New Pattern ~ Crochet 3D Flower Baby Blanket

Ta-dah!

Finally I can show you the project that I’ve been introducing to you through tiny little peeks in the past few weeks…

A Crochet 3D Flower Baby Blanket it is… and  I love it.

As I mentioned earlier, I had craved working on something bigger, a pattern that would repeat on and on and that would give me enough time to relax and have a good time.

And that is exactly what this blanket has brought into my life.

Although it took me about three weeks to complete it, to tell you the truth, I am very tempted to start another one, making a brighter and wilder variation of it this time. And then probably another one in yet another color scheme.

But I have to curb my enthusiasm because there are other projects on my list desperately waiting to be created…

And look, my little Toby fell in love with the blanket instantly. It was love at first sight.

Anyhow, if you like the blanket and would like to make one too, you can find the pattern in MY SHOP.

It includes 69 step-by-step pictures this time, my record so far, I think…

Enjoy!

Love,
Petra

Hello, dear friends!

I hope you are having a wonderful time and enjoying life’s little pleasures as much as possible.

Here’s what made me happy recently…

… Easter! Because during Easter one has a permission to eat as many chocolate eggs as desired. I live by this rule and I am loving it!

Celebrating One Year

It’s incredible how quickly time flies, isn’t it?

Today, it is exactly one year since I opened my Etsy shop.

Frankly, that day I knew very little about how dear that place would become to my heart, how much it would motivate my creativity… and how my crochet patterns would make some of you happy… and all that happened… and made me very, very, very happy too.

I’d like to express my big THANK YOU for your loyalty and all your kindness! You are the best!!

And now I think I am going to celebrate with some eggnog. And right after that I am going to work on something new and colorful for you to enjoy…

Cheers!

See you soon!

Let’s celebrate simplicity today once again.

This time with some deliciously amazing light Fettuccine Alfredo.

This version of world-renowned creamy pasta contains no butter base and instead of ‘full-power’ cream it uses half and half.

A perfect indulgence with no sins involved… ahh…
