Kristel Droog is a well-known Haakster who goes by the name My Krissie Dolls. She’s a star at making the cutest Amigurumi—all using Sock Yarn. In this episode, she talks about how she got started with crocheting, what her trademark style is, and what we can expect from her new book. So exciting!
Estivo polka-dot skirt
Saskia knows all too well how much her daughter loves colorful skirts. So she wasn’t at all surprised when her daughter wanted to put it on right away and didn’t want to take it off. We, too, love this polka-dot skirt made from Lana Grossa Estivo II. The fluffy yarn feels wonderfully soft and creates a lovely fluffy effect.

Crochet Blanket
We’ve now reached the tenth section of the stitch blanket. Every week, Petra and Saskia take on the challenge of creating a similar knitting and crochet stitch. This week, Saskia is crocheting the cross stitch, and Petra has found a beautiful, similar stitch in an ajour pattern.
Material:
The blanket is made with DROPS Muskat cotton yarn. The colors of the squares are DROPS Muskat colors 40, 05, 29, 10, 19, 03, 20, 24, 09, 53, 60, and 02. The squares are joined together using color 18 (white).
Two 20 x 10 cm squares are made from each stitch.
