This free knitted poncho with hood pattern features a unique design that will keep you warm and cozy on cool days.
This pattern was so much fun to create. I’ve always been fascinated by mobius strips, and I prefer ear warmers that come in at the top, so mixing the two seemed only natural to me. This pattern is first worked in rows, then the long strip is joined into a mobius, and then it’s finished off in rounds. This pattern can be used to create ear warmers with nearly any weight yarn. I hope you enjoy creating these ear warmers as much as I did!
The Looped in Love Skirt was inspired by my Dragon Wing Scarf. I love the way the increases work within the Jacob’s Ladder Stitch, and it just screamed “make me a flared skirt!!” I learned a long time ago, when a yarn or stitch pattern talks to me, it’s in my best interest to listen. So here it is, a fun skirt for all ages that flares between vertical sections of looped stitches. It’s made from the top down, so it can be made to any length that suits your fancy. The longer the skirt, the more yarn it will take.
Hot Hot Hot The Flame Square is full of post stitches and awesome texture! Grab your “I” hook and Vanna’s choice yarn in these firey colors.
Amalthea is a striped shawl that mixes lace and solid sections and is made from the corner out, creating an asymmetrical and intriguing look.
This long skinny wrap features alternating sections of garter stitch with sections of stockinette stitch and utilizes short rows to create it’s round shape.
Off to Sausalito is a striking unisex hat that works wonderfully with Camillo’s Scarf. Made with Crystal Palace Sausalito yarn and worked in continuous rounds, it features spiraling stripes in a simple single crochet v~stitch. The hat is actually rather easy to make, though I listed it as intermediate because it can be tricky to find the ch-1 to work into sometimes, and because of the continuous rounds. However, if you just take your time and go carefully, it becomes easy after a few rounds.
Also known as a festival hood, the hoodie cowl is perfect for festival goers or those who want a hood without a hoodie.
This Textured Bath Mat is super colorful and fun for your feet. I love the way textured bath mats feel on my feet! This one combines 2 sizes of popcorn stitches and Jacob’s Ladder stitch along with a rainbow of colors. The Red Heart Creme de la Creme 100% cotton yarn is the perfect yarn for this joyful creation.
It’s time for a new Crochet Along (CAL)!
Our CAL will run for 6 weeks, counting this week ~ this is your prep week. Every Monday the week’s post will be released, with all the info you need for that week. I would love to add one more post after the final CAL post to show off your creations. So make sure to take pictures as you go, and share them in the Jessie At Home CAL / KAL facebook group. That is where I will go to find photos to share.
I have had so many requests for a crochet version of the Dragon Wing Cowl, that I just had to oblige! So here it is: the Dragon Wing Scarf. It is a bit longer and more flowy than the knit counterpart, and I really like it! There are notes on how to make it shorter if you want to button it as a cowl, but I really like the scarf. The Crystal Palace Panda Pearl yarn is perfect for this fashionable accessory. It’s so very soft and luscious!
