Wow, what a month March has been! It’s been full of exciting releases, creative projects, and a little bit of much-needed rest and reset. Here’s a look at everything that’s been happening in my crochet world this month.

🌸 Spring in Bloom CAL – Now Live!

March saw the launch of my Spring in Bloom CAL in collaboration with Wool Warehouse! It officially started on March 26th and will run for six weeks, with a free pattern for everyone to enjoy, you can check it out here.

📰 “A Spot of Spring” Blanket – Featured in Inside Crochet!

Another highlight of March was seeing my A Spot of Spring Blanket pattern featured in Issue 177 of Inside Crochet Magazine! 🌷 This design is bright, fun, and perfect for adding a touch of spring to your home.

💖 Kaleidobobble Baby Blanket – Thank You!

I also released the Kaleidobobble Baby Blanket this month, and I’m absolutely thrilled with how many of you have bought it and started making your own versions! 🥰 It brings me so much joy to see your creations—so keep tagging me in your makes! I love sharing and celebrating them with you all. You can find the pattern here.

🌸 Blossom Heart Baby Blanket – Coming Soon!

This month, I also sent out my Blossom Heart Baby Blanket pattern to my wonderful testers! This design features Stylecraft’s new Soft Pastels range, including a beautiful new colourway from their Batik Elements range. I can’t wait to share the finished pattern with you soon—keep an eye out!

✨ A Little Personal Update

March has been a busy one outside of crochet too! My two boys (pets, not actual children! 😂) had two separate vet visits, but thankfully, both are doing well now.

I also took a solo trip to the caravan for a few days to focus on work, get some fresh air, and take a little time to reset after a hectic period. It was lovely to have some quiet time and take the boys on lots of walks.

I had a lovely trip to Leeds where I met up with some wonderful crochet friends—it was so nice to finally meet some of you in real life! We talked all things crochet, got our WIPs out, and enjoyed a fantastic lunch at The Queens Hotel in Leeds. Thank you for having us—it was such a special day! 💕

And a special mention—my beautiful sister is absolutely loving her Pulse Festival Blanket in the Fiesta colourway, which I gifted to her for her birthday in her favorite colors. It makes me so happy to see her enjoying it! 🥰

But the best news of all… Katie is home from uni for a few weeks! 🥰 We picked her up, and it’s so nice to have her back.
