SPIRIT OF FLORA
The Spirit of Flora project ran as a monthly crochet along in Inside Crochet Magazine in 2023.
As the rights to the patterns have now reverted to me, we will be rereleasing the patterns over the summer months of 2024.
You can find the Getting Ready information by following this link.
You can find our notes on layout planning, finishing and blocking by following this link.
You can find YouTube videos to guide your making process by following this link.
Please note that the videos are designed to be used in conjunction with the pattern and so do not show every round of all motifs.
From April 24th 2024: You can find the first set of patterns for sale as paper brochures here.
You can find download copies via Etsy and Ravelry

This project differs to my past CAL projects in that I want to encourage you to release a little of your own design potential to create a unique and personal project. I have designed twelve patterned square blocks along with some plain blocks, all of which will be shown in alternative colour orders using a palette of thirteen yarn shades. You can seek out the shades I have used from your local Stylecraft yarn stockist or purchase a kit from us - we have them for sale on a pre-order basis and you can find them here.
Alternatively, you could choose to stash dive and use up some of the special yarns you have hidden away at home! Either way,
the emphasis will be on creating a project that suits your style and purpose. You could choose to make a large blanket using
forty-eight crochet squares, or you might want to make a smaller one using less motifs or fewer repeated blocks.
You might want to make a bag, a cushion or a shawl for example.
There are endless possibilities and I really hope you will feel inspired to join me on this exciting crochet along journey once again.
