The Topaz Tee – Crochet Pattern Review

This is a very simple pattern, in terms of stitching. Once you get the hang of the mesh stitch, it’s smooth and just flies off the hook! The genius of this pattern is in the actual layout. She does a really cool technique in shaping the shoulders, rather than simply decreasing for the neckline and leaving the sides boxy (which is also a look that I love and do in many of my own designs).

Ice Cream Cozy – Crochet Pattern Review

Teri Eggenberger from Good Egg Knits published an Ice Cream Cozy pattern that is not only super fast and easy to make, but it uses both acrylic and cotton yarn to make the absolute perfect ice cream cozy. When I tested the finished product out, not only did it fit perfectly, but the acrylic was soft on my hands while the cotton absorbed all the frost from the container without soaking through.
