The Yarn


The yarn base for this yarn is called Airy & is a chained yarn, that makes anything you crochet with it light while still offering density.

What I’m most excited about is the fact that the yarn used is my own hand dyed yarn & it’s my first pattern using Joy of Motion Yarn.

The variegated yarn colors pictured is “Brevann” & “Dypt Hav”. Both names refers to sea & water, where “Brevann” means glacial water & “Dypt Hav” means deep sea!

THE PERFECT SPRING & SUMMER CROCHET PROJECT


The crochet Shine Spring Cowl is made with spring & summer in mind. It’s not your typical winter cowl.

What’s so great about it is the lace stitch pattern, which makes it perfect for warm weather. Next, it’s perfect when your shoulders are cold, just pull it down a little to cover them.

How Long Does It Take To Crochet That?


How long it takes to crochet something varies depending on your skill & how fast you crochet. But that isn’t a helpful answer is it?

Well, I’ve developed a yarn calculator to help you get the answer to this question.

It will help you calculate exactly how much time you’ll spend crocheting a project.

All you need to know is how much yarn you will use on the project in either meters, yards or skeins. Then crochet your test square & time it.

Calculate how long it takes to crochet that.
