Hi everyone, my name is Krista Ann (@explorewithknitsy on IG), and I’m excited to be back writing for Clover’s blog! No matter where in the world you travel to, I recommend that you always make it a point to try the local chocolate. Every country has their own flavor of this delicious cocoa treat! It is never advisable to eat chocolate while knitting, but if you are using a beautiful chocolatey brown colorway, you can probably get away with sneaking in a few bites! In celebration of International Chocolate Day,…

INSPIRATION: There’s something incredibly special about taking an old, forgotten piece and giving it a fresh lease on life through crochet. The magic of upcycling is whispering new stories into fabric that’s seen its fair share of adventures. What makes this project even more enchanting is the belief that we can infuse our creations with intention, just like practicing Reiki. With each stitch, we’re weaving a little bit of magic and personal energy into our work, making it a unique and heartfelt piece. I’m the Crochet Faerie, and I look…

Molly here from @louloopsco on IG! 🙂 Crochet food items just put a smile on my face. With it being Labor Day weekend, I think of BBQs, and when I think of BBQs, I think corn on the cob!

This is the first of many different foods I’m gonna be creating in this food series, so let’s get started!   MATERIALS:…

Hey everyone! Shannon & Jason here, from @embracethecreativechaos on IG! Picture it: you’re at your local guild meeting, and one of your stitching friends is extolling the benefits of using a bowl of those candy-coated chocolate candies to count their rows and to keep track of their increases, decreases, and pattern repeats. Work a row, eat a candy. Crochet, knitting, and crunchy chocolate candies…perfection! But let’s be honest here –counting with a bowl of chocolates is like enlisting a mischievous squirrel who is just as likely to eat the evidence…

Hi everyone! My name is Molly, from @louloopsco on IG, and creating crochet foods has always been one of my favorite things. There is just something so cute and unique about it. This jumbo breakfast favorite uses none other than the waffle stitch. The waffle stitch is made in series of 3s, and alternates between each row. You can make the pillow even bigger as long as you add stitch counts by 3s. National Waffle Day is August 24th, so make sure to create this and show it off just…
