After listening to episode 16 of Cast-on ini the car, guest hosted by crotcheter Sage Tyrtle, I was all about getting home and finding out more about Sage’s miniature crochet. There’s not a lot out there in webland about Sage. She does have a podcast by the name of Quirky Nomads and is just as engaging here as at Cast-on. If you haven’t listened to episode 16 of Cast-on yet, I highly recommend it. Sage is a beautiful story teller and had me completely entranced and she chose an excellent song by Jim’s Big Ego “Stress”, had me laughing in the car.

So I emailed Sage and she has been kind enough to share these pictures with us. Amazing work.

Seventies afghan - 3″ x 3 7/8″

Brown seventies afghan (mentioned in the Cast-on podcast) - 2 3/4″ x 3 1/4″

Afghan and rug - afghan: 3″ x 4″ and rug: 5.5″ diameter

Multicolored afghan - 2 3/4″ x 3 1/4″

Currently Sage can’t make miniature crochet so she now crochets hats and bags and gives them away. Here’s a current hat. Great detail and colour.
