The second edition of a brand-new concept is here. The Guy with the Hook’s (TGWTH) magazine is something I have worked on for a long time. The idea for the magazine is to display a very big, new crochet pattern from my hand. Besides this crochet pattern, there are also some fun articles to read, personal words, photos and illustrations, colorful designs, and, of course…some interesting facts. It has to offer more than a static crochet pattern.

For this second edition, I have chosen nature as inspiration!

For a long time, a pattern idea in my mind involved lots of color, blossoms, and flowers. It would have to feel like walking through a garden and exploring all kinds of exotic and beautiful plants – with the most beautiful flowers. I’ll start with just a straightforward flower, and from there, the pattern evolved naturally, growing and rambling through new parts of the garden, showing different colors and plants. I have created small parts throughout the design, making working on this piece fun. It will let you explore the garden and know what you are crocheting. Enjoy this lovely walk on a sunny day through the secret garden I created!

This pattern is also available as a digital purchase in my Etsy or Ravelry shop.
