Can’t you just feel that ocean breeze and smell the salt in the air?

Dear Crocheter,

There’s no mistaking the relaxed vibe of a nautical design. Rich blues and reds anchored in classic crochet stitches summon the sound of seashells tumbling in the waves while sailboats drift lazily on the horizon.

You walk along the water’s edge with the sand cushioning your feet while the unmistakable salty air wraps you in relaxation. Every now and then a crab shuffles in front of you on its way back into the surf and seagulls rest on the pier. It’s warm under the sun, but the cotton Alix One-Shoulder Tee you just made breathes and helps you stay cool and look fabulous.

When you get back to your cabana, you’ll change into the Vivid Coral Reef Top – Seaworthy Edition, ideal for a casual dinner overlooking the beach. What will the rest of the evening bring? That’s up to you, but one thing is for sure.

With the designs in the new Nautical Crochet Collection, you’ll look and feel great.

This collection of relaxed fits and classic bold colors is perfect for that seaside vibe, whether you’re at the lake, taking in the sun at the ocean’s edge, or heading to the grocery store to grab supplies for a weekend cookout.

Crochet stripes and nautical motifs make this maritime collection a summer must-have.

These easy and intermediate-level patterns include:

• Complete stitch instructions
• List of materials, notions, and hook size
• Pattern and special stitch notes
• Finishing instruction
• Full color, detailed photographs of each pattern

So whether you are just starting out with crochet or your skills are the talk of the town, you get everything you need to make every pattern.

The Set Your Sites on Stripes Top is sure to be a staple in your summer wardrobe. This lightweight top, from designer Lana Jois, is casual and easy, perfect for your favorite cut-offs, and equally at home in the office. The denim and sand-colored yarns are right at home on the beach, too.

For something a little brighter, but equally versatile and relaxed, the Vivid Coral Reef Top, from Tanya Eberhardt, is a summer staple. With a bold, colorblock style, this peppy top features a simple stitch pattern that’s easy to work up. Make no mistake, though. This top might be easy to make, but it looks stunning! The bright colors and clean lines are sure to turn heads.

Kids get beach days, too, right? The Sailor Sweater, from Karen Whooley, is the perfect cover up for little ones. The nautical blues and greys of this light summer sweater will have your favorite little sailor ready for action on a breezy night.

Of course, no outfit is complete with something on your feet and the Captain Cutie Boat Shoes are just the thing to go with the Sailor Sweater. These comfy baby shoes are patterned after class adult boat shoes. The pattern is worked with a double sole, contrasting color stitching, and a simple bow to make sure that baby can enjoy a fun and fashionable summer day.

There’s still so much more in the Nautical Crochet Collection, like the navy and white Sandy Beaches Tank. This light summer tank is ideal for an evening out or just relaxing in your favorite beach chair watching the waves roll in and out.

Make no mistake, the pieces in the Nautical Crochet Collection are here to help you relax and enjoy the summer. Just wait until you see the French Riviera Shift Dress! The retro-inspired design is so fun!
