The Skyscraper Chunky Scarf is inspired by those tall building I grew up with and love so much in New York City. The open stitches in the scarf reminds me of the building windows and how the city is truly magical at any time of the day or night. The Skyscraper Chunky Scarf works up quickly and easily, and lets the yarn really shine and be the star of the show. This scarf is perfect for any guy or gal.
The Bellevue Cardigan is comfy, easy to crochet, and includes sizes XS to 6X. But most of all, it's a dramatic yet wearable topper that is sure to add something very special to any outfit! The Bellevue Cardigan is crocheted raglan style, from the top down. Then when it hits the shoulder line, pleats are added for all the crochet drama! This flared look continues into a wide, bell-sleeved, cropped cardi, that's finished off with just enough of a waistline to give it shape. I didn’t add a buttonhole because I wanted to be able to use a variety of shawl pins, broaches, and pins to secure it. And I wanted to be able to move them around, for different looks! I can't wait to see your versions!
The fingerless mitts are such a doddle to make and take hardly any time at all. They are worked flat in rows and then joined at the side, just leaving a few stitches for the thumbhole and there you have it! The top section has a super easy cable stitch that you'll master in no time. The mitts will fit an average adult hand but you can just add or subtract a few stitches to the cuff and a couple more rows to make them bigger or smaller to suit you. If you ever need any help with sizing then please just let me know and I’d be more than happy to help you out.

Life is often hard, and even the clearest skies have clouds sometimes. And as crocheters, we can make it better. One way is by making prayer or comfort shawls for those who need an extra hug, and to feel our love. The Big Sky Shawl was designed with this idea in mind - while maintaining a sense of style. The Big Sky Shawl is made with Lion Brand Homespun, a favorite yarn for those crafting for others. It's warm, soft, and the yarn creates the texture - which means simple stitches shine. And the Big Sky Shawl does indeed use simple stitches, so almost anyone can make this easy crochet prayer shawl pattern! The colors I used for the Big Sky Shawl are Montana Sky and Clouds - appropriate, no? Streaks of gray cut through the blue sky, but there is more blue than gray, to remind us of the bright times to come. The shaping creates a triangular shawl that's more V shaped than anything, with corners that wrap easily around the shoulders to stay in place. And it doesn't just help the person you give it to - it helps you too! Studies have shown time and again how crocheting improves our mental health, making this an excellent way to help others while you help yourself. You can wear the Big Sky shawl across the shoulders as a standard shawl, or wrapped around the neck with the point in front - either way, the optional tassels on the points help keep it where you put it. It's only 20 rows long (plus a couple rounds for the border), so you can whip one up in a just a few evenings.
Next, this key pouch is a beautiful, jolly mushroom. Indeed, not -quite-Super Mario, it is nevertheless a bit evocative of the game. Other than that, it's just so adorable!
Three ounces of Caron Simply Soft Brites are used in a variety of colors to produce this beautiful Stained Glass Scarf.

Although this looks like a tough pattern, fortunately, it's for advanced beginners, so just about anyone can crochet one.
