Two bags. One day. Zero unfinished projects. 🧶✨

I'm hosting the **From Hook to Handbag Retreat** with my friend Lynette, and I cannot wait for this one.

You'll spend a full day with us making TWO fashionable bags — one in classic granny stitch, one in Tunisian crochet — with all the yarn, hooks, and materials provided. Plus a catered brunch, because stitching is always better with good snacks.

📍 Fort Washington, MD
📅 November 7, 2026
🕘 9am – 3pm

Only 25 spots available, so this will fill up quick. 👜

Get your hooks ready to make a HUGE IMPACT this October!

❤️ ONE HAT AT A TIME, WE MAKE A DIFFERENCE. ❤️

Here's what I love most about the Crochet Cancer Challenge…

It's not about one person doing something BIG. It's about a community of people each doing something small. One crocheter makes one hat... Another crocheter makes one hat... And another... And another... Until those individual hats become THOUSANDS of hats made with love for people affected by cancer.❤️

That is the power of this community.

When we crochet together, our small acts of kindness become something much bigger than any one of us could accomplish alone. And YOU can be part of it!

That's it. One hat can be your contribution to something truly meaningful.

You can find all the details for this year's challenge in the main blog post:

A HUGE thank-you to a few of this year's amazing designers who are helping make this Challenge possible:

Y’all I decided to crochet while editing a video for my latest crochet pattern the releases tomorrow…

I love teaching crochet but editing videos is not the most fun for me, especially after a busy work day.

Anyways, from the little bit of audio you heard, can you guess what pattern is joining the Creations by Courtney collection?

I think you’re going to love it, and I’ll share more tomorrow.

If you want to know what I’m currently stitching, I’m using Caron Blossom Cakes in Azalea to make a dress. I may post a pic to my Story… it won’t make sense though 🤣

What are you working on this ?

Want to play with stitch height and shaping in crochet?

The Slope Boho Cowl is a fun project that uses multiple stitch heights — from slip stitches all the way to double treble stitches — to create a unique sloping shape.

It’s a great project for:
- Practicing stitch variety
- Exploring texture
- Turning simple stitches into an interesting shape

Plus it only takes a couple skeins of worsted weight yarn.

Do you enjoy patterns that mix lots of stitch types, or do you prefer repeating patterns?

Thinking of spring...

As the weather warms, some think it's time to work on small projects, but it's an opportunity to think about layers.

Depending on your locale, the Genevieve Top offers you three options to match the warmer temps of spring - sleeveless, pull on sleeves, and long sleeve.

Head over to Creations by Courtney to learn more about this size-inclusive pattern, and then tell me, which version works best for your springtime plans?

EEEEEKKKKKK!!!!

I was so excited about this release and would have told you earlier but work and kids’ homework kept getting in the way…

Anyways, you heard Brooklyn 🐶 and I correctly — has brought back a fan favorite with the Odyssey II!

I love my original Odyssey hooks for the weight, shape and smoothness with all fiber types I used.

Furls listened to their customers to make the OG even better and I can’t wait to feel and stitch with the Odyssey II.

RUN 🏃 to the 🔗 in my bio or my Stories to order yourself 1 or 12…

Size E/3.5mm is already sold out in Noir 👀

I am planning a full comparison in case you’re on the fence about the new vs. old and other style hooks.
And yes both of my daughters were in the background in case Brooklyn no longer wanted to be an unpaid actor. 😂
