Chapter 13 Crochet Along 01/04/2019 Happy New Year! We begin 2019 with my last crochet-along post. Next year I will be doing something else, perhaps to do with gardening or the medical profession, to tie in with my second book The Words Shimmer. Maybe unknown facts! Send me your ideas! Pattern one is a simple 'how-to' for crocheted hearts, by Cindy. These are easy as pie and shouldn't tax even the most beginner crocheter. Let me know if you have a go! Pattern two are these - oh my god so cute - lovely butterflies, by Cheryl on

Chapter 10 Crochet Along 11/23/2018 I know. It's late. I've been busy. Life...meh. Yeah, I'm aware I'm a few days late. But, guys, I have news! We bought a house! So things are a bit hectic in the home of Matthews at the moment. But, never fear. It's feeling Christmassy in this part of the counrty too so my first pattern to share is this Jolly Holly from Attic24. Perfect for adorning a piece, or yourself, during the festive season. Hooked On You has a Christmas theme, and the penultimate chapter takes place on Christmas Day.

Chapter 9 Crochet Along 11/09/2018 Crochet Smochet... Hello guys. Glad to see there are a few more joining us! It's 3 months until Hooked On You will be released, and things are moving forward. First, however, the crochet along. Just one pattern today, a Pizza Garland, by the fabulous Twinkie Chan. Brilliant for parties. In other news... Technology failed me miserably this month. An email from my editor ended up in my 'spam' and I only found it by pure chance. I can only blame my new phone for working against me. Suffice to say,
