I found this FREE Marshmallow Bunny pattern and I had to share it with you for today’s FREE crochet pattern! I think these bunnies are adorable and I LOVE the colors that are used!
Marshmallow Bunnies
The FREE pattern is available on Ravelry here. The designer has made many bunnies and joined them together to make a scarf. Here’s the scarf for you to see:
Marshmallow Bunnies Scarf
You could make this bunny scarf, sew these bunnies onto a baby blanket, baby hat, baby bib, etc or use them any way you choose! They measure 6 1/2″ long x 3″ wide, as shown. The bunnies are made with worsted weight yarn and an E hook (I think the designer used a smaller hook than usual to make them very solid). If you want smaller marshmallow bunnies, consider using size 10 crochet thread and a steel hook.
I hope you enjoy this FREE Easter pattern. Easter is just under 3 weeks away, so it’s time to get hopping (pun intended)!
I’m thrilled to take part in the 3rd Annual Designer Blog Tour that Amy and Donna at Crochetville have put together. If you haven’t been keeping up with the blog tour that’s going on all of this month, you can read all about it and visit the many other designers’ blogs here.
One of the things we do for National Crochet Month is have a special charity that we’re supporting. This year the charity is Halos of Hope, which provides handmade hats to cancer centers across America. You can read all about them and find out how you can join in on their mission here.
Another thing that Amy and Donna at Crochetville are doing during March (National Crochet Month) is daily giveaways. If you haven’t checked those out and entered to win, you can find out all about them here.
All of the designers who are taking part for the whole month of March (National Crochet Month) are members of CGOA (the Crochet Guild of America). I’ve been a CGOA member for around 12 years now! Wow! Time really flies! To find out more about CGOA, check out their website here. I’m honored to have been the secretary on the CGOA Board of Directors since June, 2012, as well as co-chair of the CGOA Masters program. I’ll blog more about the CGOA Masters program on my CGOA Now blog post on March 27, as part of this Designer Blog Tour. So if you’d like some information about the Masters program, check out that blog post on March 27 here. I’m also working with Bobbie Matela from Red Heart/Coats & Clark this year to put together the CGOA Design Competition at the yearly conference in San Diego, CA this July! If you live anywhere near the west coast, this is your opportunity to attend an event that’s dedicated solely to the advancement of crochet!
If you’ve never been to the CGOA Conference (aka: the Knit and Crochet Show), you don’t know what you’re missing! It’s so much fun! You can read all about it here. TKGA (The Knitting Guild Association) is the knitting part of this conference. There will be lots of knit and crochet classes to take, a show floor with lots of knit and crochet vendors (with yarns, hooks, needles, patterns, etc to buy), fun events, a Masters Day for both TKGA and CGOA and new fiber friends to make! I love attending the conference each year where I either teach classes or take them (I’m taking classes this year). I love to learn more crocheting and knitting, don’t you? The K&C Show’s class schedule was posted last week and registration should open within the next week, I think. If you’re attending the conference, make sure you register early to get the classes you want to take. Once they’re full, you’re out of luck and you may have to take an alternate class instead of your first choice!
I hope you’re enjoying National Crochet Month and getting in lots of crochet time each day! I crochet year-round, so there aren’t too many days that go by without a crochet hook (or knitting needles) in my hands! I’ve been celebrating National Crochet Month by posting a photo and link to a FREE crochet pattern every day this month. Please check out my other blog posts to see the FREE patterns that you’ve missed! I hope you enjoy many of them and will keep watching my blog each day during the rest of March to get links to more FREE crochet patterns.

Sweetheart Bunny
This is the “Sweetheart Bunny” by Stephanie from All About Ami. You can get this FREE pattern on her blog here. This little bunny is perfect for Easter or Valentine’s Day! The pattern includes several step-by-step photos and links to more of her blog posts for additional help in crocheting in the round and more.
I hope you enjoy this adorable FREE crochet pattern!
Here’s today’s FREE crochet pattern to help you get ready for Easter. It’s an Easter Egg Coaster that I think looks fabulous!
Easter Egg Coaster
This coaster is designed by Doni Speigle and the FREE pattern is available on her blog here. The coaster measures 4 1/4″ wide x 5 3/4″ high. It is made with worsted weight cotton yarn and a size G (4.25 mm) crochet hook. I love the details in this coaster. The wider white lines are crocheted in, while the smaller white lines are embroidered on after the crocheting is done. I think these coasters would be both fun and quick to make!
