Dear Crochet Friend,

We have a WindFall of fabulous cool-weather patterns for you! The I Like Crochet October 2024 Issue has 61 projects for you: Stay cozy and stylish from head to toe, go fancy or casual, and create a tote for any occasion! Let’s take a peek at some of what’s in the I Like Crochet October 2024 Issue!

These Sweaters? Trendsetters

Carry the warmth of the sun with you wherever you go when you wear our Harvest Sun Embossed Yoke Sweater. This round yoke top-down sweater will be a favorite in your fall wardrobe, with its beautiful embossed lines around the yoke. This figure-flattering sweater is rated easy, so even beginning crocheters can take on this project!

If you still have some warm days ahead, our breezy Raegan Mesh Sweater is the perfect transition piece. Chain stitches and strategically placed post crochets create a beautiful bridge-like pattern. And heavy worsted yarn helps this project work up quickly.

Our Trendsetter sweater section gives you plenty of creative options:

• Purple Passion Sweatshirt
• Cailyn Henley Sweater
• Champagne Fringe Sweater
• Changing Seasons Sweater
• Plum Raspberry Pullover

Step into a New Season

The coming cooler weather calls for some cool accessories. Keep your legs comfy in style with our Cabled Leg Warmers, and learn a new crochet technique in the process! The legwarmers feature a lovely cable stitch down the front and back. The button-up sides ensure a custom fit. Or create a more vintage look with our Vintage Vanilla Latte Leg Warmers.

When it’s time to break out the boots, make sure you have your new boot cuffs ready to go. You’ll love the understated charm of our Classic Scalloped Boot Cuffs with their gentle scalloped edge. Or make our Classic Boot Cuffs for a more relaxed, rustic look.

And keep your toes toasty two different ways: make our Toes-ty Slippers—perfect as a first pair of socks, with a simple heel and gusset—or our Relaxing Socks, which are as fun to make as they are to wear!

Totes Adorable Fall Bags

Let’s face it: we love yarn. But yarn takes up space. So we can always use another bag—tote or otherwise, right? The decorative detail, wooden beads, and casual tassels give our Boho Medallion Bag a laid-back look. This eclectic cross-body bag can be finished in a weekend, ready for your next adventure. Looking for something a little more formal? How about our Penelope Black and White Purse? This 1960s London-inspired purse features a straightforward repeat pattern to create a classy diagonal plaid. Finish this bag off with a metal purse frame with a clasp and you’re ready for a swanky evening out.

We have so many adorable bags in so many styles, you won’t be short on ideas. Also in this issue:

• Doting on Stripes Tote
• Mabel Dot Motif Bag
• Pamela Granny Square Bum Bag

This dimensional, lacy cowl is far easier to make than it looks! If you’re ready for a challenge with a beautiful payoff, consider making the Griselda Wrap. This rectangular shawl features lovely lacy motifs. Hand-dyed yarn adds extra texture to this elegant pattern.

The look and feel of this sweater is just stupendous! And a new fall cardigan is always a good project choice. Our Amethyst Lace Cardigan is versatile, cozy and stylish! The generous ribbed collar is oh so comfortable, and the half double crochet of this pattern creates flattering vertical lines.

Timeless in Tweed

Nothing says Fall like something in tweed! Our City Tweed Scarf uses three colors to create your perfect go-to fall accessory. First of all, this pattern is rated Easy, so crocheters of all experience levels can make this. Second, the pattern is easy to memorize, so you can put this project in your travel tote and work on it anywhere! You pick the color combinations you like to get just the look you want!

As the weather turns colder, let’s keep our furry friends in mind. For a truly adorable and cozy project, make a matching set for you and your dog. Our Adventure Dog Cowl and Dog Mom Cowl will keep you both warm and looking great! Best of all, this Easy-rated project works up quickly and it looks like it’s knit, but it’s not.

Or stay warm and fashionable in our Up North Star Stitch Cap—it’s easier to make than it looks, too! Rated Easy, this the perfect balance of warmth and fashion. Make it for yourself or for a friend. Or make one of these:
