Stepping out of my color comfort zone with The Electric Sun Tee Crochet Pattern! This oversized top was so fun to make! I used 3 different colors for mine and switched them out with each row. The stitches create a really cool wave effect!
This top is written with plenty of positive ease for a very oversized look! Because of the oversized fit, each of the 3 sized can fit a wide range of body shapes and sizes! You can also make your top longer if you want by adding as many row repeats as you want before you start the shaping of the neckline. Be sure to add the same amount on both panels!
Make sure you do not cut your yarn when you change colors. If you do, you will have a ton of ends to weave in! I kept my yarn attached with each color change. Then, when I come back to that color I simply picked it back up and switched colors. This leaves small floats along the outer edge of your panel. When we sew the front and back panel together, we will sew over the floats and they will be hidden within the seam on the inside of the shirt! And TaDa! You just save yourself a ton of work!
The first few rows might be a little tricky to remember the stitch repeat. If you need some extra help, be sure to check out my video tutorial! If you have a question, it is most likely covered in the video!

I love the soft romantic vibes that The Wendy Cardigan gives. Somebody suggested the name Wendy for it on my name contest because it reminded them of Peter Pan and I totally see it. 🙂 It’s light weight and made of soft cotton which makes it perfect for warm weather. I’m excited to pair mine over sundresses this summer!
The Wendy Cardigan is worked from the bottom up in 3 separate panels. You can easily adjust the length of your cardigan by adding or taking away rows before you begin to decrease on the front panels. Make sure you adjust the same amount of rows on the back panel as well. I think this cardigan would look SO cute cropped. If you make a cropped version I would love to see it!
The stitch used in this cardigan is very similar to the classic V stitch but it does not have the Ch 1 in between the 2 Dc stitches. This is a great pattern to make and not have to use much brain power on the stitches! It’s just Dc stitches across the row, working them in between the 2 Dc from the previous row!

Every few months I get the urge to make a C2C crochet blanket and it never disappoints. The Daisy Day Throw was perfect to make on these cloudy spring days, to bring some happiness. I don’t know if you guys have noticed but the 90s are making a big comeback in design and fashion! I think that the Daisy Day Throw fits in perfectly with 90s vibes. It reminds me of my childhood and I love it!
The Daisy Day Throw is a Corner 2 Corner (C2C) blanket which means it’s made from the bottom right corner, diagonally to the top left corner. If you’ve never made a C2C then I recommend checking out my video tutorial as you create the blanket. You could even work up a practice swatch before diving into the project.
I also recommend making separate balls of yarn to help prevent cutting and joining your yarn with each color change. For example, when you get to the petal sections you will want a separate ball/skein of yarn for each petal and a separate ball for the blue sections in between. That way you don’t have to cut and join the yarn each time. Now, at some points there will be NO avoiding the cutting of the yarn. You will have to do it and you will have ends to weave in. I found with this blanket that it wasn’t too overwhelming and I got them all weaved in within an hour or so. If you need some visuals on how to keep your yarn organized there are lots of tutorials available out there!

