Celtic Vibes Summer Cardigan (Free Crochet Pattern)

by - May 19, 2019

Hello fellow crocheters,

Summer is coming!  I don't know about you, but here in the Pacific Northwest, we've been having a pretty long winter season this year.  There has been an unusually high amount of snow for the area that I live in, resulting in a delayed Spring.  Check out my snowy winter post if you'd like to see a couple of the beautiful photos I've taken of just my community and backyard, transformed into a stunning white wonderland!  There's also a short video of me making a reverse snow angel, and well...as a disclaimer, that one isn't very graceful.

Anyhow, moving on! Summer is coming!! 🌞🌸🌻🌷🌼🌺

Yay for sunshine, warm weather, and a gajillion particles of pollen and cotton spores flying around with the warm breeze! 😂

If you've been following my designs, you might recall the Beach Breeze Kimono Top (Free Crochet Pattern) that I recently released.  When I designed this short-sleeved cardigan, it was meant to be a beach cover-up.

Well, I'm pretty happy to say that its look is pretty versatile, and you can wear it with a belt for a refreshingly different look!  Here I am wearing one of my favorite, wide waistband belts. 

I just love brown shades for my accessories!
I think the tan looks beautiful paired with a gold buckle.

I bought this belt online quite some time ago, and when searching for it again, I wasn't able to find the exact product.  However, I did come across some similar stretchy waistband belts that have clasps in the front.  Take a look around and you might find something you like!


And uhh.... here's a truckload of more selfies that I took... 😅


In all seriousness though, this short-sleeved cardigan really is one of my summer favorites now!  It's light, airy, and soooo soft with Lion Brand's Shawl in a Ball® Yarn.  I also love that it pairs easily with so many different outfits, including maxi dresses (which I just love to wear for comfort)!

Or, you can save this pretty crochet later by...
Saving it to your Ravelry queue!


Pinning it on Pinterest! 
 

Oh, and... I just had to take another selfie with my little Pineapple Pouch (Free Pattern).  I think it's too cute!! 🍍



Thanks for reading, and happy crafting!!

Stay tuned for more summer-themed patterns coming up!

Much love,
