Free Crochet Pattern: Vibrant Puffs Candy Basket
Crochet Spot

1y ago
I’ve talked about the simple things that inspire me in my designs before. Well this time, believe it or not, it was a simple plastic “trash can” at Walmart that did it. Okay, so maybe it was supposed to be some kind of storage tub, but it could be a trash can. You may have seen it actually. All white with rows of multi-colored hearts. The vibrant colors on the plain white, along with the simple design of the product, just appealed to me and I wondered what it would look like in crochet. I was going to make this another favor bag but as I worked I realized it would make a better basket. I use ..read more

I love to crochet whimsical things but nothing gratifies me more than being able to make something useful. So after enduring the terrible screech of our chairs and foldout table on our hard floors I decided it was time to meet this need. Though I have included patterns for two kinds of chair/table legs, this method can be altered to make socks for nearly any style of round legs. Skill Level: Finished Size: This tutorial explains how to make your own socks so the finished product will depend on your chair or table legs. Materials: Medium weight yarn is preferred but you can use whateve ..read more

How do you feel about those long winter days ahead? Whether you like them or are in dread of them, I propose this will be a wall hanging for everyone! Here’s my reasoning: For the lover of winter, this is the perfect way to enjoy it better. However, for the one who dreads it, this is the perfect project to add some color to the dreary days! Corner to corner crochet is a lot of fun. I love the variety of designs you can make simply by working blocks of color. This project features 3 colors, a tad more involved then 2 color C2C crochet but don’t let that scare you. Follow the graph and don’t fo ..read more

Free Crochet Pattern: Sweater Mug Cozies
Crochet Spot

How are you about sweaters? I love them! So I was completely sold on the idea of making simple sweater cozies for your mugs. After all, what could be more perfect than a ribbed sweater pattern or two on your mug of hot drink? There are two sweater cozies to choose from, (or make them both!), a lovely red with bold ribbing and subtle side ribbing, and a warming green with defined lines and a firm reverse single crochet border. Each cozy is finished off with a rustic button. Since mugs seem to vary in size I have added instructions for changing the size. It is easy! Skill Level: Finished S ..read more

Free Crochet Pattern: Modern Bag Saver
Crochet Spot

If you normally keep those extra grocery bags stuffed into a cabinet then this pattern is for you! This is a simple pattern that works up quickly — that much closer to an organized cabinet. By making the adjustable ring large to begin with you have a hole in the bottom just big enough to pull out a bag but not so big they fall out themselves. The top is made like a drawstring bag, opening easily to add more bags and closing when it is hung up. I used some leftover Bernat Home Dec yarn to make this bag saver because it makes such clean and neat stitches, but feel free to choose another bulky w ..read more

Free Crochet Pattern: Rustic Pumpkin Favor Bag
Crochet Spot
by Amy Yarbrough
3y ago
Last year I designed the first favor bag that began a trend when I designed the Carrot Favor Bag for Easter. Since then I have crocheted a total of 6 favor bag designs, 4 revolving around Spring, you might say, and 2 at Christmas. Be sure to check out my other Favor Bag Crochet Patterns. This year I realized I hadn’t designed any for the Autumn season and I set about to remedy that. And wouldn’t you know what I would make? Are you a pumpkin maker? Every Autumn I get sucked into the fascination of the crocheted pumpkin. Perhaps it is the warm, festive colors that so suit the season, or perhaps ..read more

Free Crochet Pattern: Sampler Coasters
Crochet Spot

I designed these coasters out of necessity. With the warm temperatures, icy drinks create watery puddles quickly and I realized it was high time I made a set of coasters to fix this problem. Even though I am partial to round coasters I didn’t have any inspiration where they were concerned and instead fell back on a few stitch patterns that I had previously admired. Thus was born the idea to create these sampler coasters. Since a coaster is basic in its form the uniqueness had to come from the stitch. These coasters feature some exciting texture, or relief patterns, created with basic crochet ..read more

Free Crochet Pattern: Olive’s Granny Square Earrings
Crochet Spot

I’ve always loved the traditional granny square pattern and how adaptable it is. I’ve seen some lovely granny square earrings and wanted to do my own take on the pattern. These earrings are super lightweight but add some fun movement to your outfit. I love dangly earrings, but sometimes they’re too heavy and hurt my ears after a while…not the case here! They’re made of two granny squares joined together at one corner, with some extra scallops on the bottom. Super easy and lots of opportunity for color variation. They’re named after the dog who walked past me right when I was looking for namin ..read more

Free Crochet Pattern: Soccer Ball Plushie

After seeing a soccer ball plushie in the store I was like, “I can make that!” Have you ever done that before? To be honest, I do it too much. But anyway, I’m glad to say I was actually able to. When I sat down to begin crocheting it I realized I really needed an original looking soccer ball for reference. I ended up using pictures off the internet (which cannot rotate, as you may know) and simply following the pattern I could see. I have to say, I was not at all certain I was going to get it right. But I did! And have prepared a concise pattern for you so you can too. You will make two kinds ..read more

Free Crochet Pattern: Tiny Graduation Cap
Crochet Spot
by Claire Golden
3y ago
It’s graduation season! I just graduated college myself, and I wanted to celebrate the occasion with crochet, as always. This little graduation cap is what I came up with. You could make this hat in your grad’s school colors and include it with a graduation card, or stick it on a hair clip for a photo prop. Use your imagination and I bet you’ll come up with all sorts of awesome uses. It’s the perfect size for Barbies, so my helper Adele is modeling it for you. But it’s also the perfect size to perch atop a guinea pig or bunny. My sister just got an adorable bunny and I’ve been making lots of ..read more
