If you’re thinking some stockings would be adorable to hang up for your family and you just can’t find the right one or you don’t like the ones on the shelves at the big box stores, this pattern is perfect for you! It’s a gorgeously textured stocking that looks so plush and lovely, and can hold a decent amount of small treasures. It’s written in two sizes but both are a good size in my opinion. Just depends on the space you have to decorate or the number of goodies you want to put inside! And although it looks intricate, the actual project is a fairly approachable four-row repeat that’s not too difficult once you get some practice in.

Granny Pop Cardigan – Crochet Pattern Review
I was very satisfied with this pattern. Granny stitch can be nice for garment patterns since you get into a rhythm and you can just keep stitching away! This is written as a top-down sweater where you make a yoke and work until your desired size, which makes it feel like it goes fast too. You then work straight rows for a while to get length, and boom! You have a cardigan.
Athabasca Pullover – Crochet Pattern Review
You can never go wrong with something classic like a raglan pullover. I had this pattern from MJ’s Off the Hook Crochet on my favorites list for a little while, and I was waiting for the right yarn. She used Mandala Ombre, which I do love, but I wanted to mix it up a little bit… and then I found the one! A gorgeous watercolor-inspired (in my opinion) colorway with a simple raglan to let the colors be the star? Perfect!
Colour Block Granny Scarf – Crochet Pattern Review
This is a very simple pattern based on a very popular stitch. And yet it’s still something I hadn’t personally seen before, and I don’t remember ever working a chevron pattern in granny stitches before! It’s always fun even after a decade in this hobby to find something new to try. It’s simple to work up once you get the technique down, and provides a lot of practice if granny stitch is something you need to work on. It can be a carefully coordinated and planned color-block project, or a stash-buster like mine where you find out what your next color is when you get there! And the finished item is warm and snuggly and will keep me cozy for years to come.
