I live in an area with hot and humid summer days. Sometimes crocheting in the middle of summer isn’t always appealing. Blankets or sweaters might feel too big or heavy to work on in 35C heat…so what can you make during those hot and humid months? Here are some ideas!
These cute crochet face scrubbies are made with worsted weight cotton yarn and work up super fast. With a simple stitch and fun edging, this stash buster project is sure to make a great addition to your market prep tables or as a sweet gift for someone special.
The early days of spring can be tricky. Still chilly but not quite cold enough for a thick and cozy scarf. I’ve put together a collection of crochet scarves that would be perfect for milder days that are still a bit cool and breezy. These designs were contributed by fellow designers in the crochet community and are all made using DK or sock weight yarn so they’re light, airy and perfect for spring. Oh….did I mention they’re also free?
I’m happy to share the V-Stitch Bracelet with you today! This pattern was originally published as a paid only bundle in June 2021. I have recently updated the designs and will be releasing them individually in my Etsy and Ravelry shops and offering them for free here on my website.
This design is a fun project to make for festivals, concerts, market tables and as gifts! Make one (or a few) in your favourite colours or to match a special outfit. Find the free pattern below…
This cute, crochet caticorn pattern is a really fun way to add some whimsical vibes to your projects. The applique is great for stash busting and is a simple way to accent items like blankets, tote bags and hats (just to name a few!). You can make this cutie using worsted weight cotton or acrylic yarn. Extra features can be added if you’d like, such as embroidered eyes or eyelashes for an extra magical touch.
Check out this super cute and speedy neck warmer! Made with bulky weight yarn, this project is cozy, full of texture and SO easy! I used less than one skein of Lion Brand Hue + Me yarn which is amazing because you know I love a one skein project. Looking for the free pattern? Find all the details below…
This fun blanket pattern is geared to beginner crocheters looking to try larger designs. It’s a great introduction to working with colour changes and uses only basic stitches throughout. Because it’s a lap blanket, it’s not a huge project but still creates a cozy finished piece. If you’re an advanced crocheter, this blanket is a nice option for when you need a relaxing and simple project to work on.
If you’re looking for a stylish and practical pattern, this crochet tote bag is for you! Made with worsted weight cotton yarn, this design works up by crocheting two panels and seaming them together. Add store bought handles or if you prefer, instructions for a simple crochet strap are included. Want to make your own? Find the free pattern for the Breezy Bobble Tote Bag below…

The even moss stitch is great if you’re looking for some fun texture in a project. Using only slip stitches and half double crochet, it’s wonderful to use in so many different patterns. Today I’m sharing a really simple bookmark design that uses this stitch throughout. If the even moss stitch is new to you, don’t worry! There’s a tutorial included!
