Hello! It’s Jennifer Ryan, the designer and blogger behind Celtic Knot Crochet. I am excited to be sharing this project here on the Clover blog! Since Halloween is right around the corner, making these quick and easy animal ears that are attached to a basic one-size-fits-all headband makes for a superrr cute costume accessory. Let’s get started! 🙂 SKILL LEVEL: Easy SUPPLIES: Fur yarn and Velvet yarn – small amounts (I used a thick brown fur yarn and then some velvet yarn in white and pink – you can make…

Happy National Sewing Month!  It’s Rumer (@rumer_has_it on IG) back with a sewing machine cover project. The sewing machine I use is probably over 15 years old (give or take a few years), and the manufacturer’s cover is breaking at one of the seams a little…. I figured it’s finally time to replace it with a self-made version, so why not make it look cute and colorful while I’m at it? 🙂 I found the perfect hand-quilted squares to upcycle into this cover for my sewing machine, so let’s get started…

Hi everyone! Erin from @craftseverywhere on IG 🙂 It’s my favorite time of year and there’s no better way to celebrate it than by adding to my huge collection of pumpkins! I try to publish at least one new method or pattern for making pumpkins every year as it gives me an excuse to both add to my collection AND it makes it feel more like fall. The weather where I’m at is usually still pretty hot at the beginning of fall, so it can definitely be hard to get…

Hello! My name is Duana from ‘Duana Studio’ (@duana_m_chandler on IG)! I am normally huge on sewing, but decided that with the weather getting cooler, it’s time to bring out the yarn. Crocheting your own accessories can be a wonderfully creative and fulfilling hobby. And one of the most versatile and fashionable items you can make is a crossbody bag! I love crossbody bags because I can carry small things in it, whether it be my AirPods, chapstick, etc. It’s perfect for a quick run to the store or going…

Shannon & Jason are back at it to tell you about their TOP 10 MUST-HAVE Clover products right now! It’s that time again where we take a look at the top Clover tools in our studio, and believe us, we use a LOT of different tools. But how many of these tools actually do the job they claim to do?

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…
