This is me. For years I have been trying to first define, then create, my own style. This is it, a combination of flower child, bohemian, gypsy. THAT’s me.

You’re the bomb. Thank you so much. Such talent. I have the talent to copy, adapt, follow directions (usually), but to create? Nope.

It is great to have all your free patterns on one page! You were the first designer to get their own ‘folder’ in my crochet patterns. I found a couple here that I don’t think I have. The next thing on my list is to get one of your books, the one with the green lace on the cover. Keep ‘em coming! Thanks for all you share.

I recently completed the Lion Brand Lion Chenille Crochet Vest, and although you are not named as the designer, the pattern has all the hallmarks of a Doris Chan design. Is it one of yours? I loved making it and get compliments every time I wear it. Thanks!

Love your stuff I am always looking for wearable lace patterns and you always deliver. An extra plus is I don’t like to have to do the extra work to sew everything together after I’m all ready done. Thanks.

  Hey Gwen,
  
  Thanks for your kind words. I’ve never posted anything on You Tube, so I have no idea what this is about.

I m sorry Ms. Chan the site Doris Chan, Valley Cowl Pattern #414 tutorial part 1 and 2 designer by Kirsten Hipsky she said it is your pattern.

  Gwen, Yes, the pattern is my design. I wrote the instructions but I have no control over the You Tube tutorial material.
  The pattern for Valley Cowl is not free. It is owned by WEBS and is available for purchase at WEBS. If you have specific pattern questions you are welcome to visit Ravelry.com and post on the forum dedicated to my designs, Doris Chan: Everyday Crochet. Sorry but I can’t help you with the tutorial from WEBS.
  
  Yours,

  Hey Susan,
  
  I have no idea what cord you mean. If it’s the same as the banner image on my blog homepage, then that’s the Foundation Single Crochet. Instructions for this technique are in virtually every pattern I write. Also, find a tutorial on this blog page, Foundation Single Crochet .
  
  Yours,

Doris, I think your work is great – altho I must admit your style of writing directions is often confusing to me. That said, I think you are the only one who seems to be able and willing to adapt crochet to fashion forward garments. While many others purport to do this, I find most patterns kind of frumpy. I bought a crochet top. Crochet tops are all the rage for the last two years in every department store and boutique. This appears to me to mainly utilize hairpin lace. The top is made in two pieces (front and back) and incorporates Dolman sleeves. The stitches that attach to the lace stitches are more or less a mesh with a band of medalion type pattern trimming the yoke. If you respond, please tell me where I can send photos of this garment to you. If this pattern does not suit you, I BEG you to try and duplicate something easy that you have seen in ready made garments in stores. Something do-able and simple to do as well as a simple design to wear. I am hoping these pictures or some ready wear garment will inspire you as there is sooooo much out there available to buy and yet very little available to make. If you have made it this far, thank you so much for your attention. Best regards, Wendy

  Hey Wendy,
  
  Although I appreciate your offer, and although this top you describe might be pretty, think again if you think the pattern for it would be any easier to either write or crochet. Constructions such as you describe, probably rectangles, do not always provide the nicest fit on the body. Production crochet often contains seaming in order to create the sizes needed. You might not understand that I specialize in virtually seamless construction. With this in mind, the combining of hairpin with mesh and medallions to make a garment that drapes well for five or six sizes would require complicated patterning. In my experience, there is no simple where forward fashion is concerned. If you really want this top, figure it out for yourself and try to write it.
  
  Yours,
  
  Doris

Lauren Davis-Todd on March 3, 2013 at 10:08 pm said:

I have questions on patterns I purchased in your book Everyday Crochet. I don’t understand what “onc over inc) means, and when it says, “work in pattern”, which pattern? I am on page 91 and have finished the first three rows. It now tells me to go to yoke 5, which has these phrases. It has patter row 1, but that doesn’t seem to work out. I can sc in the first dc, but then where do I go in the established pattern? Hope you can help. I am very excited about all these patterns, and although I am fairly accomplished with crochet, I have not run across these phrases before, and have been trying to figure it out for quite awhile.

  Hey Lauren,
  
  That’s a typo, it should read “inc over inc”, or increase over increase, which indicates you will go ahead and put more increase right away in the same place. This book is written in workbook style, with pattern rows and rounds, Yoke pattern rows and rounds that are shared within the chapter. You need to read the chapter for an overview of the stitch pattern rows and rounds. Work in pattern means continue crocheting in the stitch pattern as established.
  
  I do not give pattern support on the blog, so if this isn’t clearing things up for you, please join our group Doris Chan: Everyday Crochet at Ravelry.com and the posse will be along with help and advice.
  
  Thanks,
  
  Doris

I have completed all the pieces for your Tesoro Shawl (which I love, thank you). I am on round 4 of the 42 hexagons. I cannot figure out whether the following “6 corners, 12 sc, 6 ch-5 sp (1 on each side of hexagon), and 12 ch-1 sp. Fasten off” is supposed to be crocheted onto the hexagon or if it just telling me what I should have. Could you please clarify that for me? Thank you.
Kay

  Hey Kay,
  That text is a stitch count, what you should have. Glad you like the shawl!
