🌟New Crochet Pattern Release: Marlowe Cardigan 🌟
now free on the blog! A lightweight crochet cardigan pattern with one-piece construction and no shaping for easy summer layering
Hello 👋
I’m back with news that my Marlowe cardigan is now free to view on my blog 🎉
Marlowe is a lightweight crochet cardigan pattern that I designed for easy summer layering.
Marlowe Summer Cardigan
Worked in one piece with no shaping, the combination of filet squares and open treble mesh creates a breathable fabric that’s comfortable to wear on warmer days while still giving a little extra coverage.
With short sleeves, a relaxed fit, and simple repeating stitches, it’s a wonderfully relaxing project. I hope you like this one! ☀️🧶💙
To celebrate, I’m running a promotion via Ravelry (free PDF).
How the Free PDF Download Works
The promotion for my Marlowe cardigan is running from today for the first 75 downloads. Once the 75 patterns have been claimed, the code will no longer work.
You’ll need to visit the pattern on my blog (link below) and once on the pattern, click on the image that says ‘Free Ravelry Download Click here to Redeem the Code.’ You’ll be taken to ‘Redeem a Coupon Code’ on Ravelry. Click ‘use this coupon’ to be taken to the shopping basket on Ravelry. Click ‘check out now’ and the pattern will be in your library. Don’t check out unless it is showing zero!

All Summer Blog Hop
Also focusing on the warmer weather is the All Summer blog hop starting next month.
This hop is hosted by Sandra Stitches and is running from 1st – 15th June 2026.
Each day a pattern will be released with either a direct download of the free PDF or a coupon code.
In this hop there’s a mixture of patterns! Amigurumi, wearables, accessories. I think you’ll like this one.
I’m taking part 😊 My day is 13th June.
I’ll be in touch when I have more information (the event page link) and I’ll share a reminder when it’s my day.
🧶 Coming soon on the blog
I’ll be back 29th May when my Lily Top publishes (currently only available in my Etsy shop)
June
13th June – It’s my day on the All Summer blog hop. It’s a new pattern you haven’t seen before.
26th June - summer top (same stitch pattern as the Marlowe cardigan above but instead of a solid colour, lots of colours 😊)
Currently Working On …
Poncho – need to create the neckline
Short Sleeve Cardigan – need to sew seams
Granny square shrug/cocoon – need to sew the 6 dc and mesh squares together and seam
Scarf (dc2tog mesh) – need to sew in ends
That’s the summer makes for this year 😊

Clover Update:
Well, zoomies are few and far between now – hurrah! He’s still exploring the environment with his mouth but not as much and hardly any dandelion’s now (he tried them when they went to seed and decided he didn’t like the texture hahaha). He loves going out in the rain (although the same can’t be said for his humans 😊) and baths and even goes into the river without any prompts. This little pup is growing up (he’s 6 ½ months now).
We’re working on recall (any tips?) and although let him off the lead in the dog park, not confident enough to trust that he wouldn’t get distracted and go off anywhere else. We have a common on our doorstep but it’s split in two by quite a busy road …
Don’t forget to let me know if there are any patterns you’d love to work on in 2026 and if there are any roundups of patterns you’d be interested in.
Happy crocheting
