Lovely pattern. The sample I made is soft and pliable. I needed to pay attention to the pattern, but that is what makes it a little different and pretty.

Just finished this cardigan…I’m so pleased! It turned out exactly as described. It even measured to match the pattern. I used Coboo yarn and it looks and feels great. I blocked my pieces before joining as advised and it has nice stitch definition.

Simple crochet patterns for busy millenials

Crochet All Day!

Hi, I'm Alex. I design simple, straightforward crochet patterns for busy millenials. I founded my blog, (YouShouldCraft.com) in 2015. Since then, it's evolved to feature meditative crochet patterns that can be completed in Zoom meetings, on train commutes, or while bingeing Grey's Anatomy.

You won't find intense colorwork, complicated stitches, or multi-piece amigurumi, but you will find wearables and home items that feature standard stitches in beautiful, easy-to-remember patterns. Our day jobs are stressful enough -- why do our hobbies need to be complicated too?

The You Should Craft Etsy shop features ad-free, printable PDF versions of readers' favorite crochet patterns, and sometimes crochet swag. If you're crafty and you know it, take a look around!