I hope you enjoy this FREE crochet pattern and have a blessed Easter with your family!
With St Patrick’s Day just 4 days away, it’s not too late to make a chapeau/hat to wear so you won’t get pinched by any leprechauns next Tuesday! If you don’t have time to make the whole hat, you can make the 3-leaf clovers in the pattern instead. Here’s today’s FREE crochet pattern: a St Patrick’s Day Chapeau/Hat.
St Patrick’s Day Chapeau/Hat
You can find this FREE pattern on the Red Heart website here. The hat is made with Red Heart Super Saver, along with sizes H (5 mm) and I (5.5 mm) crochet hooks.
I hope you enjoy this FREE crochet pattern! Top o’ the morning to you!
Here’s today’s FREE crochet pattern. It’s a table runner that I designed for Red Heart in 2012. It’s called Star Table Runner and is made with size 3 Aunt Lydia’s Fashion Crochet Thread, along with a size D (3.25 mm) crochet hook.
Star Table Runner
You can download this FREE pattern here. I think it would be great for Easter, as well as for Christmas, or all year long! I love crocheting motifs and I love thread crochet, too! These motifs are joined together at the points as you work them. The pattern includes an assembly diagram, as well as symbol crochet charts.
I hope you enjoy this FREE crochet pattern. You can even crochet one star and use it as a Christmas tree decoration, if you’d like!
If you’ve never tried Wiggly Crochet and you’d like to give it a try with a FREE Wiggly Crochet pattern, today is your day! Here is my May Flowers Hot Pad & Coaster Set from the Red Heart website. It’s today’s FREE crochet pattern of the day, in honor of National Crochet Month!

I hope you enjoy Wiggly Crochet as much as I do! Check back again tomorrow for another FREE crochet pattern.
Today’s FREE crochet pattern is the Sorrel River Sweater/Tunic. I designed this sweater/tunic in 2011 for Caron Yarns. Here it is…
Sorrel River Sweater
I used Naturally Caron Spa yarn (now discontinued) and a size G (4 mm) crochet hook for my sweater/tunic (you may use a different size of crochet hook, depending on the size of the sweater/tunic you’re making, though). You can use any DK weight yarn that you want for this sweater/tunic, as long as you’re able to achieve the listed gauge.
This sweater/tunic is made with motifs, which are joined together while crocheting the last round of each motif, so there’s no seaming required. The square motifs are set on point and are joined at the corners, as well as at the middle of each side. The corner joins create what looks like a mini motif between the larger motifs, but that’s just the 4 corners being joined! I used full motifs, half motifs and quarter motifs in this sweater/tunic. An edging is added around the neck, at the bottom of the sleeves and at the bottom of the sweater/tunic. The pattern includes crochet symbol diagrams and assembly diagrams. If you’re uncertain about how to join the motifs, you can see some additional photos and chart that I added to the Ravelry pattern page here.
I hope you’ll give this sweater/tunic a try. You can find the FREE pattern here.
Today’s FREE crochet pattern is the Keepsake Lace Shawl, a lacy shawl that I designed for the May/June 2010 issue of Crochet Today magazine. This shawl includes a center section of filet crochet with crocheted pineapples on both long edges of the filet center. It’s made with size 3 Aunt Lydia’s Bamboo crochet thread and a size E (3.5 mm) crochet hook. The shawl measures 60″ x 19″. The pattern even includes a symbol crochet chart for those of you (me included) who love working from symbol crochet charts! Without further ado, here is this shawl…
Today’s FREE crochet pattern is another one that I designed many years ago. It was published in the May/June 2009 issue of Crochet Today magazine. I really enjoyed designing this one! It’s called “Romantic Wrap”. Here it is…
Romantic Wrap
This particular wrap was made with Aunt Lydia’s Bamboo Crochet Thread, size 10 and a size 0 (3.25 mm) steel crochet hook, which is the same size as an aluminum size D (3.25 mm) crochet hook. It measures 60″ long x 11.5″ wide. You can find the FREE pattern here.
I LOVE designing and wearing lacy items! I hope you enjoy this FREE crochet wrap pattern.
