It’s that time…time for a brand new pullover using Heartland yarn! The Moonblush Pullover crochet pattern is quickly becoming a favorite.
If you like some of my other pullovers like The Foggy Shore or The Maeve...then you will love the Moonblush too! I used my favorite color of Heartland- wolf trap. It looks almost tan in the storefront photos but in real life, it’s a beautiful soft blush color. If you want to get yarn for your pullover then be sure to check out the kit! You can pick any of the beautiful colors that they have. The kit also includes a free copy of the downloadable pattern.
I’ve been so excited to try the “Scarfie Lite” yarn from Lion Brand for months! I knew I had to wait until I had the perfect project idea. What could be better than my annual hat/scarf set! The Boxy Blooms Bonnet Set ended up working perfectly with it.
Bonnets are so “in” this year. Funny enough, I have a bonnet style hat that I released a couple years ago, The Stonebridge Set. I love the look and fit of it so I knew a Boxy Blooms Bonnet was meant to be. And it wouldn’t be complete without a long and cozy scarf, would it?!
I remember working with Landscapes yarn many years ago, so when Lion Brand released Landscapes Renewed, I knew I had to try it! Dare I say I like this one better than normal Landscapes?! I immediately got to work on The Strata Sunrise Throw crochet pattern.
I gravitated towards the orange color right away. It reminds me of southern Utah and all the beautiful rock formations in the deep reds and oranges you see! If you have ever been, you know exactly what I am talking about! I knew I had to get it.
I can’t believe i’m releasing my final crochet pattern of 2024 today! Where did the year go? The Arpeggio Set crochet pattern will be my last pattern release until 2025.
This was such a fun year of crochet for me. I hope you enjoyed some of my patterns and will continue to do so in 2025! Thank you guys so much for all the support you have shown. I am truly grateful for all of you!
The Arpeggio Set crochet pattern uses the same stitches as my Echoes Cardigan. The Echoes Cardigan was a big hit and one of my best patterns of the year. While I was working it up I noticed on some of the rows how the sts would pop with the mandala color changes. I wanted to incorporate that into the beanie and scarf by switching back and fourth in colors every 2 rows. I absolutely love the result!
There’s just something about stripes and fall that go together… at least I think so! 🙂 I knew I wanted to make some sort of striped sweater this season and that’s how we ended up with The Fall Fable Pullover!
I went back and fourth with deciding what kind of neckline to do and i’m so glad I went with a simple V-neck! I also went back and fourth with what colors I wanted to use. I was soooo close to using a forest green and cream color but I absolutely love how the nutmeg and cream turned out! Luckily there are so many color options with the kit! I can’t wait to see what colors everyone uses.
There is just something special about Mandala Ombre yarn. The beautiful color combos definitely call to me. I’ve been eyeing a couple of the colors this year and knew I needed to create a blanket with one of them. The Sunrise Surf Throw crochet pattern is exactly what I wanted!
I wanted something with a simple stitch repeat but also wanted amazing texture. Nothing too crazy because the yarn already elevates the blanket and does all the talking! Working up these rows using double post stitches ended up perfect! They are super easy and fun to do as well. It gives it just the right amount of texture without being too overwhelming.
I had just the right amount of yarn left to add on a little bit of a fancy side border as well. I played around with different waves to add to the edge until I settled on a nice repeat for the length. I also wanted to add in an extra something by creating “triple picots” to the top of each wave. Super simple to do and makes it even better! The Sunrise Surf Throw lion brand kit comes with all the yarn you need and a free copy of the printable digital download PDF. I definitely recommend it if you plan on using the mandala ombre yarn!
Cardigans and pullovers are definitely my favorite thing to design but bags are not far behind! You can never have too many cute bags right? The Sunny Cinch Satchel just might be your next favorite!
I love a good cotton yarn for crochet bags and purses. Pima Cotton has always been one of my favorites so I decided to use it for my bag but wanted to hold the yarn double stranded for extra sturdiness! Let me tell ya, I am obsessed with how it turned out! The yarn is soft and so nice to work with! Plus, this bag works up even faster with the double thickness!

I love when a new yarn is released! I was so excited to try the Lazy Days yarn when I first saw it. I was able to feel it in store and noticed how squishy it was! Something about the name being lazy days and the color Bluebell screamed summer to me so I knew I had to make a summer design. I also wanted you to be able to wear it year round with layering and that’s how The Coastal Belle Crop crochet pattern was born!
Because the yarn is so squishy with amazing bounce I wanted to use an open lace style stitch for my design. I ended up using V-sts but decided to use Tr sts in them instead of the typical single or double crochet. Every other row I popped a picot St in the V Sts instead of a Ch 1. I think it adds such a cute little extra detail!
The Coastal Belle Crop crochet pattern is worked from side to side. If you want to have a longer top be sure to check my notes and adjust your starting row. If you want your top wider or more fitting you can add less rows to the main panels! The sleeves are worked top down so they are easy to adjust as well. If you need them longer or shorter just add or remove rows in multiples of 2. This is a drop shoulder style top so the bigger the size you are making the shorter the sleeves will be because the seam hits lower on the bicep.
I had so much designing The Cade Crossbody. Why? Because it’s part of a collab with my yarn bestie Meghan from Meghanmakesdo! I made the crochet version and she made the knit version! It’s always nice to have options so maybe if you are seeing this but you are a knitter, than be sure to check out her blog!
The Cade Crossbody crochet pattern is actually pretty simple. It’s 2 rectangles sewn together and a long strap added last! You’ll add the strap on with a unique twist to give it the slanted fold over look. To give your bag some shape, you will be tacking/sewing the corners up into a triangle point when you add the strap. Once side is sewn further up than the other. That’s it!
When Meghan showed me the knit stitch she was going to use for her bag, I knew I would have to do some swatching and figure out how to get my crochet version looking similar! I tried a bunch of different stitch combinations. Finally I settled with a combo of Sc, Sl St and surface stitches to give the look you see here! There will be some ends on your rectangle panels. But don’t worry!! Most of them you will crochet right over, so don’t let the ends scare you! Just check out the notes section or watch the video tutorial!
I was sooooo excited to see that shrug and bolero style sweaters were starting to become popular again! They are one of my favorite styles so I knew I had to design one, which is exactly what I did! I’m so excited to share The Tilda Shrug crochet pattern with you all!
I stepped out of my comfort zone a bit with this one in terms of shaping. You’ll find some short rows around the opening of the shrug as well as increase shaping within the rows of the sleeves! The Tilda Shrug is worked in 2 separate mirrored panels. You will then do a small seam up the back as well as under the arms.
I used wool ease recycled yarn for this project and loved it! This was my first time using it and it worked up so well. The Tilda Shrug crochet pattern is a kit so if you need yarn I recommend checking it out! If you are intimidated with making the Tilda Shrug crochet pattern be sure to check out the video tutorial!
