"This Hearts Stripes Afghan looks so great and looks like it was a machine made afghan. I have not made it yet but have it on my to do list. I'm not a big fan of the cross stitch but will have to see how it looks without it. Not sure I'll do that part of the pattern. Otherwise, Love this one. Thank you for sharing this free afghan pattern."

"I love the edging used in the Vibrantly Vintage Crochet Edging Pattern. The corner stitch design is so beautiful, it is the highlight of the whole edging design which is very appropriate to the design of the granny squares."

"What I like about this Stitch-Sampler Throw are the colors used. I like how the light peach blended well with the greens and blues and how the orange yarn has been carefullt used on the edges."

"I like to try doing this type of project, a medley of stitches in one blanket. That must be really challenging. I wanna try this and I can't wait to start this."

"Love this! I can imagine baby lying down on the this blanket playing and waiting to be fed. It's so cute."

Dedri Uys My name is Dedri. I am a 32 year-old South African living in London with my husband, 3 gorgeous boys, and Kettle the cat.

During the day I work as a radiotherapist, planning treatment for cancer patients. At night, when the little ones have gone to bed, you will find me huddled over my crochet hook, furiously scribbling down designs on pieces of scrap paper (and occasionally having a glass of wine).

My granny taught me to crochet when I was very young, and although I was good at it, I have to admit that I wasn't overly keen. I didn't pick up a hook again until I was pregnant with my second son. Four years later I can honestly say that crochet has changed my life.
