ESCALANTE LACE WRAP PATTERN

Fun and colorful, but lightweight and elegant; this wrap will augment any outfit. Wear it over a fancy dress or throw it on a jean jacket. Versatile and beautiful, the Escalante Lace Wrap is always there when you need it.

I designed this lightweight wrap to be elegant, but still bright and fun. I was inspired by my Nana, who is always beautiful and elegant, but also spunky and the most cheerful person I know. I wanted a delicate wrap that could be dressed up or down; a piece of clothing that would go with everything, but also stand out in its simplicity and beauty.

SQUAMISH COWL PATTERN

This “quilted” cowl is made by sewing together crocheted squares. Incredibly simple, the technique makes the cowl look more complex than it really is!

I wanted to create a cowl that had a lot of texture, but was very simple to work up. I chose to create ribbed squares, using double crochet, that I sewed together in an alternating pattern to create this patchwork look. I also love a good fringe and added one to the bottom edge of this cowl.

STARBURST GRANNY SQUARE SHORTS/SKIRT PATTERN

These soft cotton shorts are a dream to make and feel amazing to wear. Throw them on over a swimsuit for the beach or just around town when it’s hot. Incredibly comfy, they can turn into your lounge or jammy bottoms this fall. I never want to take them off!

I am so pleased with how these shorts turned out! I used to hate making granny squares – something about the repetitive crocheting did not interest me – but as I get more into making my own clothes I have started to enjoy designing them by just using granny squares. This simple pattern works like a custom recipe – even with a skirt option. Read on to learn how to make your own pair of shorts or skirt!

MELLOW YELLOW CROP TOP PATTERN

This summery top will have you feeling mellow. The lightweight cotton yarn feels dreamy in the heat and looks adorable over a bikini, sports bra, or bandeau!

I finally finished this design this week and had a chance to wear it out to the beach this weekend! I loved the feel of the soft cotton and was comfortable hiking and lounging in this top. It is versatile and ready to wear wherever you’re headed this weekend!
