Lightweight style never looked so good!
Dear Crochet Friend,
Sometimes all you need is a little layer to take the edge off a strong breeze, or block the chill of the evening air (or the too-cold AC). In a lot of cases, just a little lace will do it. In the I Like Crochet Light-As-Air Collection, you’ll find lacy layers that are casual, classy, even quirky. Find the layers that work best for you!
Light & Lovely
A light layer can be anything but boring. Our Lighter Than Air Top is classic, elegant, and airy. This lovely top will be at home on date night, a day at the beach, or whenever you want a little extra spring in your step. When you need just a little layer to keep away the chill, a different sort of airy mesh may be just the thing. The Michigan Mesh Sweater looks effortlessly flawless and will probably become your go-to pullover for bright and breezy days.
Classic & Cool Cardigans
Look cool in the warm weather in your new Marilla Cocoon Cardigan. This piece makes an excellent colorful topper to swimwear and summer outfits; it’s like bringing the summer breeze with you! This fabulous piece (featured on our cover) is rated easy, so we can all make one! If you’re looking forward to warmer days by the water, you can start evoking the feel of waves and white caps with our White Caps Cardigan. You’ll love the unique stitches in their wavy pattern. Layer it over different colors for different effects. For something more traditional but still light and lacy, our Mint Breeze Cardigan is all that. The unfussy details and figure-flattering vertical lines make this cardigan versatile enough to wear to work or out on a weekend walk.
Slip Into Comfort
Maybe you need something to top off an outfit at the end of the day as the cool of evening starts coming on. Our La Jolla Swoncho features a lopsided lace stitch pattern that an intermediate crocheter (or an adventurous beginner!) could finish in a weekend. Or make our lacy, romantic, Lovely Lilac Shrug. It’s lightweight, perfect for a summer evening, and a beautiful layer to add to your evening outfit.
Isn’t it amazing how a little layer can make all the difference? Whether you tend toward the whimsical or the practical, Our Light-As-Air Crochet Collection offers up plenty of inspiration to create some cool looks for the warmer days ahead.
