Crochet Video Blog - Featuring a Tiny Guest Appearance!

Hey there crochet lovers! I'm excited to be sharing with you about the latest episode of my crochet video blog. I have to admit, it's been a bit of a challenge lately as one of my childcare providers has been on holiday, which has reduced my crochet time. But on the bright side, it's given me more time to have fun with my kids!

Despite the challenges, I've been busy working on some of my own designs and experimenting with new techniques in the hopes of submitting to some crochet magazines for the first time. I'm feeling a little nervous, but I'm also excited to see where this new adventure takes me.

The Mariquita Ladybird Blanket - Crochet Pattern

This pattern was inspired by my daughters, who have always been fascinated by ladybirds. They love watching them crawl around in the garden, and so I created this ladybird blanket just for them. The pattern features a series of solid granny squares that come together to create an adorable ladybird motif. And the best part is that it's beginner-friendly, with written instructions and graphical illustrations that make it easy to follow.

The So Eggstra Blanket

Our beautiful Easter egg-themed blanket crochet pattern makes an adorable baby blanket - perfect for gifting at your next baby shower 😊. This baby-sized afghan will keep your gorgeous bundle of joy feeling safe and warm.

This pattern was the last Elimee Designs pattern that I managed to crochet before the wee Miss arrived. I knew that colourwork would be challenging to manage with both a baby resting on me and a sleep-deprived brain lol. I loved crocheting this pattern because it allowed me to combine two of my favourite crochet techniques - filet crochet and colourwork.
