Crochet projects make amazing handmade gifts! I can’t get enough of them, so I thought I would share some of my favorites free crochet patterns along with some that I would love to work on soon.
Simple crochet projects are perfect for me because my skill level is pretty basic and I like to finish projects fast. I have a short attention span, for sure.
These patterns are all free and you don’t have to join a club or website for access…I hate that!
Give me some pretty yarn and a couple hours and I’ll make you something wonderful!
