I’ve had my eye on this cardigan from For the Frills for a little while. I loved the look of the stitch texture, although I assumed it was standard waffle stitch (more on that later) so I thought it would be pretty heavy and would take a while to stitch up… I took a look at my Ravelry favorites page factoring in the yardage I had, and I was excited to see this sweater pattern should work with what I had!

Rowyn Tote Bag – Crochet Pattern Review
So I set a plan in my head to make a nice tote bag for the two of us specifically to use for the library. That way I can put our books in there when we’re done reading them and they’ll (hopefully) be easier to find when we’re ready to go back for the next round. I’ve had it for a couple of weeks and it’s been helpful so far! This is the pattern I chose because it was the perfect combination of practical and adorable, my favorite sort of thing.
Beaded Fidget Christmas Trees – Crochet Pattern Review
The Beaded Fidget Christmas Tree pattern is a well-written pattern that is easy to follow. The process for adding the beads is simpler than I would have expected and is easy to catch on to while working through the pattern. The finished Christmas trees are adorable and are perfect for gifts, market prep, or for your own fun! If you are looking for a fun, unique pattern to try out for this holiday season, I would definitely recommend you try out this one!
English Crochet Ear Warmer – Crochet Pattern Review
What else does winter call for? Cold weather accessories: hats, gloves, scarves, etc. My daughter doesn’t particularly enjoy having to wear a hat when it is chilly outside but that doesn’t stop her from complaining about the temperature. Ear warmers are the perfect compromise. She keeps her ears warm without having to wear a full hat.
PNW Bun Beanie – Crochet Pattern Review
I do not wear a lot of hats or beanies because I like to wear my hair up most of the time. That’s obviously not very conducive to hat-wearing. That is why this bun beanie is the ultimate combo of hat and messy bun.
Summit Hooded Scarf – Crochet Pattern Review
This pattern was very easy, and I love the look of the stitchwork. This scarf is so pretty that I think I am going to make myself one too! Even my son asked for one. This would make a great gift for anyone who likes to be bundled up in the winter!
Isabel Beanie Hat – Crochet Pattern Review
It’s beanie weather! Frigid temperatures are hitting everywhere this winter and cozy caps are more essential than ever! I chose this textured beauty of a beanie for a Christmas present and it did not disappoint. It looks intricate and has a lovely detail to it but it is so effortless to make! It works up quickly and easily while maintaining the look of an elaborate design.
One-Row Ruana – Crochet Pattern Review
This ruana is sincerely impressive in size and also fashion. I love it! I recommend the crochet pattern to anyone who feels confident with post stitches. You’ll get lots of warm, cozy days out with this ruana.
Sun Ray Beret – Crochet Pattern Review
My overall feelings on this pattern are so very positive. It was simple to understand, fun to make, and so lovely to wear! The shape is gorgeous and the stitches add a fun visual pop. Plus I got to try a new stitch and get plenty of practice on it to get better! I would recommend this pattern for sure if you’re comfortable with puff stitches and/or post stitches. Go make one of these in every color!
The Sierra Nevada Hood – Crochet Pattern Review
If you live somewhere where the weather gets really cold, I highly recommend you make yourself (and all your friends) a Sierra Nevada Hood! The pattern works up really quickly by using the super bulky faux fur yarn, and it is the softest, warmest piece I’ve ever tried!
