Thoughts, trends, knowledge & inspiration for modern knitting and crochet — now also on CrazyPatterns
In addition to my own blog, I've recently started publishing regular editorial guest articles and column-style features directly on CrazyPatterns.
These editorials complement my blog with additional topics, trends, expert knowledge, textile inspiration, creative ideas and free patterns — sometimes more personal, sometimes more technical, and sometimes simply inspired by everyday creative life.
On this page, I gradually collect all published articles in one clear and easy-to-browse place.
