When I got my hands on Lion Brand Merino Camel I knew immediately I wanted to make a matching beanie and fingerless mitt set. The super soft and fine yarn was perfect for the Midnight Dunes Set!
The colors reminded me of a nautical east coast chilly beach feel. I asked my followers on Instagram what they thought a good name would be and someone suggested The Midnight Dunes set! A really fitting name in my opinion!
This set is great for an advanced beginner. Maybe you already have the basics down and want to try out something a bit more challenging then scroll on down! You will be doing some color work and fun stitches.
I even made full VIDEO tutorials for both the beanie and the mitts! So if your still new to crocheting you can follow right along! You can find the beanie video here and the mitt video here!
The Moonstone Throw crochet pattern is heeeeere! This one was so much fun for me to make. I wanted something simple that was easy enough for a beginner but also wasn’t toooo simple that it would be boring.
Each different color uses the same stitch throughout the blanket. And the blanket is actually only 4 big repeats of the same section! If you like to always have a big project to work on in your WIP rotation then you definitely have to start the Moonstone Throw.
Have you used Lion Brand Pound Of Love before? If not, you have got to give it a shot! This yarn is perfect for blankets in my opinion. It comes in a HUGE skein…a whole pound! It’s also super affordable for all of that yarn. Only $11.69 for an entire 1,020 yards. That is craaaaazy! Also, it has so many cute color options!!
The Moonstone Throw crochet pattern is a fun beginner blanket with an easy color and stitch repeat. The stripes are modern and fit with any home decor.
