I’m working on a new pattern called Adrian and making pillow covers with it at the moment. What are you working on?

Today is a great day to start a sale, I feel. That means that when you use the code SALE35 on Ravelry or Etsy, you will get 35% off on as many patterns of me as you like. Link to both stores are in my bio.

Happy crocheting!

Love, Maud

My mother’s handwriting
I wanted the words ‘Giving myself lots of grace + space to grieve’ in my Grace blanket to be in my mother’s handwriting. This is how I did it. I love it so much to see her handwriting on such a scale. So happy with the result!
Look in the comments for more pictures.

I’m so happy that my pattern Grace is finding its way to the people who need it. Someone wrote to me: “I got a copy right away, my mom passed away almost 3 years ago and it still hurts so much, you have no idea how much this blanket means to me!”

My pattern Grace is not for everyone (right now), but it is perfect for everyone who is grieving a big loss.
Please forward this message to everyone who you think should know about this pattern. I really want this one to find its audience. Thank you! 🙏🏼
Love, Maud

These words resonated so much with me that I decided to design a blanket with these words written on/in it in my mothers handwriting. It was quite a process. I hope crocheting this blanket can give solace to other people like it did to me.

Today is the day I finally get to publish a new pattern again: Grace. When my mom died in August I got this amazing message from @jigeha.bsky.social: Hope you’re giving yourself lots of grace and space to grieve.

Just one more day… and then my new pattern Grace will be out in the world!

First day of the month. I want to play the minimalism game: get rid of 1 thing on day 1, 2 on day 2, 31 on day 31. Looking for my first thing to get rid of. This book, which is amazing, but thankfully isn’t for me anymore.

Giving myself lots of…
More coming tomorrow!
A sneak preview of my upcoming pattern that is for all of us who are grieving a loss.

Today Patrick and I took photos and videos for my new blanket, the pattern of which will be released soon.
This resulted in, among other things, this teaser that invited me to finally post here about something else. I've lost 30 kilos (aka 66 lbs)!

I’ve started a version of Bejeweled. Some squares are bejeweled and some are not. Using a variegated yarn, which is lovely, but also so thin… #bejeweledblanket #mosaiccrochet #overlaymosaiccrochet

Crocheting the final stitches of my latest blanket Grace. The pattern is for everyone who - like me - is grieving a big loss. Designing and crocheting this one has been very good to me. Now the last stitches and getting rid of all the cat hair on it 😂

Playing with colors is such fun because of the colors. But if you add the sound that is like a xylophone: magic!

I’ve selected the colors I want to use to crochet my next blanket: 52 colors of Stylecraft special DK for color B and Purple Smoke as color A. Can’t wait to start this one, but I have to restrain myself because I really have to finish my work in progress first. And release the pattern…

All the pegs of Stylecraft special DK together. Can’t wait to select the colors for my newest pattern idea. 🤗

I finally made pegs of the twenty (!) new colors in Stylecraft Special DK. I love how these colors compliment the already 100 other colors and can’t wait to get to play with them. But first I need to finish my current WIP. #color #playingwithcolors #stylecraftspecialdk #mosaiccrochet

Closeup. Another picture of Bejeweled. In this picture you can see how using many colors of Stylecraft Special DK created a gradient. Link to pattern in my bio. #crochet #mosaiccrochet #bejeweledblanket

Another picture of the beautiful Bejeweled blanket. I used 47 colors in total: Burgundy for my color A and 46 different ones for my color B. I just love playing with colors!
Pattern available through the links in my bio.
