black, white and grey, but I think it would look beautiful in vibrant summer colours ✨ Pattern by Jeanette @vesleull Midnight Mandala Top Yarn from @scheepjes Linen Soft . . . #vesleull #crochet #colorinspo #monochrome #crochettop #crochetdesign #crochetyoke #crochettexture #crochetinspiration #imadethis #makeithappen #makersgonnamake #slowfashion #sustainablefashion #asianmodel #fashion #cute #handmade #handmadewardrobe #diy #explore #explorepage #inspiration #crafts

I tested this beautiful crochet pattern for Linda a few months ago and looking at these pictures has my hands itching to make a second one 😍 Do you ever make a second (or third) version of a design you really love?

The #GarDenise crochet pattern designed by Pam @loveit_hookit is now available! 🩷 I chose to make mine an oversized tee with sleeves and a collar - but it's completely up to you how you'd like yours to be because it's made to measure and also be a dress! Do check out the testers' versions - there are so many variations 😍 Pattern by Pam @loveit_hookit GarDenise Yarn from @dropsdesign Belle Buttons from @craftqueenaus . . . #loveithookit #crochet #crochetpattern #crochetdesign #crochetinspiration #crochettee #explore #explorepage #slowfashion #sustainablefashion #inspiration #asianmodel #fashion #cute #lacetop #pinkaesthetic #pink #outfit #outfitinspiration #makeithappen #makersgonnamake #imadethis #handmadewardrobe #handmade #crochetcommunity
