July 17, 2020 by AllFreeCrochet Leave a Comment

Effortlessly Evergreen: 11 Crochet Afghan Patterns

December 30, 2019 by Stitch&Unwind Leave a Comment

When I think winter, obviously the first thing that comes to mind is the cold. And the snow. And maybe peppermint mochas. However, if you’re about to embark on a new crochet project and you’d like to capture that wintery feeling, these themes are a little abstract to translate into the form of, say, a […]

Bring on the Burgundy!

November 18, 2014 by AllFreeCrochetAfghanPatterns Leave a Comment

Autumn ushers in rich variations of red, orange, yellow, and purple. Violets, burnt orange, marigold, and burgundy begin popping along the trees, bushes, and decor. I’m a huge fan of color, but fall colors tend to be my favorite. To me they’re like dark chocolate, rich and delightful. While I tend to lean towards the […]

Colorful Hues to Cure Your Winter Blues

November 7, 2014 by AllFreeCrochetAfghanPatterns Leave a Comment

The winter ushers in a sea of white and blue (and brown; all that bare bark and mud-stained snow). Now, I’m a fan of winter. The peacefulness of a fresh coat of snow, the frost creating exquisite mosaics on your windows, the fun activities, the list goes on and on. The only thing that bothers […]

July 6, 2014 by AllFreeCrochetAfghanPatterns Leave a Comment

Summer is loud. Kids are running amok, fireworks are going off, music festivals are booming, and people are out. The color palette of summer tends to be quite loud, too, with fiery reds and oranges being the obvious choices. But even the loudest colors, like the deliciously bold shades of turquoise and fuchsia, can be […]

Can you believe it’s almost May? Spring is just zipping by and Summer will be here before we know it. I, for one, am very excited.

Video Tutorial: Changing Colors in Knitting

June 30, 2012 by AllFreeKnitting Leave a Comment

When you first started out knitting you probably made a ton of monochrome projects. Red hat, white socks, blue sweater, you get the picture. While that’s great for a while, you might eventually find yourself craving something a bit more vibrant.  Maybe you are dying to be creative and knit a rainbow shawl or a striped […]
