September Summary
August was pretty busy, September didn’t slow down.
September 1st started my 3rd CAL (Crochet-A-Long)! The Abstract Queen is a beautiful, big queen-size blanket that uses motifs from my small abstract squares. This was my first CAL to be offered in both techniques: LFM and Mosaic.
You can find the Abstract Queen on Ravelry and Etsy and also for free, here on the blog.
Don’t forget to create your project on ravelry (with at least one picture) to enter the weekly draw!
Quite a few people have asked about making the Abstract Queen smaller – and there’s no easy way to do that. Many mosaic patterns out there are just repeats of 8 or 12 or some small number like that but this was drawn up more like a single image (like the Speedy Train). You can cut the end off if you want, but it wasn’t designed for that.
I did draw up a smaller blanket using the same abstract themes and I call it the Abstract Princess. You can get that pattern on Ravelry and Etsy.
My 33rd birthday meant a sale for you: for a few days everything was 33% off and a lot of you grabbed some new patterns! I can’t wait to see all your new projects!
Speaking of new projects… I really meant to just focus on getting the mosaic instructions for the patterns I already have. I really didn’t plan on creating new patterns. But, then my husband lost his job and I wanted the instant gratification that comes from a new pattern (or two). 🤣
All of my new patterns come with interlocking and mosaic instructions. And I publish them to Ravelry and Etsy. These are the new ones this month:
I did also manage to update these patterns to include the mosaic instructions (the interlocking patterns are still there, don’t worry!). This is the Ravelry list and these were added to my MOSAIC BUNDLE:
- Make A Wish
- Star Trek 20 (Free!) (Also free on my blog)
- But First, Coffee
- Football Scarf
- Wild and Free Moose
- 8th Note 20
- Fishies 20
- Fishies Scarf
- Skyline Shawl
- Waves Shawl
- Moonlight On The City Shawl
Then I updated these patterns on Etsy and I learned that there is no easy way to get updated patterns to my customers on Etsy! 😱 So, that really disappoints me and I don’t know what to do to fix that.
If you have purchased on Etsy and you want an update please send me a message asking for the pattern, including your email address!
- Make A Wish
- But First, Coffee
- Football Scarf
- Wild and Free Moose
- Skyline Shawl
- Fishies Scarf

- Moonlight On The City Shawl
October is sure to be just as busy! We have moved into a small apartment temporarily while my husband looks for a job. Depending on where he gets a job, we may be doing another big move right away here. I am sure the second move will go smoother because of all the packing and unpacking practice we have now lol. Thanks for sticking with me through this big transition!
