The Kensington Crochet Bolero Pattern

"This crochet bolero (crochet shrug) is made all in one piece! You just single crochet one long rectangle, do some simple sewing and you've made an adorable little crochet jacket! The ruffles are easy to add and take the cuteness up a notch. This amazingly cuddly and cozy bolero was made with Red Heart Hygge yarn. The pattern has been written so you can create a bolero for girls from 2 to 14 years old."

Callaina Tunisian Lace Bolero

The crochet Callaina Tunisian Lace Bolero is a great project for Spring and Summer. It's a great project to try Tunisian crochet, because you'll just make a rectangle, and don't have to worry about complex increases or decreases. For this project you're going to need 1 skein worsted weight hand dyed yarn, the one pictured is Baad Mom Yarns, Practical Mom. The bolero can be made both bigger and smaller by changing how many stitches you start with, making this a very adjustable project.

The Fastest, Easiest Crochet Poncho Pattern Ever

The name says it all! Learn how to crochet a poncho FAST using super bulky weight yarn and gorgeous, easy-to-crochet stitches that work up in a jiffy.

From the Designer: I don't know about you but I may be, what you'd call, garment avoidant. Don't get me wrong, I love garments... I love sweaters, wraps, cardigans, kimonos. all of them. And I especially like ponchos. However, I almost never make them because they take FOREVER to finish... and being a plus sized girl, I can never be sure they're going to fit right. That's why I designed this fastest and easiest crochet poncho pattern ever.

This pattern works up in a matter of hours and can be easily adjusted for petite or plus sized needs. And, while I don't usually recommend that crochet sellers make garments (because they're just not cost effective), this design just might be the perfect addition to your craft fair inventory.

Super bulky, soft, and super-duper cozy, this poncho is the perfect pattern to whip up as a quick gift or something special just for you to wear everywhere.. introducing, the Everywhere Poncho.
