My deepest thanks to all who have sent kind words and messages of sympathy on the recent passing of my wife, friend, partner and collaborator Irene Lundgaard.

Over the last few months I have been on a mission inspired by the Motorbike Doily I made last year for my brother Thue. I do not crochet doilies, I do not use doilies but I love the time-consuming work that the fine cotton thread offers and the fine delicate work one can churn out, […]
This coming Friday is a significant day in the year for women. It is March 8th and it is International Women’s Day – which by coincidence was established in Copenhagen. Today I had the privilege of having early celebrations with a women’s group in Arklow called Women Of The World which was established in 2009 […]
I have been busy giving crochet workshops in Denmark and busy in my regular crochet classes here in Ireland too. So busy I have not been able to get my web page updated which is a disgrace as I have loads of news to share. However, I will not be able to get to that […]

You […]
It’s that time of year again, time to think about keeping warm and why not combine that with hook and wool to stay warm and get the added benefit of achieving great hooked things at the same time? I’m starting a new round of my regular 4 week classes on Thurday January 10th, with morning […]
I have had the most fantastic year in crochet with very exciting happenings, fun workshops and not least many creative crocheters hatched. Asterix & Obelix, Blue Morph and the Tinahely Sheep Flock © Irene Lundgaard 2012 It has been a year of statement crochet and even the year where my crochet hit the big screen, […]
I have had a few nice days off and for some reason, the crochet hooks have been fairly idle too! However, I am preparing workshops for the new year and not least my regular classes which commence on Thursday January 10th again and last night an idea for some fun Granny Squares struck – Granny […]
