HandMade: The Heights Crochet Sweater Top.

Hello there! Happy Thursday to you! I've had the yarn I used for this top for awhile, had picked it primarily due to the color of it. It kind of frightened me. I'm not particular drawn to this color and I wanted to challenge myself to create a pattern that would turn that apprehension around. I felt with the color, I wanted to design a pattern that can be utilize throughout the majority of the year. A short sleeve top that also had a bit of duality to it so that it can roomy and airy for more warmer days, but also a comfy choice to layer.

What I love about this sweater, is that it's incredibly comfy and the color truly brightens up any outfit. You can dress this top up or throw a pair of jeans and you're good to go! Though to be honest, the best thing about this top, is that it is one of a kind, it's handmade and there's entirely nothing that feels better than that!

HandMade: The Come Together Crochet Stripes Sweater.

Hello there! I hope the week has treated you well thus far.I recently traded and donated a few bits of clothing and in the pile was an older striped sweater. I wanted to challenge myself in not purchasing a store bought sweater, but to crochet myself one of my own. 

Being a huge fan of layering, I opted for a short-sleeved crochet sweater so that I can layer it to my liking. It is a tiny bit over sized to accommodate for that personal choice. Alternating between white and black yarn to create this sweater, I create a scoop neck for the front and back of the top, so that the button ups would fit suitably.

 Project Details:
The yarn I used was Caron Simply Soft in Black and in White. 2 Skeins each.
The hook I used was a K/101/2-6.50MM

HandMade: Portions For Foxes Crochet Sweater.

Hello there! Here is my completed project from last last weeks', 'What's on my hook?' 
Though this project has been complete for awhile, it was put on the back burner due to perfecting the handmade Christmas gifts I was working on for others. Though now, here it is, my first time attempting to create a sweater like this! I must say, I am more than elated of how it came out and I have handfuls upon handfuls of designs, that will become a reality in the near future. I must admit that this sweater was incredibly easy to follow and create, much easier than I thought it was going to be. Which is quite a lovely plot twist!

Trying new things this year and I can't wait to experiment and make many many more (not just animal) designed out sweaters and tops. I just wish there was more time to create them all!

The crochet technique I used, was all half double crochet.

The Yarn I used:  Grey, Burnt Orange, Cream, Black// Red Heart Yarn and Red Heart Soft
The Hook I used: K/101/2-6.50MM
The Pattern I used: Experimental: My Own!
