Welcome to the first in a series of posts for my very first CAL! I'm nervous about putting this design out into the world in CAL form since it's something I've never done before.

It should come as no surprise that a lot of my designs are inspired by geometry. Patterns of shapes leap out at me from fabrics, art pieces, and even light fixtures and floor tiles.

My Dutch Crochet Adventure

In late September, I traveled across the pond to the Netherlands for the first time. The trip was a 40th birthday present to myself.
