Citrouille Pumpkin Baby Blanket - Crochet Pattern

As crocheters, we often find inspiration in the most unexpected moments, and the story behind our Citrouille Pumpkin Baby Blanket crochet pattern is no exception. Late one night, whilst feeding my new baby, inspiration struck. A few quick notes, a spark of creativity, and weeks later, the crochet design journey began. Much like the Waggle Dance Bee Blanket, I was drawn to weaving together two distinct crochet techniques – filet and colourwork.

My Nemesis, Crochet Along Plans, and Baby Blankets Galore

Life is never quiet or dull when you are a crochet mum lol. This month my girls have been yo-yoing between loving and hating the hot UK weather (fortunately for me it has now cooled off). Ice lollies have been an essential tool in my mum arsenal when the ‘hot and bothered’ grumps have attacked. We even decided to have an ‘ice-cream for dinner’ day (with sprinkles and sweeties of course) as part of the husbeast’s birthday celebration - this MUST become an annual tradition!

Video Blog - Episode 8

Thank you for coming to check out episode 8 of our video blog 😀. Between various family illnesses, a small baby (and that that entails) and working on some new patterns it has been a very busy month. I have been thoroughly enjoying lots of baby snuggles, and mentally planning new patterns whilst doing midnight feeds lol.

Unfortunately, I haven’t had quite as much crochet time as I would like - I have yet to master crocheting with a baby resting on my chest! However, this has encouraged me to concentrate on finishing WIPs and the crochet projects that are most important at this moment in time. Fortunately, I finished my So Eggstra blanket before the baby arrived which allowed the launch to go a little more smoothly - although technical issues with our camera corrupted the cover photo that I had originally selected 😢. Fingers crossed that this will be fixed soon.

Twisted Trio Ear Warmers

I wanted to cast a little spotlight onto the Twisted Trio Ear Warmers that we released not too long ago. I have been busy making lots of these as stocking fillers this year for my close friends and family. I’ve even made a few for baby bump - I can’t wait to see how cute she looks in them! I can just picture my little family out for a frosty morning walk wearing our cute ear warmers.
