Concrete Gems Crochet Hi, I’m Gemma! I create beautifully textured, easy crochet patterns inspired by nature. Alongside designing, I also offer crochet technical editing. Still unsure?

I also support crochet designers with expert tech editing services to help bring their patterns to life with clarity and confidence. I’ve always loved crochet – there’s something magical about turning yarn into texture, colour, and shape. For me, it’s one of the most relaxing and fulfilling activities imaginable. Over the years, I’ve been inspired by nature, from the delicate pattern of leaves to the intricate textures of forest floors, and I love bringing those ideas into my crochet designs. My focus is on creating nature-inspired, textured crochet patterns that are both beautiful and enjoyable to make. My journey into this started thanks to my mother-in-law, who introduced me to the idea of reviewing patterns for mathematical accuracy and clarity. As an English graduate (and part-time accountant!), this instantly clicked with me. Technical editing ensures that every pattern you publish or use works perfectly. No more stitch counts that don’t add up, missing definitions, confusing abbreviations, or grammatical quirks that interrupt your flow. That’s where I step in. Send me a message – we can chat! Pricing depends on pattern complexity and the level of checking needed (text, charts, schematics, formatting). Small accessories may take an hour, while complex garments with multiple sizes can take up to 8 hours. I charge £25/hour, billed in 15-minute increments. Whether you’re here for textured, nature-inspired crochet patterns or professional technical editing, I’m excited to help you bring your crochet ideas to life.

Most of my crochet designs begin with something I've seen in nature. 🍂

For the Cobnut Beanie (my newest crochet pattern), I was drawn to the lovely texture of cobnuts - these are hazelnuts that have been cultivated and we see them in the UK at the start of autumn. I was also inspired as ever by the stunning colours of the season. I wanted to bring a little of both into this crochet design.

The Cobnut Beanie is a little celebration of autumn.

Have you ever found inspiration for a crochet project in nature? 🌰
