The Foggy Shores Pullover Crochet Pattern

You know I wasn’t going to leave you hanging! The Foggy Shores Pullover crochet pattern is here! One of my biggest requests I get when I make a popular cardigan design is to make a pullover version or vice versa. So when I released The Foggy Shores Cardigan a couple weeks ago I already had the pullover ready and waiting!

I did use a different yarn for the pullover version, Lion Brands Basic Stitch Anti-Microbial! It has some really cute colors and was very easy to work with! This is an Anti-Allergen yarn which I thought was pretty cool. It has long-lasting freshness for your projects while preventing odor, bacteria and allergens. You can grab this yarn as part of the kit with Lion Brand! The kit comes with all the yarn you need to make your Foggy Shores Pullover plus a FREE copy of the printable PDF pattern! You can also swap out your yarn colors.

The Foggy Shores Pullover crochet pattern is worked in separate panels from the bottom up. You can easily adjust the length of your pullover by adding or removing rows to the front and back panel. If you made the cardigan than you should already have the easy row repeat memorized! You’ll be using a mix of lemon peel stitch and hdc stitches!

The Winter Moonlight Set

I have to crochet a beanie and mitt/scarf set at least once a year. Making these cute little sets is definitely one of my favorite things to crochet! This year I decided to go with something solid and neutral colored. The Winter Moonlight Set has to be my new fave so far!

I new exactly what stitch I wanted to use for this set from the get go. I’ve only ever worked this stitch in rows so it was fun to design with it in the round and a bit of a challenge to figure out how I wanted to decrease it since technically there is no easy way to do that with this stitch repeat. I think it worked out beautifully though and I’m happy with the result. Both the mittens and the beanie are worked from the bottom up. You will begin with the ribbing before moving onto the main body of the pattern. Once you get past the ribbing you will be working the rounds in turned rounds. SO join with a Sl St, Ch 1 and don’t forget to TURN! Very important to the integrity of the stitch!

I used Lion Brand Color Theory yarn. If you haven’t tried it yet, you should! Lots of pretty colors and the texture is nice and soft. I used the color Moonbeam for mine but there are a bunch to chose from! You can check them out here. The Winter Moonlight Set is available as a kit with Lion Brand as well. You get all the yarn you need plus a free copy of the PDF digital download. Be sure to grab one for the best deal!

Pattern: Side Saddle Slouchy Beanie

I recently saw a picture of the side saddle stitch and wanted to try it! It’s a really gorgeous stitch and once you have it memorized its pretty straightforward. I decided to make a beanie out of it and will be adding it to my craft market stash! Here is a good video tutorial if you need a visual. The only difference is we are turning our work and working in the round instead of going back and fourth in rows.

Materials:

Worsted Weight Yarn, I used Loops & threads urban yarn in oatmeal.

5mm Crochet Hook

Yarn Needle

Pattern:Chunky round crochet pillow

I recently made this super cute crochet pillow for my couch! It works up really fast and was a quick, fun project. I found the pattern from Jo-Anns!

I used two strands of Bernat Blanket Yarn in Vintage White.

 

See how soft and squishy…img_0181

Love the vintage white color against the grey couch.

They also have two more pillow patterns to go along with this one! Im thinking I’ll have to make them both for a matching set.

I ordered this pillow insert in size 18″ round and it fit perfectly.

If you decide to make one of the pillows be sure to tag me on Instagram so I can see!

Boho Crochet Wall Hanging

Im finally back! I’ve been super busy the past few months taking care of my toddler and newborn baby girl who was born in May! My new blog kind of took the backseat for a little while. I have been crocheting as much as I can though and have a bunch of free patterns to post soon! Here’s something I recently finished and will be for sale at my upcoming craft fair next month.

I bought Molla Mills new book, Crochetterie: Cool contemporary crochet for the creatively-minded and love it! There is a bunch of fun patterns in this book and if you like tapestry crochet I definitely recommend it. I used one of her rug patterns, tweaked it a little bit and instead made it into a boho wall hanging. Then, I attached it to a piece of driftwood and added some little tassels to the bottom.

I have another wall hanging and a bunch of other things that I recently made and will be posting the patterns for them soon so check back and subscribe!
