This pattern utilizes a unique combination of stitches to give you a thick finished product. Ever Ridge is perfect for protecting your counters and tabletops. It is a great stash-buster too! You only need about 80 yards of the main yarn and 15 yards of the contrasting yarn. You'll be surprised and impressed at how you work the stitches to create the thick ridges on this sturdy pot holder. Put your surface slip stitch skills to the test too to give it a lovely contrasting stripe!
Make this beautiful shawl with a floral design. It is really light and perfect for summer. The floral design is worked in rows and does not involve joining squares.

The beatiful stitch pattern can even be worked by beginners.
The Citrus Twist Tote brings a fresh squeeze to the ever popular crochet cotton market bag! The Citrus Twist Tote is made with 4 bright colors of Red Heart Scrubby Smoothie that made me think of… well, citrus! But of course, there are 30 gorgeous solids and prints of Scrubby Smoothie to choose from - who want to whip up a Berry Smoothie version? Or something Beachy in cool blues? The Citrus Twist Tote features a two-row repeat that's easy to memorize and works up fast. I have included all the row instructions (rather than a general repeat) so you can cross them off as you go - time for some of that “easy summer living”, or at least easy summer crocheting!

I've also designed several other crochet kitchen towels that are not characters, you can find them all on my blog.
The Beach Breeze Kimono Top is a short-sleeved cardigan that's perfect for the warmer Spring and Summer seasons! Wear it as a lacy swimsuit cover-up, or a light shrug over a summer dress!

The shell stitch used in this pattern is repetitive and simple, making this cover-up a quick and easy project. Crochet this beautiful and versatile beach cover up as a lovely gift, or for yourself!
