I’ve got another free crochet cardigan pattern for you and it’s probably my favorite! It’s not made from linen yarn but rather it’s made up of “linen” stitches. Beginners, don’t let the fancy stitch name scare you off, the linen stitch (also known as the moss stitch) is just single crochet (sc) and chains! The ..read more

With a defined texture and simple construction, this classic ribbed beanie is beginner friendly and a great cold weather staple. It consists of just half double crochet (hdc) stitches, but instead of being worked in the top two loops (normal) it’s worked in the third loop (see the tutorial below) to give this beautifully bumpy ..read more

Is it a bonnet…a beanie? Well, both! It’s a beanie with a brim that doesn’t go all the way around the head so that it fits like a bonnet. About five years ago I actually designed this pattern for my daughter and offered it in 3 baby/child sizes. I have loved seeing so many people ..read more

I loved the stitch from my Basic SC Beanie pattern so much, I decided to use it to make a new cardigan pattern! I call it the Button Up Cardigan Sweater, because although you can wear it open, I designed it with the intent to wear it mostly as just a sweater. It’s a little ..read more

We usually have a Charlie Brown tree that’s too weak to support a garland. But this year we pulled out the fake tree so I got to make a garland! This chunky crochet garland is actually based off THIS more detailed bubble puff garland tutorial that I shared a few years ago. I really should ..read more
