I’m a huge fan of freeform crochet. It’s akin to abstract art to me. For those of us who must follow a pattern, this is not the path to follow. But, for those who like to think outside the box, for whom a pattern is a starting point or a mere suggestion, freeform offers many hours of pleasurable crocheting. When I ran across this beautiful freeform piece – with the bonus that its creator had kept a sort of diary of its creation, well, I knew I had to share it with you.
Freeform #2
You can read about the making of this beautiful afghan here .
You’ll find lots of other good things on this blog, including some free crochet patterns. She even tells you how to use the Babette Blanket pattern to make a fantastic scarf!
That is lovely! I’m going to check out the site.
Freeform crochet… I’m learning more each day. I’m one that dislikes following a pattern. I’ve rarely did that with sewing, beadwork, paper crafts, etc. I recently started crocheting but I’m finding that I’m leaning towards the freeform approach also.
That is gorgeous!! One of these days I’m going to do some freeform. That’s very inspiring!
Thanks for the kind words! It’s so nice to have your work noticed!
Ooooh, thanks for sharing. I love that she included her whole process and the books that inspired her.
