It takes a lot for me to really, really love and be excited over my blanket designs, luckily this one definitely nails it for me. The Hazel Ridge Throw crochet pattern was SO fun to design and to make.
I knew when I ordered the yarn that I wanted to find a combination of colors that went beautifully together. I already had somewhat of a picture in my mind of what I wanted for this design. I knew that I wanted to play with different stitches and repeat them throughout. I just love a design that keeps you interested as you go and isn’t boring! Check out the Lion Brand kit here if you want the same yarn as me!
I love trying out new yarns so of course I was excited to stitch up something with this new Re-Make yarn from Lion Brand! The Towhee Cardigan crochet pattern might just be one of my new faves! It’s available in a kit (yarn and pattern) with Lion Brand!
The girls helped me name this cardigan, which I think is so fun. It was a beautiful sunny day and finally starting to warm up after lots of bad weather. We went on a family outing to a local trail for the cardigan photoshoot! Along the trail they have signs and photos talking about the local nature and wildlife. The last one we stopped at was for the Towhee bird! The girls were reading the sign when it popped into my head that it would be the perfect name!
This yarn was really nice to work with. It has such a soft texture making it super cozy. Because it’s starting to become spring time I wanted to go with a more open lace stitch for this design. It makes it the perfect cardigan for layering and transitioning into warm weather!
