Self Care Stitches
Some days, self care means slowing down with yarn, a hot cup of tea, and a good series playing in the background. Today it’s Virgin River, my waffle stitch project, and my favourite “Create Happiness” hook pot keeping me company.
Welcome to Fleur and Twine
Hi, I'm Ellie!
Welcome to Fleur & Twine a small, cozy place where crochet meets gentle self care. I started stitching because it helped me slow down, breathe, and create something warm for the people I love. Here you’ll find short, real posts about projects I’m making, tiny self care rituals that actually fit into busy days, and the honest ups and downs of building a handmade business.
My style is simple, modern, and soft neutrals and pastels, like a warm cup of tea. If you love cozy projects, quick tutorials, and small rituals to steady your day, you’re in the right place.
Want to keep up? Each week there will be two short posts no fluff, just lovely little threads to brighten your day.
With warmth,
Ellie
A blanket of calm: why I love a simple granny stitch
The granny stitch is one of those comforting rhythms that I always come back to. The simple repeat makes it perfect for evenings when I want to unwind, but still feel like I’m creating something special. The texture is soft and balanced, making it ideal for blankets, scarves, or even cozy shawls.
