Finding a project in the warmer months of the year can be difficult. Personally, I love a blanket or sweater project which is impossible to work on during warm weather. Thankfully for you, I have been crocheting for nine years and I know which projects are doable in the spring and summer.
what makes a perfect spring and summer crochet project
When I am brainstorming the perfect project for spring and summer time I often go over a list in my head.
- yarn fiber content
- fibers like silk, linen, or cotton are better for summer wearables
- size of project
- a smaller project won’t be as hot on you when you are working
- this means any fiber is ok for a smaller item
- for bigger pieces revisit the yarn fiber content point
small tapestries
This tomato tapestry is a pattern I designed. It is a very quick pattern, I can make it in around four hours. Every piece I have made has had the same colors as the photo above, however you could really play around with the colors for this piece.
This tapestry pattern is by one of my foavorite people. Liz Arts and Crafts on Instagram is a genius and this is one of her patterns. This Pulling Teeth Tapestry was the project I made when I was recovering from my wisdom tooth removal.
This pattern is called Heart Snake Eyes and it is also by Liz Arts and Crafts. If you can’t tell yet, Liz is one of my absolute favorite designers. This pattern is smaller than the Pulling Teeth pattern. This piece being smaller also means it is faster to make.
small accessories
I developed this pattern in the spring time two years ago. This pattern is not overly difficult, but if you are not very comfortable with basic stitches could be quite difficult. This pattern is called the Garden Tote Bag.
Bucket hats are a perfect spring and summer crochet project. They are fast and easy to make. There are many patterns out there, but this is the one I have developed. This pattern is called the Emma Bucket Hat and it is very simple and perfect for beginners.
