7-favourite-crochet-things

Did you know that today is International Crochet Day? How fantastic is it that there is a day for crochet? I thought it would be lovely to celebrate with you, so here are 7 of my favourite crochet things.

One – I adore my Tour de Crochet chunky floor rug that I made using my arms – no crochet hook required! You can make one too because the pattern is available here.

Three – I’m looking forward to using this White Gum Wool that was hand dyed by Jenna at Nunnaba – it feels soooo soft and the colours are amazing.

Hi! I’m Lynda (she/her) and I’m the lady behind Homelea Lass.

I’m here to help you improve your crochet skills and to help you find peace and happiness in your creative time.

In 2012 I was knocked down by debilitating chronic fatigue that put an end to my blossoming career as a Civil Engineer and Project Manager.

Early on in my illness, I discovered that I could crochet without draining my energy, so I spent my days crocheting, researching yarns and designing – this is how Homelea Lass was born.

My experience with chronic illness has guided me to combine my passion for exceptional design and crochet. I’ve developed a way of crocheting that’s enjoyable, easy to understand, and maximises it’s relaxing and wellbeing properties.

As my healing journey has progressed, Homelea Lass has grown, and I feel blessed that I can share my love of Australian merino wool, chunky crochet and creativity with you.
