Lark and Yarn Bringing crochet into your everyday. Every piece has been handmade with love. Welcome to Lark and Yarn, the business that is bringing crochet into your everyday.

Lark and Yarn has its beginnings in 2016 with a single chunky crochet bead necklace. Since then, crochet hooks have become smaller and different techniques refined to bring you what you see today. My process for pattern designing is a bit ad-hoc but usually starts with an idea in my mind’s eye and then straight to crocheting, making notes and stitch diagrams, and refining along the way. Over the y

ears, I have developed my own methods to make the crocheted cotton as stiff and as durable as possible. From May 2021, with the addition of resin, all the jewellery I produce can confidently stand up to water and come out none the worse for it. Find my online shop at larkandyarn.felt.co.nz

One thing I love about crochet is that one versatile craft. Just pause and consider - from this one craft comes stunning wedding dresses AND a worm wearing a cowboy hat?!

This is a lovely wee article showcasing some fantastic crochet. Which one is your fav? If I had to pick just one, I'd have to go with the notebook page blanket. So relatable πŸ˜‚

Crochetβ€”the art of creating textiles by using a hook to interlock loops of yarnβ€”has been around for a long time, and it continues to stay relevant to people all around the world. A good example of this is the subreddit called, you guessed it, r/crochet.

Artisan market + a friend or two + coffee = the best way to spend a few hours on a cold winter's day.

A bold statement that I stand behind πŸ’― is THE BEST place to do this.

To those planning on coming along, which vendor (apart from me πŸ˜‰) are you most excited to see? Tag them to let them know!

I'll start. I'm so keen to see as this is their first market - ever! πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰

Me, explaining to a customer at Woolfeast that all my products are crocheted.

Customer: Ooh, you're a ho**er!

Another customer at the other end of the table hears: (punches air) YAY FOR HOOKERS!

πŸ‘‰ If I pick your suggestion, I'll send you a pair of that design (in a colour of your choice!) To say a massive THANK YOU πŸ™
