Punkin Scarf

This autumn-coloured scarf looks so soft and warm, modelled here by Alex the cat, the designer's furry assistant.

I liked the flower stiches of the scarf, but I really added it here because I love the photo :P

Christmas Tree Skirt

Wouldn't this look lovely around the base of the tree in December?

I'm working on my first afghan at the moment (actually I hurt my elbow on Monday night, when I spent too long at it), but this is my next project.

Ms Pacman & Friends Change Purses

Fun reminders of a time when you had to go out to the pinball parlour to play a computer game.

Now, instead of spending all our money on arcade games, we can sit at home and play for free.

So where else would you keep all those coins you're not spending anymore?

Archena Skirt

I love this skirt, and I love the idea of being able to wear my crochet rug ;)

Not something for everyday, but nice for a different look now and then.

Definitely needs a slip to wear underneath.

Fun Retro Potholders

I love the cute-ness of these potholders.

-And although I'm not really into crochet in the kitchen, I think they make a very sweet wall-hanging.

Snowflake Throw

This throw is amazing!


I didn't know you could get this sort of effect in a crochet rug, and I love it!


This definitely goes onto my faves list... But it might be some time before I'm brave enough to try making it.

Applique Cupcake

Cute cupcake embellishment for applique.

If you make it from crochet cotton, it might even be suitable for scrapbooking.

Rockabye Baby Hoodie

This looks so cosy and soft for little ones to snuggle up in.

-And no, I'm not getting clucky (that means 'maternal', for you US readers).

I love this flower!

It will look absolutely fantastic attached to the fabric vine hanging along Wren's bedroom wall.

Super cute skirt for toddlers and youngsters.

Shame Wren is too old for it now ;)

Urchins and Limpets Blanket

This looks more decorative than warming to me, but it's still a lovely throw rug, and would really lift a boring lounge.

Apple Coaster

Make a set of these cute apple coaster for a friend or keep it for your own home...

-Add some small dots of red plastic fabric paint on the undersides to stop them slipping around on the table.

Dream Baby Throw

A gorgeous, puffy looking rug that you just want to sink into.

I can really imagine curling up on the lounge and dozing off with this wrapped around me.
