Embark on a Mindful Crochet Journey with the Multi award winning Luxury Beginners Kit...

Introducing my Luxury Beginners Mindful Crochet Kit - 'Seedlings'.

This kit will aim to teach you how to crochet a lap blanket mindfully. 

       

Below are some examples of kits that have already been made and received by my customers. As you can see, each kit is totally unique. We will work together to find the perfect combination of yarn, fabric and even hook colours.

The kit has received 5* reviews on TrustPilot and on my facebook page.
I have also received a Small Business award from a Dragons Den Judge
 
The pattern book has been designed to teach the new crocheter everything they need to know as a beginner, from how to read yarn labels to how to read crochet charts.
 
I am conscious that people have different learning styles, so in order to be as inclusive as I can as a new business I have designed the pattern to include the following:
 
1. Written instructions in non crochet short hand and in shorthand for those who want to retry the pattern again using the standard method
2. Photos next to every set of instruction
3. Charts next to every instruction and in the back of the pattern book for those who prefer to learn this way
4. Access to a private facebook group 

The pattern book contains the following:

  • Contents
  • About me - I will give a little introduction into who I am and why I have made this kit
  • Full descriptions and explanations of what you have received in your kit
  •  Introduction to: Yarn labels, materials, shapes Hooks, sizing and conversion
  • Crochet symbols and abbreviations UK and US
  • Winding the yarn and yarn bowl

What sets the kit apart from other Beginners Kits?

I feel that the inclusion of my multi award winning Journey Journal is what sets my kit apart from other beginner kits, the journal has been designed to support you throughout your making and mindfulness journey.
 
The journal is designed to capture not just your learning experience but your thoughts, inspirations, emotions and what makes you - you.
 
The Journal begins with pages dedicated to your crochet journey, if you struggle to write about your feelings I have provided dandelions with pre written emotions which can be circled closest to how you feel. 
There is also space for you to write about things that you would change in your next session as it's important to always aim to improve our experience.
 
Next there are pages dedicated to mindfulness, grounding and you.
 

Why have I included so much in the kit?

Each component of the kit has been chosen with the utmost care to ensure a mindful experience, the kits are bespoke to the user, from the choice of hooks to the handmade waterproof project bag.
 

Your Mindful Crochet Experience includes the following:

Yarn: Enough to make a lap blanket. You may choose 3 separate colours, 2 of the same and 1 different

The yarn is sourced locally Pretty Knits Wool Shop Darlington 

Hooks: Ergonomic hooks, rainbow or plain (or you may choose 1 bespoke handmade hook)

Pattern: The pattern is written in US terms, I have left and right handed versions available for the same price

Waterproof project bag: I handmake a waterproof project bag for your items, we will discuss the fabric choices together (examples)

Scissors: Essential for crochet 

Darning needles: Within the crochet kit lies a humble yet indispensable tool—the darning needle! Darning needles plays a vital role in finishing your crochet projects, ensuring every stitch is neatly finished and every yarn tail is securely fastened.

Stitch markers and row counters: These unobtrusive little helpers play a vital role for even the most experienced crocheter in ensuring you don’t lose your way as you crochet your blanket. You can attach them to corners or rows.

Tape measure: This allows you to meet your gauge and match the designers crocheting style, although for this particular pattern it is not required it may become an essential piece of kit for your future journey

Yarn bowl: As you work on your crochet project, the yarn bowl serves as a focal point, inviting you to embrace the present moment. The act of gently pulling yarn from the bowl becomes a meditative exercise, fostering mindfulness and a sense of calmness. The yarn bowl is a 3d printed cat.

      

Posture cushion:

The posture cushion has two uses, the first is that it allows the crocheter to find a comfortable position, the second reason is that it feels like a cuddle. For those who struggle with physical contact or who crave it, this pillow is perfect, it provides a weighted comfort and can be moulded to most body shapes.

Fidget toys: Fidget toys are an unconventional addition to crochet kits but I am nothing if not unconventional! You may find that when learning this new skill you become frustrated, that’s OK, their inclusion in my kits allows you to stop and take a moment, squeeze your frustration into them and then go back to what you were doing, enriching the crafting experience by promoting relaxation and mental clarity.

Journey Journal: The crochet journal is designed to capture not just your learning experience but your thoughts, inspirations, emotions and what makes you - you. The Journey Journal will become a testament to your personal growth, your mindfulness, and your new skill

As described earlier the first part of the journal allows you to document your crochet journey, the next part of the journal will contain very gentle activities aimed at finding out a little bit more about you.

 

When you have purchased the kit I will contact you and depending on your preference we can chat via email or facebook to find your perfect fabric and yarn colours.

My kit is more than just a product; it is my way of building a community and taking care of our minds.
Left and right handed available.
 
Please note that the kit will take longer than 7 days for you to receive as I have to order the fabric and yarn etc and then make the bag which takes time, if however you would like a tote bag which has been pre-made by a friend you are more than welcome to specify this when we talk. I have many in stock of her amazing totes
