Crochet Pattern: Barely There Scarf

Posted in Best Crochet Patterns on April 17th, 2016 by Rachel Choi – 2 Comments

Are you a scarf lover that wants to wear scarves all year around? Winter scarves are easy to find, but no one wants something bulky and hot in the heat of summer. Crochet this scarf to add texture and color to your outfit, without the warmth. It’s so light, airy, and lacy, you’ll barely notice it’s there around your neck. To add just a touch of weight to the scarf, beads are used to create a subtle, fringe-like edging. The length and width of the scarf can be adjusted to be any size that you desire – from a little scarflette to a full size shawl.

Crochet Pattern: Trio Mesh Shawl

Posted in Best Crochet Patterns on April 10th, 2016 by Rachel Choi – Be the first to comment

This shawl is made with three mesh stitch patterns that are very similar, but vary in openness. The stitches work together to create a shawl that is more solid at the top and bottom and more open in the middle. Crochet this shawl for yourself or for a friend. It can be adjusted to be any size that you wish by following the instructions within the pattern to adjust the width and length. This light weight shawl is great for the warmer weather of summer. You can even wear it to the beach as a cover up! The pattern includes a tie strap to secure the shawl in place around your shoulders or wrapped around your waist, however you want to wear it.

Crochet Pattern: V Pendant Necklaces

Posted in Best Crochet Patterns on April 3rd, 2016 by Rachel Choi – Be the first to comment

This set includes 4 V-shaped pendants to crochet: a solid pendant, a striped pendant, and 2 different lacy pendants. Crochet your very own fashion necklaces with these quick patterns. Each V-shaped pendant is quick to crochet, you’ll have ready to wear necklaces in no time! I love the contrast between the soft look of crochet with the metal of the necklace chain. But if you prefer an all crocheted necklace, feel free to crochet a chain in place of the metal chain. The chain can be made as long or short as you desire. You can also crochet the pendant in different weights of yarn and/or different hook sizes to create a bigger or smaller pendant.

Crochet Pattern: First-Timer Doily

Posted in Best Crochet Patterns on March 27th, 2016 by Rachel Choi – Be the first to comment

Are you ready to crochet your first doily? Here is a pattern just for you! Doilies can be intimidating, but this pattern uses basic crochet stitches and a slightly thicker thread to make a doily that is easy to crochet. Even though the pattern is easy, it doesn’t lack in interesting shaping or lace work. The doily has a classic look that even experienced doily crocheters can enjoy. If you’re having trouble crocheting with thread, feel free to try the pattern with a thicker thread or regular yarn first. Once you are comfortable crocheting with thread, try the doily with thinner weights of thread for an even lacier look.

Crochet Pattern: Lilac Trellis Mandala

Posted in Best Crochet Patterns on March 20th, 2016 by Rachel Choi – Be the first to comment

This crochet pattern was requested by several Crochet Spot readers and even named by one. The Lilac Trellis Mandala would make a beautiful addition to your home decor this spring. Crochet it with light weight yarn as recommended in the pattern to create a doily sized mandala that can be used as a trivet or hot pad. If crocheted with medium/worsted weight yarn, it will turn out even larger, about the size of a placemat. Use thinner yarns to create smaller mandalas if you wish. Feel free to crochet the mandala with 3 or more of your favorite colors to give it a different and unique look. The pattern is not recommended for beginners as it will require frequent color changes, and unique stitchery to create the colorful and intricate look.
