Behind the stitches

Meet Cyndie

A little about the maker, the journey, and why crochet has become such a joyful part of my life.

My crochet journey

Made between work, life, and a whole lot of yarn.

BirdsongCrochet grew from a love of making things by hand and the simple happiness that comes from seeing an idea slowly become something tangible.

I run Cyndie Birdsong Designs as a side hustle alongside my full-time day job, so designing happens in the spaces between everyday life — evenings, weekends, and those wonderfully quiet moments when I can sit down with a hook.

What started as a creative outlet has grown into a library of more than 200 downloadable crochet patterns.

The design philosophy

Nature, whimsy & a touch of magic.

I love patterns that feel interesting to make and beautiful to live with.

01

Nature

Leaves, flowers, birds, stars, forests and organic shapes often find their way into my designs.

02

Whimsy

A pattern should make you smile. I love unexpected details, playful motifs and designs with personality.

03

Magic

Overlay mosaic crochet can look complicated, but clever stitch placement creates that wonderful “how did that happen?” feeling.
