Crochet for wellbeing
Crochet geekiness for the nerdy & alternative
Crochet warm welcome to everyone!
Hello there! I’m so excited to share The Wonky Bag free crochet pattern with you! This fun bag is the perfect project for all skill levels. It’s got a unique, charmingly imperfect look that I just adore, and it’s a fantastic way to practice some basic stitches. Grab your hook, pick your favourite yarn, or use up your stash, and let’s make something wonderful together! Check out my blog for The Story Behind featuring the original inspiration, notes on construction and customisation, and my Wonky journey.

Me and my Autumn Wonky Bag

Using colours inspired by Autumn. I love the changing hues this season brings! I have so much to say and share about the Wonky Bag. Are you curious ?
Blow me down with a feather
A few years, I couldn’t have imagined calling myself a crochet designer (hello imposter syndrome my old friend/foe) – but here I am, launching my first pattern!
Just like me, this pattern might be a bit wonky and imperfect, which is why I need your help.
I’m offering the Wonky Bag pattern free because I want to learn from you. Try it out, tell me what works and what doesn’t, what could be clearer.
And if you make one please share a photo and tell me about your yarn choices, your colour story, what you loved or what frustrated you. Let’s figure this out together.
