Daisy Daydream Cardigan Crochet Pattern

The Daisy Daydream Cardigan has got to be the coziest sweater I have ever made! All it took was one time holding this yarn and I knew I had to make a sweater with it. Find the full Daisy Daydream Cardigan crochet pattern below!

If you have been following my blog for awhile then you know I have The Daisy Day Throw, The Daisy Day Tote and The Daisy Day Cardigan. They are some of my favorite pieces! I wasn’t quite sure what to name this one at first. I knew I already had a Daisy Day Cardigan, not realizing I would be making another cardigan in the future, so I had to come up with something different! The Yarn I used is “feels like a dream” so it only made since to try and sneak the word dream in somewhere. Daisy Daydream was just too perfect for it!

The Boxy Blooms Blanket Crochet Pattern

Another addition to the Boxy Blooms collection is here- The Boxy Blooms Blanket! I knew as soon as I worked that last stitch of my Boxy Blooms Cardigan that I would be adding more designs to this collection. The pullover quickly followed and now the blanket is out in the world!

It features the same beautiful stitches throughout. I did however, do something just different compared to the cardigan and pullover. I decided to use 2 different color yarns and switch them out every 2 rows! It turned into a colorful and stunning blanket with NO ends to weave in from the color changes! You simply leave the yarn and pick it up every 2 rows, creating little floats as you go. When you work your border, you just crochet directly over them.

The Glacier Mist Cardigan Crochet Pattern

I fell in love with the colors in this Mandala String yarn. I’ve used it in the past for a blanket called The Fairy Floss Throw. I always imagined how pretty it would be worked up into a cardigan so I had to give it a shot! The Glacier Mist Cardigan crochet pattern is the result!

There is a first for everything and i’m pretty sure this was my first time using a super fine (1) weight yarn for a long sleeve cardigan. It actually worked up much quicker than anticipated due to the mesh stitches. So try not to let the super fine weight intimidate you! If you need to grab the yarn before you start, be sure to check out the Lion Brand kit for the best deal!

The Boxy Blooms Pullover Crochet Pattern

The Boxy Blooms Cardigan quickly became a summer favorite and before I even released it I knew I would be making a pullover version. The Boxy Blooms Pullover is here to join it’s sister design!

It’s been on my list to make a collared shirt and I knew The Boxy Blooms Pullover would be perfect for it. It’s the same beautiful stitch repeat throughout. The neckline has a small V opening combined with the cute little collar. It’s hard to decide which one I like better, the cardigan or the pullover!

The Strata Sunrise Throw Crochet Pattern

I remember working with Landscapes yarn many years ago, so when Lion Brand released Landscapes Renewed, I knew I had to try it! Dare I say I like this one better than normal Landscapes?! I immediately got to work on The Strata Sunrise Throw crochet pattern.

I gravitated towards the orange color right away. It reminds me of southern Utah and all the beautiful rock formations in the deep reds and oranges you see! If you have ever been, you know exactly what I am talking about! I knew I had to get it.

The Boxy Blooms Cardigan Crochet Pattern

I can’t even begin to tell you how excited I am to release The Boxy Blooms Cardigan crochet pattern! I was about half way through the back panel when I knew this cardigan was going to be in my top 5! I hope you love it just as much as I do.

The Boxy Blooms Cardigan is made from the bottom up in separate panels. It has a comfy oversized boxy fit with the most gorgeous drape! You’ll be using a combination of stitches to give it a lacy and romantic feel. It has a deep V-neck and 3 button closure. You can easily adjust the length of the cardigan by adding or removing rows in multiples of 4 to the back panel. Then, add or remove the same amount to both front panels just before the neckline shaping. Remember, this will adjust your required yardage.

Tides Out Tote Crochet Pattern

I love a good summer bag. I love 24/7 Cotton yarn. Put them together and you get The Tides Out Tote crochet pattern!

I absolutely have to make a summer bag every year and this year I ended up with The Tides Out Tote! You will be holding 24/7 cotton yarn double stranded throughout to create this beauty. It uses a bunch of double crochet stitches for an easy and fun texture.

The Sleepy Seaside Sweater Crochet Pattern

Several months ago I designed the Starlight View Throw using a super fun yarn carrying technique to give it a very pretty and unique look. I loved working it up so much that I made a top using the same technique! The Sleepy Seaside Sweater crochet pattern turned out just as I imagined!!

I wanted my top to be long sleeve but still have a light and breathable wear to it. I used a double crochet offset V-St to give it a bit of a mesh look. It has a loose and boxy fit with a wide neckline to be worn off the shoulder! It is sooo cozy too! If you want a more fitted neck instead of “off the shoulder” you can add more rounds to your trim for an easy adjustment.

To give the Sleepy Seaside Sweater its mixed yarn look, you will be carrying a secondary yarn throughout. You will only ever be making your stitches with Yarn A and bringing along Yarn B as you go. Be sure to check out my video tutorial if you are new to this technique, I show you exactly how to do it! For my secondary yarn I used a “prints” version of the 24/7 Cotton Dk. This has random colors added throughout the skein so if you use the same yarn, each sweater will have its own unique look! Check out the kit here!

The Towhee Cardigan Crochet Pattern

I love trying out new yarns so of course I was excited to stitch up something with this new Re-Make yarn from Lion Brand! The Towhee Cardigan crochet pattern might just be one of my new faves!  It’s available in a kit (yarn and pattern) with Lion Brand!

The girls helped me name this cardigan, which I think is so fun. It was a beautiful sunny day and finally starting to warm up after lots of bad weather. We went on a family outing to a local trail for the cardigan photoshoot! Along the trail they have signs and photos talking about the local nature and wildlife. The last one we stopped at was for the Towhee bird! The girls were reading the sign when it popped into my head that it would be the perfect name!

This yarn was really nice to work with. It has such a soft texture making it super cozy. Because it’s starting to become spring time I wanted to go with a more open lace stitch for this design. It makes it the perfect cardigan for layering and transitioning into warm weather!

The Echoes Pullover Crochet Pattern

The Echoes Cardigan was one of my top patterns of 2024! I knew that I wanted to make a pullover version of it this year and I’m so glad I had time to sneak it in this winter! The Echoes Pullover is the perfect sister design to the cardigan and I hope you all love it as much as I do!

I thought about using a different Mandala color for the Echoes Pullover crochet pattern but there is just something about the “warlock” color that draws me in! I ended up going with the same color and I’m glad I did! There are however, a lot of beautiful colors to choose from! If you are purchasing the kit you can swap out your color choice and you get a free copy of the printable PDF download of the pattern.
