I am so excited to finally share my first sweater pattern of 2019! This sweater is such a quick and easy, basic sweater! Everyone needs a basic sweater, right?! The Bombshell Sweater is so versatile and easily customizable to fit your preferences! I made mine as a cropped sweater, but it can also be made into a full length sweater! It is a top-down workup, using only 2 basic stitches, and no sewing!
I used one of my favorite yarns, Knit Pick Brava Sport, for this sweater. It’s lightweight and has a nice drape, making this sweater great for layering over a tank top! Knit Picks Brava Sport is currently my go-to sport weight yarn for garments. It’s soft and washes up very nicely. It’s 100% acrylic, which I like for a basic garment.

The Catherine Hat is one of my very first crochet patterns! First came the Catherine Cowl, and I had to make a matching hat! Now, I’ve updated it to have a brim for a better fit and a more toque style hat. You can still make this into a slouchy by adding length if you want. Plus, I have added the old version to my Etsy shop so that you have both options available to you!
For the updated version, I used Lion Brand Yarn Vanna’s Choice yarn in Oatmeal. I just love this tweed colorway! It was perfect for this hat! Vanna’s choice is a great worsted weight yarn choice. It is very durable and holds up so well. The stitch definition is really nice as well.

The Ferguson Lap Blanket crochet pattern uses the same great textured stitch combo as the Ferguson Hat and the Ferguson Scarf. I just love this texture and the stitch combo is so easy and repetitive. It’s a wonderful project to work on in the car or while watching television.
I used two skeins of Lion Brand Yarn Pound of Love for my Ferguson Lap Blanket. It took me about a skein and a half to complete the measurements in the pattern. I loved using pound of love because you only have to add yarn once. The whole skein is 1020 yards!

The Camel Stitch Hat is such a great design, not only because of the awesome stitch, but also because it comes with 3 brim options! You can make this hat with a ribbed brim, as shown above, a front post brim, or a bonnet style brim with tassels! The camel stitch is also a really fun, textured stitch to use that works up fairly quick! I have a tutorial on how to do the camel stitch HERE.
The sample pictured above usesLion Brand Yarn Vanna’s Choice yarn. This is a yarn that I haven’t used much in the past but I really love the tweed yarn options that they have so when I want a good tweed, it is my go-to. This colorway that I used in the photos is called Grey Marble!

I love the camel stitch! It is such a fun stitch to create! It creates great texture, which I love, and it almost has a knitted look to it! Best of all, it’s super easy! If you know the basic stitches of crochet, you will be able to figure this one out too!
This video tutorial is made by me, so it’s a left-handed tutorial, but the workup is the exact same thing for a right-handed crocheter. You’ll just be going in the opposite direction as I am in the video.

I used one of my favorite yarns, Knit Picks Brava Sport, in the colorway Seraphim to create the sample cardigan pictured above. I love Brava Sport because it is so durable, yet soft! It is absolutely perfect for crocheting lightweight garments and I use it for many of my designs! It is machine washable and comes out of the wash just as nice as it went in! There are many color choices as well, and the yarn is very affordable!

The Sydney Shawl is a simple and fun asymmetrical shawl pattern that has an easy repeat and is great for self striping yarn or your favorite solid color! You can work this to be any length you desire, and wear it as a scarf, shawl, or wrap!
A few of my testers used the popular Lion Brand Mandala yarn to make their Sydney Shawl. The self striping effect of this yarn looks so great with this design!
• 50” at widest end x 32” high (sizing is versatile)
Pattern Notes
You can make the shawl as big or as small as you like by simply doing more or less rows before fastening off.
Starting chain does not count as first stitch.
Work your last stitch of each row in both loops to give it a cleaner finish.
