Okay okay… confession time: I’ve got a stash of Scheepjes CAL kits at home. Like, more than I’ll ever have time to make 🙈 But they’re just so beautiful, and I was a crocheter long before I ever picked up needles—so I can’t help myself!
And this one? Universe in Bloom? It’s a must.

Designed by the always-amazing Dedri Uys (you know her from Sophie’s Universe!), this 12-week Crochet-A-Long starts October 8 and is FULL of color, texture, and heart. It’s like stitching joy into every row. 💫
We’re bringing in all the kits—including the one I’ll start (but probably never finish): the Seaside colorway in Cotton Create. It’s soft, sustainable, and that palette? Chef’s kiss. Plus! Each kit comes with a bonus tote + stitch markers. Yes please. 🙌

Fun backstory: my longtime buddy Job (on the right in the pic below 👇) is the guy behind Scheepjes. He and I go way back—and last time he visited, he and Doug went mountain biking while I ran alongside like a maniac 😆

We’ve been carrying Scheepjes CAL kits for years now—way before they were easy to find in the U.S.—and it’s been so cool to see the crochet love grow.
So if you’re feeling crafty (or just want something cozy to work on this fall), come stitch this one with us! It’s gonna be beautiful.
xo,
