Hello & welcome to Renate Kirkpatrick’s Freeform Crochet~Knit~Fibre Designs.
Explore the many pages of useful & inspiring information to help with your crochet journey: Freeform Crochet, Crochet Tips & Tricks, My Published Books, & more.
Please take a moment to check out my Shop where you’ll find my freeform & other crochet pieces: Hats & Headwear, Scarves & Shawls, Handbags, Tea Cosies, Patterns & E-books, & other great stuff.
The Gallery pages are for your enjoyment; you’ll find works that have sold, been donated or given away & happily residing somewhere in the world where I hope they continue to give pleasure & joy.
There’s still much to learn about rebuilding pages & configuring the new shop. Your support so far is greatly appreciated. Thank you…

Hi, Renate, One correction: I’m either “buyathread,” or Fern, not Liza. I just posted an article about bead artist Liza Lou, so that may be what you’re thinking of. Thanks for the Ravelry suggestion. I’m not familiar with the site but will check it out.

thanks Liza, I’ve been made very welcome here not to mention learning lots – have 1000’s of questions, so most likely I’ll be visiting the forum often – thanks for taking the time to look – I see you have some interesting things too – are you in Ravelry? It’s a great place to show off your yarns – all the best – R
