Day 24: Have you ever made your own pattern or dyed your own yarn? How did it turn out?

Haha, joke question?!

I've written some patterns, but never dyed yarn, though I would like to. My first 'published' pattern was Fun Egg Cosies back in about 2009...






... and my newest is going to be Morris Mouth - out next month :)


I like writting patterns, I find it really rewarding. I would much rather make up a pattern as I go along than follow one. Even when following my own patterns I usually change something about it, to make it different or to improve it. I am currently working on a new Sam The Teddy :)

  1. Oh dear little morris mouth! ^.^ I hope people buy his pattern in the etsy store! Lol. You never know, and i just hope he is popular because i think he is really cute, what i drew originally as just a mouth design and had him around it as a muse you turned the entire thing into a beautiful pattern! <3
