Michaels Collaboration
I was so excited to collaborate on a new crochet pattern with Michaels. Locally Michaels is our main craft store, and I’ve been purchasing yarn at their stores for years. I’ve always been a big fan of Loops & Threads. (cdn site)
Cozy Wool is one of my favourite bulky yarns. Loops & Threads Cozy Wool is perfect for warm cozy hats, blankets and scarves. The yarn makes for a soft, cozy, warm, quick stocking crochet pattern.
Bulky & Quick Puff Stitch Stockings
I’ve done a lot of projects in the crochet puff stitch, and I knew it would make a great textured Christmas stocking pattern. This pattern was designed to be a quick and easy crochet pattern. You can work up a couple at night as a last-minute Christmas crochet project.
I have also made the Mini Puff Stitch stockings in the same crochet stitch for the MJ’s Merry Advent Calander. I would recommend checking them out if you haven’t already.
