If you’ve ever looked at a beautiful crochet or knit image online and wondered whether there’s actually a genuine pattern behind it, I’ve got a fabulous new resource to share with you.
This is the resource I teased you about earlier!
With AI-generated crochet and knit images becoming harder to recognise, it can be especially difficult to know whether the pattern behind a beautiful image is genuine – particularly if you’re a newer crocheter who hasn’t yet discovered the designers and websites you know you can trust.
Even those of us who have been crocheting for years are having to look a little more closely these days!
That’s why I’m so happy to be part of the new Crochet & Knit Designer Directory from Snappy Tots.
The directory was created by Heidi after her daughter, who was new to crochet, found herself being fooled by AI-generated crochet. She asked Heidi if she could make her a list of crochet designers she could follow and trust.
What started as a simple list grew into something much bigger!
The new directory brings real crochet and knit designers together in one searchable place, making it easier to discover the people actually designing, making and testing the patterns you see – and to find the websites and places where we share our work.
And this isn’t a static directory. It will continue to expand as more designers are added, so it’s worth bookmarking and coming back to whenever you’re looking for someone new to follow or a pattern you can feel confident about.
I’m proud to be included in the very first group of designers, alongside lots of other talented makers.
Whether you’re looking for someone you already know or hoping to discover a new designer, I think this is going to be such a useful resource.

And please do share it with any crochet or knitting friends who might find it useful too. The easier we can make it to find real designers and genuine patterns, the better.
