Knitting: Mid-calf Socks
In February 2024, I released the Simplicity Socks pattern, which targeted a beginner knitter or beginner sock knitter. The Simplicity Socks pattern took a basic vanilla sock and gave it some ‘flair’ by adding a garter stitch panel. I wanted to show knitters that there are so many possibilities for creating socks, and also wanted to make the pro...

Knitting: Mid-calf Socks
Initially the thought of knitting a pair of socks terrified me, however, since hosting a sock-along in 2020, I have become somewhat obsessed with knitting socks. They are small projects that can be taken everywhere and knit up rather quickly. Given my obsession, I would like to share the joy of knitting socks with other knitters whether you are...

This blanket is made as a tribute to Aneesa Moola who passed on 7 August 2019. The centre of the blanket is a 47-round mandala, each round commemorating a surgery she had, the first when she was just 6 years old.

After the crazy mayhem of 2019, we are now starting to wind down and look forward to a period of rest and relaxation. All projects that require focus and attention are put aside, but your hands have become accustomed to working on something, that you long for your hook and yarn. Perhaps you are travelling to your holiday destination and just ne...

Knitting: Cowl
In the beginning is my first knitted pattern, hence the name. You will need to be able to knit, but don’t panic if you haven’t attempted stranded colourwork before. This is a simple pattern that will help you gain confidence in this technique. The pattern is intentionally busy to help you gain expertise in colourwork knitting, but after ever...

Crochet: Afghan block
This square is inspired by the Jon Bon Jovi song – A Bed of Roses, which was playing on the radio during my drive home from work. As I sang along (completely off key), I thought about the Rosalee square I designed a few years ago, where the popcorn stitches resembled little rosebuds. This has been one of my favourite squares to date. You can fi...

Crochet: Afghan block
The name Calytrix is a girl’s name of Latin origin meaning ‘star-flower’. Given that the centre of the square looks a little like a star flower, I’ve decided to call this square Calytrix. This square was designed for the Friends Around the World 5th Anniversary CAL. It’s an honour to be part of this CAL.

Crochet: Shawl / Wrap
The Alex Wrap is a spin-off from the Alex Blanket (https://creativekogi.com/pattern/alex/), but made with a super soft and light strandy cotton yarn. The stitches work well with the yarn in that it creates an almost lacy pattern, but without large holes. This is a simple project that you can do in just a few evenings in front of the TV. With th...

Crochet: Wall Hanging
We are expecting our second baby around March 2018. This is a special project, as it is a wall hanging made for the nursery. Its a super simple project with a repetition of the V st and popcorn st to create the 3-D cross. A tension test is not important, but I urge you to check that you are consistent. A simple trick it to gently tug on both si...

I was playing around and created Leah, however, as I reworked the square to write up the pattern, I decided to be a little creative and by changing just one round – in fact just one stitch on that round, I ended up something that looked quite different to the original creation. I showed both these squares to my awesome testers and we couldn’t d...

Crochet: Wall Hanging
Sometimes you just feel the need to do something different… I was a little tired of making squares and wanted to try something new, and have a few bare walls that need some colour. I have a collection of embroidery rings, which I don’t use anymore, so I decided to re-purpose them. Its a super simple pattern and you can follow it as is - to crea...

This square was created as a learning/teaching square to help you master the post sts, and also because it adds such amazing texture and is so pretty - probably my favorite stitches to use.

This pattern was created for my Facebook group, A Square a Week Challenge. I refer to Chloe as Nessa’s cousin, as the concept is similar (you can find the Nessa and my other squares in my Ravelry Store), however, the stitches used are quite different. It was created for my Squaries (members of the Facebook Group) to assist them and me in learni...

This square was created for the A Square a Week Challenge (Facebook Group) The name was chosen because the raised stitches look like carrots and it make me think of Peter Rabbit and hence the name Beatrix (you will understand if you know your kiddies stories).
