Dear Crocheter, Maybe you’ve read that Taylor Swift fans caused a small earthquake from dancing at a recent concert. You probably know Taylor Swift attended the Super Bowl. You’ve heard tickets for her shows are either hard to get or expensive. Even if you don’t listen to Taylor Swift, you know how much of an impact she has on pop culture. And now her influence is bringing excited new fans to the craft of crochet. Taylor Swift may or may not crochet in her spare time. What we do know is that her crocheted minidress has inspired a new wave of fans to pick up yarn in an attempt to create their own version of this classy look. Even if only a small percentage of fans continue exploring the art of crochet, we’ll consider that a win! Crochet is practical and crafty. It’s an artform that you can cuddle up with or wear to impress friends at a cocktail party. It’s a skill that can save you money on clothing, home decor, and gifts. Plus, it’s just fun! More people learning to crochet is something we’re excited about. We’re also excited to look back at our 10 years (WOW!) of publishing I Like Crochet. We’ve met so many wonderful crafters and designers in that time, and are honored that so many have shared their designs, ideas, tips, and tricks with us and our great community. As part of our 10 year anniversary celebration, you’ll find 10 patterns in this issue that we’ve pulled from the archives. It wasn’t easy to select just 10 patterns; there are so, so many we love. Ultimately, we decided on patterns that reflect a range of creativity and interests. These patterns include unique accents, classic techniques, specific design elements, and an array of applications. Along with all this excitement, we have 14 new, summer-inspired designs in this issue. Find bright pillows for bringing summer vibes into your home, fun totes and bags to accent a trip to the beach or the park, and an array of wraps and tops, whether you like lacey and chic, or you’re looking for something to keep from freezing in the office AC. Then don’t miss the list! Get inspired, learn new techniques, and explore the art of crochet with our selection of Summer 2024’s most exciting crochet books.

This cardigan breaks away from conventional design and captures the spunkiness of a graphic tee or sweatshirt. The chunky embroidery accents are artful, and empowers crocheters to take the reins and make it their own. There’s so much room here to change the color palette, add more crafty elements, and truly make it unique. [New Issue] Carmen Heffernan is known for her gorgeous color combinations and using time-honored techniques to create fun, fashion-forward designs. Floral crochet has been popular for decades, and this Adoring Florals Scarf is one reason why. It’s the perfect combination of classic and contemporary. You’ll find this intermediate-level pattern alongside other unique pieces in Celebrating a Decade of Creativity: I Like Crochet’s 10th Birthday. [New Issue] If you’re looking for a fun weekend project, the Fringe Fever Poncho is for you. This new Sarah Lewis design features bulky, 100% wool yarn, giving the poncho a soft, tactile feel that you’ll reach for on those cool, late-summer evenings. It’s stylish, comfy, and features straightforward stitches perfect for beginners. [Crochet Patterns Galore! Patterns for Every Occasion, Only $10 per Year!
