Guess who had a blond moment last night? Yes, me, that was me! I scheduled classes for Thanksgiving weekend because I did not remember that it was Thanksgiving weekend, whooopsy. They’ve been pushed a week, and the post from yesterday is updated. I also added an option to save on the price of a class by registering at least a week before beginning of classes.

Few weeks ago a fall issue of Interweave Crochet came out. Among many beautiful designs is my Blueberry Popover.
It not a secret that its very exciting to see any of one’s creation in a magazine. But this one is especially meaningful for me. The idea for this pullover came to me when I was starting to knit, yes, to knit. It was the first real thing I’ve ever knitted. It had raglan sleeves and bell sleeves, and rolled edges. I always knew that I want to recreate it in crochet and submitted the idea to Interweave for the fall call. It was not originally called Blueberry Popover and wasn’t planned for a kid. It was called Inside Out pullover to highlight the fact that after the sweater when finished has to be turned inside out to show an unusual texture of stitches. It was also planned for adults. When they came back to me with a proposal to design it for a kids, naturally I said, sure! And the Blueberry Popover was born! I absolutely love how the seater turned out. Unfortunately, the pullover is being modeled a size too big, so many elements of the design are hard to see, like bell shaped sleeves. It’s still very cute and the model is adorable.
