Lindsey Stephens ~ Poetry in Yarn Round Up

I recently met an amazing woman and wonderful designer: Lindsey Stephens of Poetry In Yarn. She is super fun, and her designs are delightful! She has both crochet and knit patterns, many for sale, and some free as well.

I made the flower from her Flower Necklace pattern. I made it a bit bigger and with a looser gauge than in the pattern because I want to hand stitch it onto a piece of felt and attach it to a headband for one of my daughters. It will be adorable! The pattern was very well written and easy to follow.

Here is a little of what Lindsey has to say about herself:

“Lindsey Stephens is a crochet designer and Professional Member of the Crochet Guild of America (CGOA) as well as a member of The National Needlearts Association (TNNA). She has had her designs published in a national magazine as well as by yarn companies, and has taught needle arts and crafting classes in a variety of venues. Lindsey learned to crochet while on a three day road trip when her family relocated from her home state of Texas to Connecticut. When she first arrived in Connecticut, Lindsey owned 2 skeins of yarn. She has been steadily adding to her stash ever since.

Poetry in Yarn is the result of Lindsey’s love of expression and experimentation in fiber arts and her desire to share her discoveries with others.”

Here are a selection of her patterns, both knit and crochet, some free and some for sale. Below are the names and links of each pattern, along with a little something that the designer has to say about them.

The Infinite Twilight pattern is one pattern that works up in two sizes, depending on the yarn or hook you use. Using Red Heart Boutique Twilight and an N hook will create an adult size cowl, and using Red Heart Boutique Infinity and a J hook will create a child size cowl (you can actually get 3 child cowls from one skein!) Both cowls are plush and warm and make for great Mommy and Me photo ops!

Wednesday Round Up ~ Purple

Tonight I have a collection of purple crochet patterns to share with you. Of course, you can make your crochet creations in whatever color you like, but these sure are pretty in purple.

Here are the names and links of each pattern, along with a little something that each designer has to say about them.

I love those big infinity scarves with solid sections and open sections. Chained to Infinity is my version of one of those fun scarves. It has alternating angled single crochet sections and chain sections. I made my sample in a color that is similar to Pantone’s 2015 Color of the Year: Marsala.

Quick & Easy Crochet Cowls

Tamara Kelly ~ the awesome designer behind Moogly ~ is now also a Craftsy instructor! Her first Craftsy class is Quick & Easy Crochet Cowls, sponsored by Lion Brand.

I enrolled for the class right away, and watched it last weekend. The class includes instruction and patterns for the 3 awesome cowls seen pictured throughout this post. The first is Amazing 45 Minute Cowl made with just one skein of Lion Brand Amazing yarn. This cowl is super quick and easy, and I love that Tamara takes the time to give lots of useful tips and tricks, both the kind that a new crocheter will love to learn, and the kind that can make a seasoned crocheter say “why didn’t I know that already!?”

Wednesday Round Up 1/14/15 ~ Cowls

Cowls are cool! Or warm. Right, cowls are warm. And over the past few years, cowls have become…hot. Yup, they are hot! So I have collected some crochet and knit cowl patterns to share with you. There are 2 round ups here, the first is crochet, and the second is knit, both are: COWLS!!

Here are the names and links of each crochet pattern, along with a little something that each designer has to say about them.

The Candy Ribbons Cowl features rounds of post stitches and rounds of long V stitches made with triple treble crochet stitches. The pattern is written in 3 lengths, so you can choose the look you like the best! Candy Ribbons was named by Marsha N., a creative member of the Crochet Lounge group on Facebook. She came up with the name because the cowl reminds her of the candy ribbons you sometimes see at Christmas time. Thank you, Marsha!

I bought some beautiful yarn at Rhinebeck Sheep & Wool festival this year, and one of those yarns inspired this pattern. When you have beautiful yarn, you don’t need a lot going on in your pattern. This linen stitch cowl has a small amount of shaping around the bottom half to form to your shoulders and keep you nice and warm!

Winter Set Crochet Patterns by Jessie At Home

Eli, Ali & Leo Winter Set

Last year I came up with a series of patterns that I used for most of the Holiday gifts we gave. It ended up being a series of 6 patterns. A hat, a scarf, and a cowl, each in worsted weight yarn and chunky yarn. With either weight, you hold 2 strands together as 1 when making the items, and use a large hook, so they work up super quick! I often have people ask about these patterns, and it becomes a bit of a pain to copy all 6 links to all 6 patterns every time. So, I have listed all 6 patterns here. Click on the links under the images to go to each pattern. Enjoy!
