Reflecting on how my love for both designing and crocheting blankets has grown into something so much more, pairing that passion with my fascination for Scandinavian folk art led me to create the Feeling Folksy Lapghan—a project that brought me so much joy and a fresh wave of inspiration.
The Story Behind the Feeling Folksy Lapghan
Scandinavian folk art is known for its vibrant colours, intricate motifs, and natural themes. I’ve always been drawn to these elements, so when I set out to design my lapghan, I wanted to capture that spirit. The centrepiece is a bold statement flower, surrounded by panels and granny squares, each adorned with hand-sewn appliqués. Working on this project reminded me how crafting can be both a creative escape and a source of comfort—something I discovered when my daughter and I first turned to crochet during challenging times.
If you’re looking to try something new, the Feeling Folksy Lapghan is an advanced beginner piece that incorporates trebles, popcorn stitch, and shell stitch throughout. The strong, solid colours reinforce that traditional folk style, making it a standout addition to any home. You’ll find this pattern, along with other unique crochet patterns and handcrafted creations. Each piece is designed to bring beauty and comfort, whether you’re gifting it to someone special or treating yourself.
