  • Noggin :) Super Chunky Hand Knitted Campervan Beanie Bobble Hats

    Noggin 🙂 Super Chunky Hand Knitted Campervan Beanie Bobble Hats

    I love super chunky yarn!  I loose interest far too quickly if I knit with anything less than Double Knit weight yarn so Super Chunky is a firm favourite.  I’ve made up many designs for patterns using Wendy Serenity Super Chunky, a mix of Alpaca, wool and acrylic.  Sadly, it is now discontinued but I […]

  • Stash busting Pop Art campervan cushion cover

    Stash busting Pop Art campervan cushion cover

    I’m pretty sure most of us can’t resist squirrelling away lots of yarn, even those little bits and bobs that have been rescued from partially created items.  It seems such a waste to get rid of them yet they aren’t quite long enough to make into “proper” items.  That’s when stash busting patterns are perfect!

    It’s taken me a while to get this how I wanted it but I’ve finally managed to make a crocheted Beetle Cushion! I hope you like it! I’m hoping to get the pattern written up soon and will add it to the shop so please keep watching 🙂

With it’s friendly shape, the VW Beetle was the inspiration for my latest crochet pattern, the Hug-a-Bug.  As with most classic cars, he has been […]

  • Surf Bus Campervan Tapestry Pattern

    Surf Bus Campervan Tapestry Pattern

    This “Surf Bus” is one three campervan designs which my very clever Dad has created (he’s also done a Bay and a T25 but I’m leaving those as a surprise for another day!). We thought this design would look great as a cushion front so we’ve created a chart for you to follow and make up […]

  • Knit your own Campervan

    Knit your own Campervan

    Have you ever wanted to knit your own campervan?  I couldn’t resist having a go at knitting a 3D campervan. The campervan is made using double knitting yarn and surrounds a framework of plastic canvas. At 30cm long there is plenty of room in there for a mini teddy or two.  Just think of all […]

  • Crochet your own Campervan

    Crochet your own Campervan

    Up until now most of my Campervan projects have been knitted so I thought it was time to give crochet a go. I’ve had the idea of making a 3D model of a Campervan in the back of my mind for a while and crochet seemed like a great way to make something pretty structured. […]
