Free Crochet Patterns That Turn Out Like the Photo
From a keychain you can make tonight to the blanket you’ll use for years. Every pattern here is one I’ve made myself, more than once, so the photo shows what you’ll really end up with.

Hey, I'm Maren!
I started crocheting the way most people do: badly, with a fox for my sister’s baby shower that looked nothing like the picture.
Novacrochet exists because I got tired of patterns that photographed better than they worked, so every pattern here gets designed, crocheted, and rewritten by hand, more than once, before it’s published. If it doesn’t turn out the way the photo shows, it doesn’t go up.
