Pattern: The Cross Stripe Poncho

I had so much fun designing the Cross Stripe Poncho and I hope you guys love it! I used Lion Brand Basic Stitch Anti Pilling yarn which is amazing to work with. If you haven’t tried it yet I definitely recommend giving it a go! The pattern repeat on this is super easy. If you want a longer poncho just add an extra repeat on both panels. This pattern is also very beginner friendly. You are making two big rectangles and seaming together. The hood can be easily left off if you aren’t a fan. I also love that you can pick your own color palette for the stripes to add your own unique flair! Let me know what you guys think! 🙂

If you want a PDF printable version of the pattern you can find it in my Ravelry Shop and Etsy Shop!

Description: Whether you are at the beach or sitting around the campfire this poncho is the perfect piece to keep warm. The stripes give it a fun boho vibe and provides a great way to add your own unique colors. The optional hood is also easy to add!

Materials:

  • Worsted (4) Weight yarn. Lion Brand Basic Stitch. 6 skeins (1,110 yards) ecru (color A), 1 Skein (185 yards) Taupe Heather (Color B), 1 Skein (185 yards) Mustard (Color C), 1 Skein (185 y ards) Frost (Color D). Note- If you are not making the hood only 925 yards in Color A are needed.

Pattern: Plaid Pines Crochet Beanie

My Plaid About You Beanie and My Oso Plaid Beanie are 2 of my most popular patterns! I’ve had a lot of requests for more plaid design options and a pine tree was the top voted.  A deer head came in close second so maybe that will be my next one! Have you guys made either beanie yet? The fit of this beanie is a bit different than my others. I decided to make it fitted instead of slouchy and I love how it turned out. Be sure to tag me in your photos on instagram, I love to see your work!

Pattern: The French Moss Top

Hi everyone! Im SO excited to share with you guys the pattern for my French Moss Top! This is my very first Tunisian crochet pattern I am releasing so i’m a bit nervous. This was also my very first youtube tutorial! When Lion Brand Yarn contacted me to offer yarn support on a pattern, I decided I wanted to do something completely different. I wanted to challenge myself and do something outside of my comfort zone. I think I ended up doing exactly that! I found out through this process that I actually really liked recording my tutorial. It is a lot of work and more time consuming but it was also really fun. Im already starting my second video! It’s far from perfect and I have a lot to learn but thats how we grow right?!

I would love for you all to subscribe to my youtube channel for more videos! 

Follow and tag me on Instagram with all of your makes! I love seeing your work!

Materials:

  • 6.5mm Tunisian Crochet Hook

  • Dk (3) weight yarn. Pattern uses Vanna’s Style by Lion Brand. 485(525,590,630,675) Yards

Pattern: Chunky Crochet Blanket

I’ve been eyeing this super chunky yarn from Hobby Lobby for a loooong time. I really wanted to make a chunky crochet blanket for myself but could never get myself to buy all the yarn required. When I saw it go on sale for only 4.89 I decided to go for it! It took a total of 13 Ivory skeins and 2 grey. I know it can be difficult to force yourself to buy so much yarn at once but I promise it will be worth it! This is definitely the coziest blanket ever and the yarn is a dream to work with. SO soft!

Be sure to follow me on Instagram and tag me in your finished blankets so I can see! 🙂

 

Materials:

Finished Size: 55″x65″

Gauge:

Gauge is not important for this project.

Wooden Watches- The Natural Choice

Spring is on it’s way and there is no better way to celebrate then having a giveaway! When JORD Wood Watches contacted me to partner up with them, I Immediately jumped at the chance. I’ve seen these beautiful natural wood watches before and have already been eyeing them. Of course, that left the task of having to pick from all of the beautiful timepieces, which was NOT easy! I just love that their watches are made from natural wood, which goes perfectly with my yarn and handmade clothing (something I work with and wear almost everyday!)

Pattern: Crochet Fringe Crop Top

I was recently requested to write up a pattern for a kids fringe crop top! Even though it’s only 50 degrees out today it’s hot in other parts of the world right?! 🙂 So the fringe crop top was born! I think it’s definitely a crochet pattern staple to have when you have little ones running around. It’s super cute for photo shoots or to just wear outside during the hot summer days. I included 3 different sizes but it is VERY easy to adjust even further if you need to. To make it wider, add more chains to the starting chain. To make it longer or shorter, add or take away rows.

Be sure to follow and tag me on Instagram (@evelynandpeter) with all your fringe crop top makes!

Materials:

  • Worsted (4) weight cotton yarn. 50-80 yards depending on size made. I used Paintbox cotton yarn.
  • 4.00mm crochet hook
  • Yarn needle

Pattern: Men’s Team Colors Beanie

Every fall my husband asks for a new beanie to wear. This year he requested one with his football teams colors! This pattern is perfect for customizing to your favorite football team colors! Sean likes his beanies slouchy and stretchy. This one is really fast to make, it’s worked in rows to form a rectangle and then sewn together at the end. You can make it as slouchy or as fitted as you want by making your starting Ch longer or shorter. It’s also really easy to customize the colors you want and add as many colors as you would like!

Materials Needed: 

  • Worsted Weight yarn in 3 or 4 colors.
  • 6.00mm crochet hook
  • Yarn Needle

Notes:

This hat is worked in rows and then sewn at the end to form the hat. 

Pattern: Bobbles And Rows Pillow

If you haven’t tried Bernat mix home yarn yet, you need to! I picked up a couple of skeins on one of my many shopping trips to Michael’s. I can’t resist when I see a new yarn! I made my pillow case big enough to fit an old 18×18 pillow. However, if you want it bigger or smaller, it’s really easy to customize by shortening or lengthening the starting chain.

Be sure to follow and tag me on Instagram with your Bobbles and Rows pillows so i can see!

Materials Needed: 

  • 2 Skeins of Bernat Mix Home Yarn. Click the link for a 40% off coupon at Michael’s! Coupon Code 
  • 8.00mm Crochet Hook
  • Yarn Needle
  • Pillow insert or Poly-Fil stuffing
