I can’t understate how excited I am about the Restless Rows Collection. As someone with a mind that’s always running, crochet has been a consistent way that I can sit down with the chaos swirling in my head and find some calm. This group of patterns is meant to capitalize on the things that have always helped me find that space—repetition and most importantly.. NO COUNTING (except for the starting chain.. no way around that..)!
These patterns are made for the crocheter who needs/desires movement, but also ease.
First up for the Restless Rows Collection is the Restless Rows Crochet Hand Towel! Those clean lines are a perfect add your kitchen—simple but elegant.
