This, my friends, is the perfect opportunity to flaunt your favorite knit and crochet accessories. Get out your beautiful shawls, your lacy scarves, and your finger-less gloves. (And if you don’t have any yet, now’s the time to make yourself some!)
Be sure to wear
several layers of clothing; if it warms up to 100 degrees later, you can always
shed a few layers; keep them in a convenient place so you can grab ’em again
after the sun sets and the temperature drops.
Spring is a delightful time to be a knit or crochet enthusiast;
there’s inspiration everywhere! If you’d like to work on a new springtime
project, please help yourself to our free spring shawl/Scarf patterns.

One of my favorite things about springtime: all the glorious
flowers in bloom. I love it that you can crochet lovely flowers at any time of
year, but I often feel inspired to make new flowers in the spring. You too? If
so, be sure to check out our lovely free flower patterns we have posted just
for you.

Have you started your spring cleaning yet? When you’re ready to
get started with it, you’ll want to whip up some useful projects such as dishcloths, washcloths and scrubbies to
help your tasks along. Be sure to
grab some (or all!) of our free patterns for these household helpers.
Dishcloths
Crochet dishcloth patterns make perfect gifts. They are quick to make, and they don't require large amounts of yarn. However, they are big enough to be an interesting project that you can immerse yourself in.
Dishcloths are terrific projects when you want to practice new stitch techniques, play with color changes, and explore how various ideas work in combination with one another.
In addition to making great gifts, they add fun to your own kitchen chores. When we can delight in the little things, every day is just a little bit better. That's what a crochet dishcloth can do for your home.
Washcloths
Made with 100% cotton yarn these washcloths are super flexible and absorbent, perfect for tackling the worst kitchen messes! And the combination of stitches makes a complicated looking texture but it’s really quite easy, and they work up pretty fast.
Scrubbies
Got dirty pots, pans and dishes that you need to clean up? Scrub them ’til they sparkle and shine! Our crocheted scrubby will help you get the job done.
A plastic scrubber is helpful for removing baked-on foods from pots and pans. If you want to try making your own plastic scrubbers, you’re invited to grab our free instructions and pattern.
So far, this pot scrubber is my favorite — because it’s nice and flexible, and it’s abrasive enough to get yucky goo off of a pot or pan. As far as scrubbers go - it’s a super quick project and it’s absolutely adorable!!!
