Is there anything better than exploring the woods on a warm summer day? It’s quiet and peaceful, nowhere to be and no responsibilities. You can hear the birds chirping and the creek trickling. That’s what I picture when I wear The Summer Path cardigan at least. 🙂
This cardigan is worked in 3 separate panels. The 2 main panels are worked side to side and the last one is worked bottom up. The one that is worked from the bottom up is the back detail of the cardigan that will be sewn in between the 2 main panels half way up. I’ve made a couple other things are worked side to side. Check them out here and here!
I absolutely love the Triad Stitch that I used in this design! It works up quickly and gives it an open stitch look, perfect for summer! Make sure you pay close attention to where you are sticking your hook for the Triad! I have a video tutorial available for those that need a little extra help. Be sure to check it out!
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!
I love the look of oversized V-neck button up cardigans. There’s just something about them that I find so appealing! They give me such comforting “grandpa” vibes haha. I knew I had to make one but put my own trendy spin on it. The Carl Cardigan is my cropped and a bit more girly version of this!
The Carl Cardigan is worked in separate panels from the bottom up. When you break it down into each piece tackling this sweater is a breeze. I used the same stitch throughout and have very beginner friendly shaping. I used Feels Like Butta which is one of my favorite soft yarns. It’s very smooth to work with and frogs back easily if you make a mistake!
I know some of us prefer to have our cardigans longer instead of cropped. Good news, it is super easy to make this longer! Just add as many rows as you would like to the back panel (in multiples of 2). Then, when you make the front panels, add the same amount of rows before you start decreasing! Remember, you will need extra yarn!
You might recognize the ribbing technique around this cardigan. I did the cuffs from The Pemberly Pullover the same way! You will be working the trim of the cardigan directly off the sides of the front panel. It might look a little intimidating at first, but when it comes down to it, you are just slip stitching to the panels as you go! If you are new to this technique be sure to check out my video tutorial where I show you exactly how to do it.
Did I just make my favorite crochet bag ever?? Yup! The Aspen Loop Bag crochet pattern is here! It’s worked up in one large piece and then seamed up the sides to form the bag! The trim and loop handle are added last.
I used the Feather stitch for The Aspen Loop Bag! I saw this stitch a while back and have been keeping it in the back of my mind for the perfect project. I’m so glad I decided to use it for this bag! Once you get the stitch down this pattern is a breeze. You’ll just be repeating the Feather stitch over and over! I know this stitch is probably a new one for most of you so I even made a full VIDEO tutorial! I’ll walk you through step by step on making your bag!
24/7 Cotton is the perfect yarn for this project. Nice and sturdy but not rough on the hands! There is also so many different color options for it. If you switch out the yarn I still recommend trying to use some sort of sturdy cotton!
I’m back again with another summer design! This time I made a square neck style tank top with Coboo yarn called The Twist Of Summer Tank! This design is definitely beginner friendly and a very easy make. I used the Lemon Peel stitch to work up the main body of this top. I love the beautiful texture this stitch creates, it’s one of my all time favorites! You might recognize it from my Harvest Pullover!
The Twist Of Summer Tank is worked up in 2 panels from the bottom up. You will create the ribbing first and then rotate to work the main body. Each panel is exactly the same. Next we will sew the panels together, add a quick trim and then crochet the straps!
It’s also super customizable. You can easily add some rows to make it a longer length top or remove rows for a more cropped look! Just adjust the length before tying off your panels.
With the warm weather finally here, I’ve been wanting to make all the summer cardigans! I love working with open lace type stitches. Not only do they look super cute but they usually work up really quickly too. The Zahora Cardigan checks off both of these boxes!
I always aim for my designs to be beginner friendly and this one is no different. You will be creating 3 panels and working from the bottom up. Don’t let the picot stitches scare you! It actually goes really quickly. This cardigan is also easily customized. If you want your cardigan longer just be sure to add more rows in multiples of 2 before tying off your panel. Be sure you add the same amount of rows to each panel. If you want a more oversized look, just size up.
I love throwing on my Zahora Cardigan with any summer outfit. I think it looks super cute with jean shorts and a tee but would also be adorable over a summer dress. If I have time I’m totally going to make a longer version to wear over my bikini at the pool this summer!
I’ve been making a lot of striped things lately if you haven’t noticed! When I saw a striped blanket at target with a similar color palette I knew I had to get my hands on some yarn and make something with it! I debated between a cardigan and a blanket for a bit but wasn’t a hard choice to go with a cardi! That’s how The Morning Coffee Cardigan came about!
The Morning Coffee Cardigan is a VERY beginner friendly pattern. It has no shaping and minimal seaming. I decided to add in some optional shaping only at the forearms. This cardigan is designed to have loose cuffs/sleeves. I know that some people prefer to have there sleeves tapered so I added that option just in case!
I also recommend leaving the tails of yarn long enough on the sides of the front/back panel so that you can use these to sew your panels together. This will help cut down on the ends you need to weave in. Another tip is when you are crocheting the trim, that you crochet directly over the ends of yarn. This way you can skip the weaving process.
The Market Mitts crochet pattern is actually an older pattern of mine. I designed these for crocheters who sell lots of crochet items at markets and need to make things in bulk! These things work up sooooo fast let me tell you! You can make a pair of these in adult size in less than half an hour. It also takes less than 1 skein of WET&Q so you can make multiple gloves from one skein!
I’ve been wanting to work on building my YouTube channel for a while now and I’m so excited to announce that I have a tutorial video available for the Market Mitts Crochet Pattern! I hope you will check it out and give it a thumbs up. I plan on adding more tutorials to my channel so you might as well subscribe too! 😉
