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.

As the days get warmer I find myself putting away my thick woollen projects and looking for finer and cooler yarns to work with. The “you spin me round necklace” was born out of this desire and is full of

Did you know that September 12 is International Crochet Day? I love that my favourite crafty activity has it’s own day, and to celebrate I thought I’d share some of my favourite crochet inspired photos with you. I’m currently working

My Coconut Ice Chevron Blanket has been quite popular so I thought I would share with you how I came up with this design and a bit more about the materials I used. I was inspired to create a modern version

It doesn’t snow where I live, it just doesn’t get cold enough. This means I’m generally not inspired by snowflakes, I save this for trips to the snowfields. When I came across the pattern for a snowflake scarf in Interweave

Lately I’ve been working on a huge crochet project, it’s probably the biggest creative endeavour I’ve ever undertaken. My drive to finish it was tested, but I’m pleased to announce that it’s successfully finished! Yay! I think I’m overjoyed, chuffed

Do you have a heap of unfinished objects or projects (otherwise known as UFOs) in a stash somewhere? Projects that you start but never seem to get around to finishing? I have had my fair share of UFOs – knitted

Do you remember the Flourish Cushion I made back at the end of 2012? It was lovely. Well I’ve made another Flourish Cushion that’s the same but different, if you know what I mean. I’m calling it “Flourish Cushion 2”
