News from the Parc: Heather Davidson of Crochet 'n' Create a Multi-National, Operose Designer.9/6/2020 Heather Davidson, author and proprietor of Crochet 'n' Create is one of my favorite designers on the internet. I am amazed at how versatile and prolific she is as a designer while maintaining high standards.
I could go on all day with the various categories of patterns designed by Heather Davidson. However I promise I won't do that to you LOL. Therefore I decided to keep the discussion to the pattern types and features I use the most often. The first feature I particularly appreciate is the stitch tutorials. I have a mad love for trying new stitches and stitch combinations. There are a variety of crochet stitch styles for which Heather gives clear instructions. I've created blankets, wash and dishcloths out of these stitch instructions. If you crochet check these stitches out. The instructions are written in both USA and UK terms. Those who have read my original (now Tabitha's Mountain Rhapsody Family Artists) blog or visited my Facebook page are keenly aware of how much I love crocheting for babies. Heather Davidson is a prolific designer of baby clothes/sets. Baby boy, girl, and unisex patterns (many free!) are written for premature to 18 month sizes. There is a large array of pattern styles too. Whimsical to sporty fashion patterns to suit almost anyone's taste. My personal favorites? The Butterfly Baby Crochet Jacket and the Knobbly Baby Jacket. Both of these sweater patterns can be paired with other patterns on Crochet 'n' Create making them a great gift. Besides being super cute each has a lovely texture fantastic for developing brains. Baby blankets are a big part of my work. Both in my business and in my gift giving. Heather has designed many beautiful (and I mean beautiful) blanket patterns. In fact just this evening I bought the Crochet Pattern Bundle of 20 Crochet Patterns from Heather Davidson's Etsy page. (For a small fee crocheters can purchase Heather's patterns in an advertisement free format from the Etsy page. A worth while expenditure.) The patterns from Heather Davidson are well written and easy to follow for both UK and USA crocheters. Even if you don't crochet looking over the many ideas on Heather Davidson's website is worthwhile. Gift giving is much easier if you have ideas in your arsenal! If you do crochet I hope you'll give Heather Davidson's pages a look. You'll note she's on social media. Why not give her a follow?! That's it for the blog this week. Thank you for spending some time with me on this week's blog. I truly appreciate it.
