"The Dreamer Sweater is just the softest thing! Using Lion Brand's Baby Soft Boucle Yarn, this comfy crochet jumper has a ‘teddy' or ‘sherpa fleece' look to it! This modern and on-trend sweater is crocheted in 4 panels using half double crochets and then the ribbing is crocheted using Lion Brand's Feels Like Butta. The fun mix of textures - the boucle fleece contrasting with the smooth silky yarn - gives this sweater such a unique look. You can also add an optional front pocket to keep your hands warm! The sample is cropped length but the pattern includes alteration instructions so you can make this sweater any length you want. This pattern is written in English using US crochet terms. Contains step-by-step instructions with pictures. "

Hudson Cardigan - Free Crochet Pattern
Find the INEXPENSIVE AD-FREE PDF for this pattern on Etsy HERE.
Today I have a unique garment for you all, the Hudson Cardigan uses a textured stitch called the “Soft Cluster” once blocked gives a BEAUTIFUL drape and gorgeous look. I discovered this stitch when my Father in Law found a crochet stitch book in his storage room. I am sadly the only one in my family who crochets or knits, but on the bright side I was instantly given this amazing book!
The Sideways Crochet Jumper
"I have not taken this crochet jumper off- my Sideways Jumper- is a free pattern on the blog. Check out my blog post, read about the construction or scroll down for the free crochet jumper pattern. The construction of this crochet jumper is slightly different because I have literally turned it on its side! As a result you get vertical lines of stitches running through the jumper. These are great because they frame your silhouette and create a nice flowing garment. The main body of this crochet jumper is worked in rows running from neck to waist. I have used half double crochet stitch worked through the third loop only because I just love this stitch. As a result you get a ribbed crochet jumper that looks knitted."
Cropped Cardigan
This Cropped Cardigan has been designed and tested for sizes XS through to 5XL! The back and two front pieces are made separately and then joined together after they are made. The inside ribbing is done at the end! It's mostly double crochet stitches so this pattern works up super quickly for a last minute addition to your wardrobe! The Cropped Cardigan is the perfect accessory in the summer. Great to add for an extra layer in the evening without adding too much. It's a great quick addition for your wardrobe since double crochet stitches are the main stitch used and the fact that this cropped cardigan is half the size of a normal sweater!
