Eleonora from Coastal Crochet

Oh I do like to crochet beside the seaside! My name is Eleonora and I am a crochet designer and crochet blogger. I love to share my passion for crochet with others through my blog and on my Instagram and Facebook pages, providing plenty of inspiration and patterns. I also love to host workshops both locally and further afield. I have had many designs published in crochet magazines including 'Simply Crochet' and 'Inside Crochet'. I live by the sea on the south coast of England...

No filter used here… straight out the camera and you can see the approach of rain! 🌧 We enjoyed a lovely coastal walk… yes we got wet, but it’s still feeling warm! ☀️🌧💦⚡️ Hope you’ve alll had a good weekend… 🥰💙

It’s weekly round-up time! 😄🌴🏝🏝 Thank you to all who have shared beautiful photos this week of their #tropicalshoresblanket which I’ve designed for @kingcoleltd 👏💙 We have plenty of outside crochet going on🌴🌿, some lovely crochet in action progress photos 🧶 and lots of people only just starting out this week, with yarn available from independent stores! 🥰🥰🥰🌴🌴🌴 The first grid is from photos shared here on Instagram, the second grid is from photos shared in the Facebook Group: ‘King Cole Craft Along #CAL’ and the third grid is from photos shared in my Facebook group: ‘Coastal Crochet’! Have a fabulous Sunday… 🥰🌴🌴🌴

We had thunder storms last night with heavy rain! ⚡️🌧⛈ ⚡️ The lightening is spectacular over the sea… but Salty is terrified of thunder and lightening and she kept us awake!! Not the best nights sleep ever… 😏💤 As you can see, she’s fine now… 🥰🐾 The air is fresher… but still warm enough for some alfresco crochet! 🥰🧶 I’m using the ‘Scrumpalicious’ yarn from @cygnet_yarns - it’s not like anything else I’ve crocheted with before… 🧶🧶🧶

This week for the Tropical Shores Blanket crochet-along which I designed for @kingcoleltd we have some coconut inspired squares 🥥🌴as well as shells 🐚 and sparkling seas! 🌊💦 I wanted to photograph my coconut inspired crochet together with an actual coconut so I found myself adding coconuts to my weekly food shopping! 😆🥥🥥🥥 That’s a first for me! I’m pretty pleased with the photos… 😄🥥🥥🥥🌴🌴🌴

A little sea swimming this evening… with the sun setting and the water so clear and calm, it really felt like I could have been somewhere a very long way from home! But this is home… by the Sussex coast! We’re certainly enjoying the weather and calm seas while it lasts… 😍👌🥰🌊🌊🌊🌊☀️☀️☀️🐾 Hope you’re all staying safe and well! 💖

It was a hot one out there today! 😄🌊🥵☀️☀️☀️☀️ Probably too hot for taking yarn down to the beach but I’ve had a yarn delivery from @cygnet_yarns and I couldn’t resist! 😆🐾🐾 😃😍🧶🧶🧶 This is their super chunky ‘Scrumpalicious’ yarn! And it really is soooo incredibly soft! Remember the yarn bomb I designed and sent off to Italy for the @yarnbombingtrivento festival in June? 🇮🇹 Well I was planning on releasing that as a pattern, including changing it into a super chunky blanket. But just as the pattern was ready to go, I discovered the colour of the original yarn I used has been discontinued so I’m trying out the pattern in this yarn instead! I’m pretty sure this will crochet up super fast, so there won’t be too long to wait for those of you who are interested! 🥰🧶🧶💙
