One trend that seems to be carrying over into the fall and holiday season are tribal patterns. Geometric and bold designs that are inspired by Native American and ancient cultures have been seen in clothing and home decor this year. We’re all looking for new and fun crochet and knit designs, am I right?
This trend is here to stay and it’s quite popular with young adults and kids. Start thinking Christmas presents! It’s easy to crochet triangles and arrange them into a tribal pattern and you can even knit your own tribal inspired poncho. So pick up your hooks and needles and jump on the tribal print bandwagon with these free, easy crochet patterns (and some knitting patterns in the mix, too!)
