Saltwater Taffy Tee Crochet Pattern

I really can’t get enough of Lion Brand Truboo yarn. After making my Sweetpea Top with it, I knew I had to use it again! Since I had already used it before I knew whatever I was making would be super silky and drape perfectly. The Saltwater Taffy Tee was so fun to make!

I wanted to change things up a bit with the construction of this top so I decided to work the pattern vertically from side to side instead of bottom up! Have you ever made a crochet top this way before? I love the vertical striping of the stitches, I think it’s so slimming and works well on all body types! 

The Saltwater Taffy Tee also uses 3 different colors of yarn. There are so many different color combos you could use that would turn out so cute! If you purchase the kit from Lionbrand.com you can pick any color you want and customize your own top!

The Penny Lane Poncho Kid’s Pattern

I have the cutest “mommy and me” set to share with you guys! I released this pattern last year to my Etsy and Ravelry shops and i’m slowly migrating some of those patterns here, free on my blog! The Penny Lane Poncho is written in both adult and child sizes! I had so much fun taking these photos with Penny last year. The child size pattern can be found below. Click here to check out the adult sizes also free on my blog!

I used Lion Brand Rewind yarn which is a really unique and fun yarn to work with! It has a summery and beach type vibe to me. The yarn is bulky weight so the poncho works up really quickly but still has a lightweight feel to it! 

It’s also beginner friendly! You basically just crochet one giant rectangle and make 2 small seams to sew it together and that’s it!

Description: Loose open stitches combined with the airy Rewind yarn makes for a perfect poncho to toss over your clothes when the sun starts to set. This is a great beginner garment and a cute “mommy and me” set for photos.

Happy At Home Hoodie Pattern

It’s finally here! The Happy At Home Hoodie has been anticipated by so many of you and i’m so excited to release it. Sometimes you just have a design in mind that comes together exactly how you wanted it to and this was one of them! I pictured an oversized hoodie with wide ribbing and a soft lightweight feel. The slits on the side somehow make it even better than I imagined. 

I used Lion Brand Coboo to make this hoodie. It’s one of my all time favorite yarns! You can check out The Bobble Crop Top which I made using Coboo. I also have some other designs coming soon using it!

I hope the Happy At Home Hoodie pattern brings you some much needed crochet therapy while we are all quarantined to our homes. It brought me so much joy to make and I know this will be one of my pieces i’m most proud of for years to come. Please tag me in your wips and finished photos of your hoodie on Instagram so I can share the happiness! Use #happyathomehoodie so I can see!

Happy At Home Hoodie PatternDescription:

This lightweight hoodie is perfect to throw on during a chilly summer evening at the beach or cozied up in around a bonfire. The in-style  oversized fit compliments all body shapes and sizes. Get ready to never take off your new favorite hoodie!

The Sweetpea Crochet Top

Can you tell I’m more than ready for warmer weather?! The Sweetpea Crochet Top was inspired by beautiful sweetpea flowers blooming in spring! I love the wearability of this top. It layers perfectly over a cami or bralette! The stitches give it a beautiful lacy look.

I used Lion Brand Truboo yarn and let me tell ya…the drape on it is something else! It’s very similar to Coboo but it has a beautiful sheen to it! It’s so silky and smooth, I can’t wait to work with it again. I’ve made an adorable summer top using coboo called The Bobble Crop Top, be sure to check it out!

The Sweetpea Crochet Top is created by making 2 panels and seaming together. You will add arm trim and neckline trim at the end. 

The Color Block Cape Crochet Pattern

I wanted to make something that was mindless but still looked amazing! Every once in a while I like to take a break from intense crochet designs that require a lot of math and attention. This Color Block Cape is definitely easy and mindless but still looks great!

This was the perfect pattern to chill out with and work on at the end of a long day. It uses double crochet stitch throughout and has very minimal seaming. I made it oversized enough so that it could be one size fits all! If you want it longer, you can easily add more rows before splitting off the front panels. Just be sure to add the same amount of rows to both front panels as well!

This is my second oversized garment using Lion Brand Basic Stitch. I have a poncho using it as well! You can check out the Cross Stripe Poncho here! 

The Coffeeshop Cardigan

I’m super excited to be bringing you guys the new and improved Coffeeshop Cardigan! This pattern was one of my very first designs and was always a huge hit + top seller. It definitely needed a little face lift and some larger sizes added to it. It’s crazy how much you learn as a designer in just a couple of short years!

I’ve added more sizes to the design so now it goes from XS all the way to 5X! I also updated the construction of this sweater so there is a lot less seaming and sewing pieces together. Now, there is only 2 small sections up the side to seam. YAY! The sleeves have NO seaming!

The Coffeeshop Cardigan was inspired by all things cozy. It’s the perfect housecoat to throw on over leggings and an oversized tee. The homespun yarn gives it the perfect amount of rustic handmade feel. The pattern uses half double crochet throughout for easy stitching.

Pattern: The Skyscape Shrug

Have you ever tried Landscapes yarn by Lion Brand? I remember buying some a few years ago to make a hat but never designed anything on a bigger scale with it. I’m so excited to finally share the Skyscape Shrug with you all! Its very simple. If you can make a rectangle then you can make this sweater! It’s the perfect project to work on while binging your favorite show on Netflix because you repeat the same few rows over and over! It is also super easy to customize. You can make it longer by starting with more foundation single crochet stitches. If you want a shorter wingspan, just take out a row repeat!

Pattern: Cozy Boyfriend Cardigan

There is finally a chill in the air! I woke up this morning and it was cold enough for a cozy sweater while waiting at the bus stop with Evie! I’ve been keeping this pattern a secret for sooooo long. I finally get to share with you guys my “Cozy Boyfriend Cardigan” which is part of Lion Brands, 12 Weeks Of Christmas! I know, I know. Christmas seems so far away but it’s never too early to start making gifts right? Especially when they are handmade and take a bit more time. Yay for slow fashion!

My Cozy Boyfriend Cardigan is available as a kit from Lion Brand at a super awesome discounted price of 40% off! Use code “SAVE40SEPT” at checkout.  Go snag yours now so you can get started! Did you know you get a free printed PDF of my pattern when you buy the kit? Yup.

If you have the yarn but still want a pretty PDF to print out, grab it from my Etsy Shop or Ravelry Shop.

This design was inspired by the chunky oversized sweaters you see at the mall. I wanted it to be something you could throw on with leggings and a tee. The Boucle yarn gives it just the look I was going for! I know the Boucle yarn can sometimes be intimidating but if you take it slow, use stitch markers and count by feeling your stitches you will be fine! 

Materials:

  • Baby Soft Boucle (bulky,5) Skeins needed 9(10,11,11,12,13,13). 1040(1120,1210,1290,1360,1450,1500) yards. I recommend buying the kit here.

Crochet Pattern: The Charlie Tank

I’m super excited to release this pattern and check another wip off of my list! I wanted to make a simple tank top but also didn’t want it to be too boring. You’ll be working through the back loops only throughout the pattern to give it a little flair! I used Lion Brand Merino Silk Cotton for this pattern and really liked it. It’s considered a weight of (1) but I honestly think it passes as more of a Sport/Dk (2 or 3). You should be able to meet gauge with a heavier weight yarn, so be sure to check!

If you make one, tag me on Instagram so I can share your work! 🙂

Materials:


  • Merino Silk Cotton Yarn (1) Superfine. Color- Olive. Yards needed- 450(480,520,570,630,690,770)

  • 3.50mm Crochet Hook

  • yarn needle
