STUDIO VLOG 012

Crocheting Granny Square Blanket

In this episode, I am welcoming you to the behind-the-scenes of making a granny square baby blanket for my newborn. I love writing a pattern, but creating something with a very special purpose in mind is simply magical. ❤️ Enjoy!

STUDIO VLOG 011

New Pattern and Marcrame Rainbows

This is the story about how the Into The Woods crochet baby sweater tutorial was made and how I created my first macrame rainbow. I share my mistakes and tips too.

STUDIO VLOG 010

Moving Time! New office!

It is an exciting time. We are moving countries and with that changing the apartments. This means I am getting a brand new home office. Who would have thought how much yarn I was able to store over the years?

STUDIO VLOG 009

Cleaning and Decluttering My Yarn Stash

This was not an easy task. But I’ve managed to go through every ball, skein, and hank of yarn in my yarn stash, give it a reason to stay, find it a new home, and add it to my Ravelry stash.

STUDIO VLOG 008

Taking a Short Break From Work and Crocheting Something for Myself

Taking a break every once in a while is a good thing. And as a crochet designer, taking time and making something just for yourself is a nice treat too. And I’ve managed to do both this time! ❤️

STUDIO VLOG 007

Building the Apothecary Drawer DIY and Making New Patterns

Making new patterns and testing old ones is something I do all the time. But I do prefer the first. Also, it’s nice to do something different for a change.

STUDIO VLOG 006

Creative Journaling, Making Yarn Cakes, and Learning Punch Needle

Every once in a while is good to try out something new. This time I tried a brand new fiber art – needle punching. See what I came up and maybe, you get inspired too!

STUDIO VLOG 005

Small Crochet Studio Tour, Pink Label Yarn, and Ikea Cart

A little bit of everything. In this episode, I am showing you around, giving you a short studio/home office tour, explaining why my finger has been all wrapped up for weeks, and building a small Ikea chart.

STUDIO VLOG 004

New Pattern, Admin Work, and Q&A

Working on new patterns is something I do all the time. Some of them take longer than others, but I love the process of creating something with my hands. In this vlog, I will show you behind the scenes of making a new pattern and answer some questions of yours.

STUDIO VLOG 003

Rigid Heddle Loom Weaving – Making Shawls From Start To Finish

Weaving is something I’ve wanted to learn for a very long time. So I bought myself a 60 cm Rigid Heddle Loom from Ashford, and with the help of books and online tutorials, taught myself the basics of weaving. I am still learning and making a lot of mistakes.

STUDIO VLOG 002

Baby Booties and a review of a Crochet Hook with an LED light

In this episode, I was working on my latest crochet pattern for baby booties – Rain Boots. I’ve also opened a package and made a review of a rechargeable lighted hook with interchangeable heads and shared my thoughts about it.

STUDIO VLOG OO1

Making A Crochet Pattern and Opening a Huge Yarn Package

Welcome to my very first studio vlog! I have wanted to do this for a long time, but I always found excuses not to. I am so happy I finally did this. In this week’s studio vlog, I am showing you how I edit my video tutorials and PDF patterns, the programs I use, and how they look before they are exported and ready to be uploaded. 🧶😀
