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!
I love a good crochet raglan sweater! Are you a fan of top down designs? Or do you like working from the bottom up? The Willow Sweater is top down or “raglan” style! I haven’t really made too many crochet patterns from the top down. It was fun being able to try it on as I went!
This sweater has no seams and no sewing. Thats definitely a plus. I have to admit though, I don’t mind sewing pieces together and I think my favorite will always be bottom up sweaters in separate pieces. Each time you finish a panel it’s like checking off a task and it seems to go quicker for me!
I love the look of a cozy cowl on a crochet raglan sweater but you could also easily leave it off. It would save you yarn, time and be less bulky in the warmer months!
Sweaters are definitely my favorite thing to design. Check out these free ones on my blog! The Coffee Shop Cardigan, The Cozy Boyfriend Cardigan, and The Color Block Cape!
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.

Valentine’s Day is on it’s way so I thought I would put together a fun round up of free crochet patterns and tutorials! I don’t normally go all out with V-Day decorations but every single one of these patterns is making me want to pull out my pink yarn and get to hookin’!
To start us off I found this SUPER adorable Fuzzy Love Monster from Spin A Yarn Crochet. I really want to make one of these for each of the girls to give them on Valentine’s Day morning!
You guys. I designed my first knit pattern! I tried to teach myself how to knit years ago but never got the hang of it. I tucked my needles away and decided to try crochet instead which I immediately fell in love with. Well recently I’ve been working on knit projects and I think I’ve finally got it down!
This pattern is verrrrrry beginner friendly. No increasing. No decreasing. No shaping. No seaming. You literally knit the entire thing. You do need to know how to switch yarns and needles but it is easy peasy! I’m so excited to introduce to you guys the Fab Faux Knit Scarf!

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!
Kit and PDF’s-
You can find the kit to make this shrug HERE! It includes all the yarn you need (in 5 different color options) plus the ad-free printed PDF pattern!

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!Â
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.

Is it summer yet?! Nope, it’s not even spring yet. lol. I’m hoping that if I make all of the warm weather things it will force the sunshine to come. Let’s see if it works. 🙂 The Summer Nights Shawl is a super fun and quick make to work up while you’re netflixing. It’s a very easy mesh stitch with a simple repeat row. It’s worked up double stranded with the light and superfine yarn. If you don’t have both yarns available, I recommend using just a basic worsted weight yarn!
Be sure to follow me on Instagram and tag me with your finished shawl! I love to share your work with my followers. 🙂
Materials:
- Light (3) weight cotton yarn. Pattern uses Lion Brand Comfy Cotton in “whipped Cream”. 200 yards.
- Superfine (1) weight yarn. Pattern uses Lion Brand Summer Nights in “blue Lagoon”. 215 yards.
- 5.00mm Crochet Hook
- Optional- If you add tassels or fringe, you will need more yarn then noted above.
When BeCozi sent me some of their super soft and cozy Chenille yarn, I knew I had to make something awesome with it! I know big chunky blankets are popular with this yarn but I wanted to do something a little bit different. I decided to go with a floor cushion for the girls to sit on (or who am I kidding…the dog to sleep on lol) but I didn’t want it to be basic and boring. I love granny squares so I knew I had to incorporate that into my design! I hope you guys enjoy the pattern.
Be sure to pin for later and tag me on Instagram so I can see your work!
Materials:
- Jumbo (7) weight yarn. Pattern uses 250 yards of Be Cozi- Chunky Chenille (8 skeins)
- 25mm Crochet hookÂ
Notes:
- Cushion is made in 2 panels and slip stitched together.
- The front panel is a classic granny square. The back panel is double crochet rows.
- The Ch 3 at the beginning of each round and row counts as 1 Dc.
- The Ch 4 counts as 1 Dc and 1 Ch.
