About the blog
Crochet inspiration & how-tos
The Haak Maar Raak blog is where new patterns are introduced, stitch techniques are explained, and the occasional yarn obsession gets its moment. I write every post for real crocheters, whether you're still building your stitch repertoire or tackling advanced patterns.
You'll find a mix of free patterns, step-by-step how-to guides, roundups of inspiring projects, and my honest thoughts on yarn, accessories, and books. My goal is always to make crochet feel doable, full of joy, and, of course, a little bit addictive.
Popular topics
