Boho Vibe
Give your favorite tote a fabulous makeover with our colorful Stitch & Switch Tote project! Dress up your classic tote and give it a one-of-a-kind look with beautiful crossbody straps that really make a statement! This Easy-rated project is sure to turn heads!
Add a touch of elegance to your table with our Wanderstitch Crochet Table Runner. This garden-inspired design features textured granny squares in two sizes to create a meandering garden of color across your table. This project is easier than it looks and is a great way to take the granny square beyond the afghan.
Our Wildberry Mandala will be a lasting reminder of some of your favorite parts of summer. Inspired by fresh strawberries and blueberries, you’ll be sure to harvest plenty of compliments with this stunning centerpiece—perfect to show off homemade desserts or serve as a colorful table accent.
And we have more relaxing boho vibe for you, including our Peach Grove Backpack, Daisy Chain bangles & sandals set, Lunar Leaves Plant Hanger, & more!
Modern Mariner
No matter the season, it feels so good to carry the sound of the sea with you. Take that feeling beyond the beach with our Seafarer’s Banner. This crochet interpretation of the nautical alphabet spells out “ocean views only.” This Easy-rated project can be done in a weekend, ready to add some seaside vibe to your party space.
Our Leather & Stripe Pillow is a lovely accent for a welcoming, laid-back space. The pattern will remind you of ocean waves and clear skies. The crisp harbor hues come together with a bold faux leather wrap right down the middle. This sophisticated pillow is also rated Easy, so crocheters of all skill levels can enjoy making it.
And add a cheerful accessory to your summer wardrobe with our Rosy Knots Tote. This big, bold bag is beginner-friendly, worked in oversized single crochet and topped with a vibrant, repurposed scarf exquisitely knotted to make the handles. It’s the perfect blend of fashion and function!
