Knitting and crochet: trends, techniques and what fashion is wearing

I follow the fashion weeks, the trend reports and the yarn makers, and write about what I see before it reaches the shops. Here you'll find new techniques, crochet, colours and knitting history, along with my patterns that fit them.

New posts every week. Have a lovely week until then <3
