Featured Crochet Instagrammer
This week’s featured crochet Instagrammer is Helene Janse van Rensburg AKA jysoulikmamma_brilliantmommy. She says: “I’m a South African mommy and I’m brilliant with a crochet hook and some yarn! Come view my creations. I just know you never knew you had to have it.” She sells her items on Shoptsie, which you can glimpse via Facebook. Helene’s Instagram feed is all crochet and it’s all colorful, detailed and fun. This week she shared:

Hi Kathryn!
How do you get so many beautiful crochet creations in one round up? Your own mandala’s look wonderful! Helene Janseat is a great choice I think as the featured crocheter this week, she makes lovely things. And thanks so much for letting my white spiders and white squares be part of this review!
Best wishes for the new week ahead!
Thanks so much! I was happy to be able to feature Helene’s work this week. I’m lucky to have so many people tagging their great crochet photos and wanting to be a part of this. It’s inspiring to look at those each week and round them up to share with others! Always appreciate your contributions, too!
