Sustainability isn't a trend – it's a mindset.
While organic cotton, hemp, and linen have become mainstays in eco-friendly yarn collections, new, exotic fibers are beginning to make waves. Among them: cactus yarn.

Sustainability is trending – but what does it really mean when it comes to yarn? Words like organic, eco, or recycled sound great, but not all green labels are what they seem. In this post, we take a closer look at what makes yarn truly sustainable – and how you can make better choices with confidence.

When it comes to spinning yarn, many think of the classic two-ply or three-ply approach. But there's a technique that offers something uniquely flexible, beautiful, and clever: Navajo Plying, also known as Chain Plying. It turns a single strand into a perfectly balanced 3-ply yarn – no extra bobbins required. ✨

Amigurumi is more than just a trend – it's a creative playground of tiny stitches with big personality. Whether cute, quirky, or delightfully spooky, crochet figures come in all shapes and styles.

Fun Fact: Thermochromic yarn was originally developed in the 1980s for swimwear. With exposure to UV light or heat, it changes color—perfect for self-knitted summer accessories that "glow" in sunlight and fade in the shade.

Chunky is the new classy!
What was once considered bulky or clumsy is now bold, stylish, and surprisingly comforting. Thick yarns, oversized stitches, and quick projects are not just trending – they're part of a creative movement that values impact, mindfulness, and cozy aesthetics.

If you've ever knitted socks, sleeves, or beanies, you know: circular knitting can be surprisingly tricky. The cable twists, the double-pointed needles (DPNs) slip, and suddenly there's a gap at the beginning of the round. 😖

Mohair is the diva among yarns: as light as air, fluffy like a cloud, and glowing with silky elegance.

Have you ever looked at your crochet piece and thought, "Why does this look a little… off?" The rows aren't straight, the stitches vary in size, and the whole thing just doesn't look as clean as you'd hoped – even though you followed the pattern exactly. 😬

As soon as the warm sun kisses your skin and the flip-flops come out of hiding, it's time to grab your yarn and start hooking! Summer is the perfect season for airy crochet projects that are stylish, easy to make, and full of personality. 😍

What do delicate lace from Versailles and colorful yarn graffiti on lampposts have in common? Crochet.
The history of this versatile craft goes back much further than many think – and reveals just how creative, resilient, and adaptable textile techniques can be.

Sometimes, we don't need another sweater – we just need stillness.
Crocheting can be deeply meditative, especially when we let go of productivity and embrace the process. Mandala and Zentangle-inspired patterns offer a way to connect creativity, rhythm, and self-care in one flow.
