I’m so happy to present another new design that was many years in the making: the Barn Owl! Barn Owls are my favourite owl, and adding a Barn Owl option to my Owl Collection was always part of my plan. Out of interest, I thought I’d look back at my digital notes to see how […]

Two-Tone Heart crochet pattern for Ukraine
I had a request earlier this week in the PlanetJune Discord group to modify my Love Hearts pattern to look like the Ukrainian flag, and that was a request I just couldn’t refuse. I thought it would be simple, but I made prototypes to figure out the straightest line… It’s *not* what you’d think – […]
more Giant Amigurumi!
There’s something about giant amigurumi that’s just so appealing. I love how quickly you can make a huge soft toy or decoration! So on December 1st I tweeted: I may have just decided to crochet a giant purple mushroom and a giant blue gecko… These seem like entirely reasonable and useful items that need to […]
Reindeer / Caribou crochet pattern

Left: Classic Blue Turtle Beach blanket; Right: Teal Ombré […]
worsted weight yarn comparison: huge update!
I published my original worsted weight yarn comparison almost a decade ago, as a way to show that, even though two yarns are both labelled as 100% acrylic and worsted weight, they may be too different (in terms of thickness, softness and/or shininess) to mix within the same project and get a good result. Since […]
Baby Sea Turtle Hatchlings applique crochet pattern
Since I released my Baby Sea Turtle Appliqué pattern, I’ve had multiple requests from people making a Turtle Beach blanket and wanting matching flat turtle eggs, hatching turtles and swimming turtle hatchlings to complete the scene. Some of my best ideas come directly from my customers, and this was one of them: of course I […]
