BECCA'S JOURNAL ...from the studio

Crochet accessory designer Becca Parker of To Be Adorned explains how little crochet touches can make your big day even more special

- Becca Parker

Truth be told, I'm a bit of a wedding fiend. I always well up at the vows and often have to be dragged away from the dance floor at the end of the night. What could be lovelier than couples making promises to one another and celebrating with their nearest and dearest? Throw crochet into the mix and you've well and truly stolen my heart. My love affair with all things nuptial began in my teens, when I had a Saturday job at a bridal boutique. It was jolly hard work, often emotional but very rewarding. Back then I could never have predicted I'd still be helping kit couples out years later! Now as a designer-maker I create planet-friendly crochet accessories for weddings, and patterns for those who want to make their own. It's a privilege to play a tiny part in someone's special day.
