Hello crochet friends! I am super excited and proud to finally be able to show you my finished Lord of the Rings blanket!

My name is Emma and I am the crocheter and knitter behind EmmaCraftsDesign. I learnt to knit when I was very little and taught myself to crochet when I moved to Australia in 2011 after discovering amigurumi (those cute crochet stuffed toys). Recently, I started designing my own amigurumi and crochet accessories and EmmaCraftsDesign was born. I hope you enjoy the patterns I create and that making them will bring you as much joy as I have designing them.
