The weather outside can get pretty frightful this time of year, and there’s nothing delightful about getting caught in the cold with only your fall wardrobe to keep you warm! It’s time to really start thinking about incorporating some bulky yarns and cozy accessories into your clothing collection—after all, there’s no need to buy all new winter clothes when you can make your own (or upgrade the ones you already have!). This also happens to be the time of year when staying inside with my yarn collection seems like the best idea—hm, sounds pretty convenient to me…

I’ve gathered together our toastiest full patterns from right here on the blog so that you can get started on some cold-weather projects. These are free, easy crochet patterns as well as knitting patterns, so you don’t have to pay a dime to get a whole new look! From free crochet scarf patterns to knit and crochet shawl patterns, you’re guaranteed to find what you need to keep warm this winter. Let it snow!
