Block by Anne-Michelle Phelan. Starting from the bottom this crochet top features an all over block stitch. This block stitch gives the top a mesh like structure, perfect for layering in the warmer months. A ridge detail is used on the hem edges and around the neck where a small little opening is finished with buttons. Crocheted in a DK cotton I would choose Pickles Økologisk Bomull, both for its softness and texture.

Blossom by Jessica Tsung. I’m a big fan of granny squares being incorporated in stylish ways in garments. This button up vest starts with the two strips of flower themed squares. When the flower strips are finished the vest is worked side to side from these strips. The two fronts, sides and the centre back are added to the flower strips and then finished by seaming together at the centre back. Crocheted with a fine hook and lace weight yarn it has to be Fyberspates Gleem Lace.

Cabanarama by Julia Madill. The flower motifs in this top are worked first and joined together as you go. This creates an open, relaxed and boxy top. The relaxed fit is heightened by the oversized collar and rib details. The front band is added at the end and splits for the collar. Crocheted in a 4ply I think the poppy colours of Socks Yeah would work well.

Dune Sand by Alicia Arroyo Blanco. Starting from the top and continuing in a crochet spiral this hat grows out with a wide brim. This is worked in a raffia yarn and as we haven’t got any at the moment I would experiment with cotton instead. You will get something with a slightly different texture but why not try Pickles Økologisk Bomull.

Flip the Script by Ana-Maria. This top with its v neck on both the back and front has a relaxed oversized fit. It is completely reversible, highlighting either side of this textural two colour stitch. Worked flat in pieces that are then seamed together. Using a 4ply yarn I think the softness and colour range of Vivacious 4ply would be great but maybe for a bit of a spring feel I would choose Vivacious 4ply Botanical.

Flora by Sarianna Lehtonen. Starting at the bottom of this bag two discs are worked that are layered to give weight and structure to the base. Using tapestry crochet the walls of the bag are created by working up from the base. Finally a drawstring casing is worked at the top to hide the cord. Crocheted in a sport weight cotton. I think something like the nettle blend Allo Baby would be a fun choice.

Gabriela by Carmen Gomez. This button up waistcoat style vest is worked in three separate panels. After seaming the pieces a picot edge is added around the hem, button band and armholes. Crocheted in a cotton I would try Quince and Co Whimbrel.

Hygge Hands by Susan Chin. These cosy fingerless gloves play on the classically recognisable crochet stitch. Reminiscent of granny square blankets with clusters of stitches. Starting at the cuff they are worked in the round up to the thumb and then continue flat to allow for the thumb opening. They are then re joined in the round to continue up to the fingers. Combine a woolly 4ply with a fluffy lace. Hillesvåg Sølje and Fyberspates Cumulus would be a good choice.

Hygge Hugs by Susan Chin. The gloves have a matching shawl and in fact the gloves are made from the shawl leftovers so you ca have a matching set. Using the same stitches as the gloves you start at the longest edge and work to the point. Again I would choose a warm combo of Hillesvåg Sølje and Fyberspates Cumulus.

Lemon Twist by Veronica Lönnqvist. How cute is this lemon bag. It has to be the perfect summer accessory. It’s made by crocheting four different pieces in a continual spiral. Two outer lemon shapes and two inner lining pieces. These are sewn and crocheted together. A zip is added as well as a little leaf zip pull and a crochet strap. It is created by holding two thinner strands together but I think one strand of the thicker Quince and Co Whimbrel especially because of the colour Limoncello.

Mirdza by Linda Skuja. I really like when crochet square join and then make there own repeating patterns. The diamonds are created by repeating the same stitch motif in this top down summer top. The open crochet stitch makes something light and airy perfect for warmer weather. Crocheted in a 4ply I think I might have to go with Vivacious Botanical 4ply again for that ice cream colour palette.

Roseraie by Eun Mi Ahn. This light and airy top is crocheted entirely from a fluffy lace weight yarn. Worked in pieces from the bottom up and featuring a selection of stitches. Combining eyelet stripes and a rosebud stitch to create a relaxed spring inspired top. The sleeves are made flat and then sewn to the body before joining the sleeve and side seams. It has to be Fybersaptes Cumulus for this.

Rut by Anna Eklund. This checkerboard inspired bag is made by crocheting a large rectangle that is seamed together at the sides. The colour not in use is carried above the stitch and then hidden by crocheting over it on the next row. Finally a zip is added along with a handle. Crocheted in a jute yarn I think the closest we might have is something like Quince & Co Kestrel, though you may have to slightly adjust your hook size.

Sheila by Rosina North­cott. This lace t-shirt has an open neck, large short sleeves and simple fit for cool summer wear. Crocheted from the bottom up it features a nice button keyhole detail at the back neckline. Crochet in a cool 4ply and just because of the colour Jadeite it has to be Socks Yeah.

Viggby by Anna Erlandsson. This vest top has a simple relaxed shape and fit with a deep gradually shaping v neck. Crocheted using a yarn over slip stitch it is worked from side to side creating a wonderfully textured and squishy fabric. Finally a button band is added. A squishy worsted weight yarn will do this justice like Hey Mama Wolf Skadi.

Viive by Molla Mills. This bag is crocheted as a tube with a seamed bottom. Using the tapestry crochet technique to create this retro graphic motif that runs through the whole project. A smaller inner pocket is crocheted nearer the rim and leather straps are added for the handles. Using a 4ply cotton I’m wondering if the Allo Baby might work for this. The colours are really fun and the nettle blend makes it quite sturdy.

Vincent by Mariia Sordiia. You can’t get more summer ready than this top. Crochet granny squares with sunflower centres are joined together in mesh rows to make this short sleeve cardigan. Finally a short polo shirt style collar is worked on the neck opening. Crocheted in a light yarn. I like the idea of the crisp Pickles Pure Wool held single.
