Carl's crochet and design skills have reached a whole new level with this really pretty top which she is going to add a detachable material skirt to so that it can be worn as a dress or top with shorts or jeans. Amazing Carla @scentcosmetics

Isn't this young guy amazing??
There it go. The crochet top for the dress is ready and we are considering making a detachable skirt so it can be used as a top or dress. What do you think? #dropsafrancotton #dressedforspring #bloomingincolours
Did you know that Coral is this Springs colour??? Just a few of our range 😉

Crochet pattern for this week's Cable Crochet workshop finally sorted😇. I had too many ideas and patterns in my head👩🏫 but realised it would be too much for one workshop so I ditched the lattice (a bit tricky😉) and the bobbles to leave this - which could morph into either a cushion cover or a tote bag? What do you think?

This might be the most amazing crochet I have seen😎😲
I am loving the way this Spring Sampler Shawl is looking in Stylecraft DK. It is a free pattern by Kate Eastwood found in this link:
https://blog.lovecrochet.com/spring-sampl er-shawl-week-4-b…/
It has so much texture! Would you like to give a try and learn New stitches?
Can't believe it's Sunday already. Have had an amazing weekend in Bushmills. Found the lovely Margaret's wool shop and couldn't resist this merino and mohair Donegal DK yarn. Love my felted sheep from @thedesignerieshop where you can see the crafters in action. I have been preparing for next week's cable workshop in between walking, shopping and eating a fabulous meal @thefrenchrooms.
I hope your having a lovely weekend whatever you are up to. 🤗

Are you looking for a knitting project for a boy? I am really enjoying to knit this jumper in Drops Merino Extra Fine. It is a free pattern knitted top down on circular needles. So far it is working well!
Anne just finished her Sweet Pea CAL and is waiting for the boarder pattern to be released. And you? How is your projects progressing?
Mary has finished knitting this beautiful rainbow unicorn blanket with the perfect Stylecraft DK combination.
