You’ve arrived at the annual NatCroMo Blog Tour! What is that, you ask? It’s a virtual celebration of National Crochet Month with new blog content daily throughout March, including featured crochet designers, free patterns, discounts, giveaways, and more.

This year our theme is The Crochet Concert and we are celebrating music as creative inspiration. Each featured designer’s showcase will include an “Opening Act” (a quick or easy pattern); “Intermission” (the designer’s favorite crochet tools, yarn, or books); a “Showstopper” (an impressive or unique pattern); and “Designer’s Choice” (any pattern of the designer’s choice).

See all of this year’s tour here: NatCroMo Blog Tour 2021.

Some of the links on this page will earn us a commission if you make a purchase through them. View our disclosure policy for details.

About Michelle Ferguson

Hi! I’m Michelle! I am a wife and mom and crochet pattern designer! I started Two Brothers Blankets in 2013 making and selling finished crocheted items. In 2014, I started designing and by 2015, I was designing crochet patterns full time! At Two Brothers Blankets you’ll find modern and simple crochet garments and accessories for your handmade wardrobe! I love to crochet and design sweaters, tees, and accessories like hats and scarves!

Michelle’s Creative Inspiration

Is music a source of inspiration for your crochet creativity? Or do you listen to music while you crochet? If so, tell us about it. If not, what is something else that helps fuel your creative inspiration?

I wouldn’t say my designing process is inspired by music, but I do enjoy listening to it when I crochet. Especially when I’m crocheting in the car (passenger of course!) and enjoying the ride with the music and my project! What usually fuels my inspiration is yarn or certain characteristics of every day clothing. I will usually be inspired to make something out of a certain yarn or be inspired to create something I personally would want to wear!
