THE HANDS BEHIND MINIKNOT
Hi, I’m Emily, and welcome to MiniKnot!
MiniKnot is a crochet blog built around one simple idea: crochet should feel friendly, not frustrating. Whether you are holding a hook for the very first time or looking for your next cozy project, you’ll find clear, free patterns and tutorials here that you can follow one stitch at a time.

What you’ll find here
Free crochet patterns
Written patterns for granny squares, amigurumi, wearables and home decor, with clear stitch counts and notes.
Beginner tutorials
Step-by-step guides that start from your very first chain, so you never feel lost.
Stitch guides
Simple explanations of the stitches you need, with tips for getting them neat and even.
Tips and troubleshooting
Practical advice on yarn, hooks, tension and fixing common mistakes.
How every post is made
I want you to be able to trust what you read here. Before anything is published, each pattern or guide goes through the same simple routine:
- Written in plain language, with the materials, stitches and measurements listed up front.
- Checked before publishing, so the stitch counts and instructions add up.
- Kept up to date. If you spot a mistake or have a question, I’ll fix or clarify it.
My promises to you
- Free to read. Every pattern and tutorial on MiniKnot is free.
- Honest about links. If a post ever contains affiliate links, I’ll say so clearly. You can read more on the Affiliate Disclosure page.
- Credit where it’s due. I respect other designers and creators, and I’ll always credit and link to their work.
Let’s crochet together
Got a question, a pattern request, or a finished project you’re proud of? I’d love to hear from you. Happy crocheting!
