My new design, the Autumn Bloom Sweater uses a simple floral embroidery pattern to customise the sweater. This is a great way to show your personal style, and there are so many options. Will you make the embroidery multicoloured? Gradient? Will you embroider the whole sweater? Only the sleeves? I can’t wait to see what you create!

I love combining crafts and have wanted to try embroidery on crochet for a while. I was thrilled when the Crochet Foundry also loved this idea, and am honoured that my design is featured in their November Magazine! Check out my design and the other fabulous 7 designs here. The magazine is open to members now, but will be open to the public next Friday, so mark your calendars!

This helpful, step by step tutorial shows you exactly how to create this gorgeous stitch effortlessly! Don’t have experience with sewing and embroidery? Don’t worry because this tutorial is super simple; perfect for beginners. The video is linked below, or you can watch it on youtube.

The yarn I used in this video is Premier Yarns Rustic, a beginner friendly, affordable chunky acrylic yarn, in the colours Dark Cloud and Stream.

The hook I used to crochet this sweater is the Olivewood 8mm Alpha Series from Furls Crochet.
