As spring turns to summer and the temperatures rise, I can’t help but to turn my attention to linen yarn. Lovely, lovely linen, so light and airy with a beautiful drape.

I’m Marie Segares from Underground Crafter and I’m excited to share another free crochet shawl pattern with you today. As the weather gets warmer, I love to play with crochet lace. On the other hand, warmer weather usually means the return of air conditioning. I combined my love of lace explorations with my desire to have cozy […]
I’m Marie Segares from Underground Crafter. I don’t know about you, but I’m very excited about spring! I was inspired by the return of flowers, leaves, and other signs of warmer weather to design this 6-inch granny square. Crochet granny square patterns are the perfect portable work in the progress for the warmer months ahead because […]
