Crochet Garments

While the projects are suitable for beginners, the use of different stitches provides plenty to interest intermediate and advanced crocheters.

Showcasing Carrie’s love of texture, the stitch patterns are the stars of the garments in this collection. Stitches such as waffle, herringbone, bobbles, puff and rib are used to create simple yet stylish garments. Favourite makes include the long-length Fawnmore Ribbed Cardigan; the Kingstown Sweater Vest, which combines double and treble stitches in lemon peel stitch to create a pebble-like effect; the Fanone Sweater Scarf, a scarf with sleeves that doubles as a jumper; and the ultra cosy Connemara Pocket Shawl.
