Lottie Lacy Crochet Sweater
New Pattern Release + Yarn Sale
Summer? What summer! It’s been so chilly in the UK I’ve been overriding the heating … surely it will be at the average temperature consistently for the time of year soon … I still have 3 ‘summer’ crochet patterns to release, definitely will be in time for summer at this rate! What’s it like where you are?
If you missed the free PDF for the Maisie poncho pattern last week, you can still view the whole pattern free on the blog. As always, your feedback was really helpful 😊
I wanted to give you a heads-up that I’m changing who is managing my ads on the blog – probably Thursday afternoon but it could be Friday. It will take a couple of days to settle (if everything goes ok!). In case you didn’t know, having ads display on my blog gives me a bit of leeway so I can offer you free PDF downloads when a new pattern releases. Thank you for continuing to support me ❤
One last thing before this week’s pattern, do you use Facebook? I’m thinking of sharing free crochet patterns (other designers) from the blogging community on Jera’s Jamboree Facebook page. Would this interest you? I would love to support other designers as well as giving you a choice of different patterns.
Lottie Lacy Crochet Sweater
+ promotion on Ravelry
I loved how this lacy sweater turned out and hope you will too. The drape is fabulous!
Lottie is worked in an ascending shell pattern which is an easy 4-row repeat. Crocheted in DROPS Cotton Light DK, construction is two rectangular panels (for the front and back) and minimal shaping on the sleeves. This is an easy project that will look fab worn for all sorts of occasions and throughout the year.
I’ve written the pattern for sizes S through to 5X in US crochet terms (conversion table for UK).

Crochet . com Summer Yarn Sale
*I am an affiliate for crochet . com which means if you click on my link and make a purchase, I receive a small commission*
From 18th June to 29th June, you’ll be able to nab up to 60% off in the crochet . com summer yarn sale. If there’s a yarn you’ve been wanting to try or they stock one of your favourites, now’s the time to see if it’s included in the sale. I’ve purchased yarn before and quality and delivery (to the UK) has been brilliant.
Talking of yarn, the delivery I was expecting last week (James C Brett Shhh), it’s amazing! It will really suit what I had in mind for an autumn/fall cardigan 😊
I’ve also bought more yarn - Boho Spirit. I used this yarn in my Forest Ripple Poncho Pattern and thought the colourway that’s just come (black, grey, dark pink, light pink) will look fab for a ripple sweater.
Thank you for voting for your neckline preference in last week’s newsletter (results below). I’m currently working out the maths for the chunky sweater and can’t wait to get started 😊