Looking for an easy tote bag pattern? Then The Lucy Tote crochet pattern is perfect for you! This tote bag is worked from the bottom up, in the round. It comes together quickly since you will be using bulky weight tape yarn!
If you haven’t used Lionbrand Rewind yarn yet, then you are in for a treat! It’s sooo soft and creates a sturdy fabric when worked up! There is no snagging because of the flat tape style and it’s super easy to frog if needed! I used under 2 skeins in the Elm color and 1 in Willow! They have several different really pretty color options though if you want to check it out!
I also wanted to point out that the straps can totally be made longer if you want! I put a little note within the pattern on where and how to do this. When designing the bag I was going back and forth with the strap length. When I asked TikTok what I should to the majority of people said to keep the straps the length I had them! But I wanted to make sure those who prefer longer straps would have that option as well!
Didn’t I tell you guys that there would be a matching pullover to the beloved Stony Shore Cardigan?! Well here it is… The Stony Shore Pullover! Haha, I had to keep the name the same obviously since they are sister designs. If you enjoyed the Cardigan design then you will definitely love the pullover!
The Stony Shore Pullover crochet pattern is constructed very similar to the cardigan. It’s actually a bit quicker to do because you don’t have to worry about pockets and the trim is a lot smaller! This is an oversized pullover! You do NOT need to size up to get this slouchy look like mine! I am wearing a size small in the photos. Be sure to check the size chart below and pick yours size via your bust size. If you want a less slouch fit, size down.
I used Lionbrand Jeans for the pullover instead of Heartland like I did in the cardigan. However, either one works great for this! So if you prefer Heartland you can still swap it out. Although, I’m in love with Jeans yarn and highly recommend it!
Description: The Stony Shore Pullover is the sister design to the Stony Shore Cardigan! It has a cozy oversized fit with cute balloon style sleeves. The stitch gives a beautiful and fun texture. Beginner friendly and fun to make!
Have you seen the beautiful Scarfie yarn colors that Lion Brand has? When I saw the Seafoam/Clay color I totally fell in love. I got some and decided to use it for a future project. That future project turned into the Coastal Shores Wrap! I actually worked on this design while I was visiting family at the beach. I played around with a few different stitch ideas but ultimately settled on a beautiful ripple stitch because it reminded me of the sunrise/sunset on the coast!
The way that the colors changed so perfectly in this project made me so happy. It really did give me warm, beachy sunset vibes. There is a ton of different color options in this yarn that I think would look so great!!
Once you get the stitch repeat down the Coastal Shores Wrap is a really relaxing project. It worked up so quickly for me and was really fun to do. If you need any extra help be sure to check out my video tutorial!
The Stony Shore Cardigan Crochet Pattern is here! I’ve been wanting to make something with this stitch for a long time and I’m glad I finally did it! I also knew immediately I would be doing a loose balloon style sleeve. I actually attempted it on my Sunset Bomber but it just didn’t go with the style. I’m sooooo happy that it worked out that way because they look AMAZING on this cardigan.
I’ve been posting sneak peeks of this sweater on TikTok and Instagram. The amount of crocheters that told me they couldn’t wait for this pattern was kind of insane. I can’t even begin to tell you all how much I appreciate the love and support on this design. It’s also a bit nerve wracking because I hope it lives up to the hype. I just want you all to love it as much as I do. Even my husband said this was his favorite sweater of mine and he is my toughest critic when it comes to crochet!! lol.
The Stony Shore Cardigan Crochet Pattern is worked in separate panels from the bottom up and is beginner friendly. Once you get the bead stitch nailed down it’s a breeze to make. You will alternate bead stitch rows and double crochet rows throughout. You can easily make your sweater longer or shorter by adding/taking away rows in multiples of 2 before tying off. Same with the sleeves!

When I went shopping at JOANN for yarn for my new beanie design I didn’t really have a specific color in mind. I did know that I wanted to do something with an ombre look to it. So I knew I would be on a mission for a few different colors from light to dark. When I tell you these 4 colors just called to me from the shelf…they were perfect.
Now, I know..I know.. technically the yarn colors are “rose”. But when I was naming my design I couldn’t stop thinking of cranberry frost. I thought it went so well, especially with how frosty and cold out it is.
This pattern is really fun to make. I use the alternate spike St throughout. It gives it almost a waistcoat stitch look in my opinion! You need to make sure that you join and turn after every round of the main portion of the beanie. Don’t forget!
I can only imagine the different color combos that can be used for this beanie! So many options! I think one with white, light grey, charcoal and then black would be so cute! If you need a little bit of extra help, I got you covered! I have a full video tutorial of The Cranberry Frost Beanie on my YouTube channel!
It’s the perfect time to pick some yarn during the Yarnormous sale with JOANN! Be sure to check it out!
My last pattern of the year is here! The Sunset Bomber is a fun make using bulky yarn with a beautiful outcome! I love when a pattern works up quickly and this one does just that! I wanted more of a jacket look for this design and am super happy how it turned out!
The Sunset Bomber is worked in separate panels from the bottom up. Now, you will be using 2 different sized hooks for this pattern so make sure you switch when you are supposed to! The smaller hook is used in the ribbing and the larger hook is used in the main body of all the panels.
The stitch repeat in this pattern is very simple. Just single crochet, Ch 1, Sk 1! Your single crochets will be worked in the single crochet from the row below and you will always ch 1 and Sk 1 over the Ch from the row below!

I had to do it. I just couldn’t help myself. After making The Luna Cardigan using Lion Brand Go For Fleece Sherpa I KNEW I had to make a blanket. The Forever Winter Throw is here and definitely my coziest blanket pattern! Not only is it the coziest but it’s also the easiest.
Even a beginner can do this project! The entire blanket is worked up in single crochet stitches. You can easily feel your stitches as you go and I even made a video tutorial to help you out!
If you want your Forever Winter Throw to be bigger just add more chains to the starting chain and add more rows until you are happy with the size! I only used 7 skeins for mine.
