With the I Like Crochet Gold Club, get your collection of our most popular projects! Dear Crafty Crocheter, 2020 was certainly one for the books. And though we’d be happy to skip most of the chapters in those books, there were still plenty of bright spots. Sourdough bread made a comeback. We’ve learned to appreciate teachers more than ever. We picked up new hobbies and we improved our crafting skills. Our favorite, of course, is crochet. And it’s been exciting for us to have so many people discovering and rediscovering this artistic endeavor. These “Best of” collections are always fun to put together, and this one was especially interesting. We sifted through your comments, looked to see what patterns were most popular, and came up with a list that includes everything from weekend projects to easy, beginner patterns to more challenging designs. The 25 designs you’ll find in [Best of 2020 Crochet Patterns]( are the most popular patterns we’ve featured this year. You can get seriously comfy with a crochet pillow or head out in whimsical style with a mixed-motif scarf. You’ll find projects to help you decorate your home, dress your favorite toddler, add sophistication to your outfit, and keep yourself cozy. Whether you’re new to crochet or you have a home full of crochet projects you’ve made over the years, we’re happy to have you here. We hope you enjoy the [Best of 2020 Crochet Patterns]( from I Like Crochet. Each one of the patterns in I Like Crochet includes: - Complete stitch instructions - List of materials, notions, and hook size - Pattern and special stitch notes - Finishing instruction - Full color, detailed photographs of each pattern The [Guava Beginner Beanie]( is an easy crocheted hat geared toward beginners. The bottom edge is a double ribbing double crochet and the body is worked in single crochet and chains. Although the color gives this hat a light, springtime look, the acrylic and wool yarn is guaranteed to help you stay warm when the temperature drops. For those sunny winter days when you want to feel the breeze, but still need a little warmth, the [Fiona Chenille Headband]( is the answer. This reversible one-piece design is great for gifting and the luxurious plush texture is sure to make it a favorite. And did we mention it’s super easy to crochet? The [Sunset Breeze Crescent Lace Shawl]( from designer Cheryl Chow, is one of our biggest hits this year. This delicate scarf is worked back and forth from one tip to the other with decreases and increases at the ends to create its defining crescent shape. The lacy border is worked along the entire length once the main body of the scarf is complete. This 100% wool pattern is absolutely stunning. And it goes just as well with a summer dress as it does with jeans and a sweater. You really want to make sure this shawl is on your list. We’re also happy that the [Blueberry Basketweave Scarf]( made it into the [Best of 2020 Crochet Patterns]( collection. It’s been a favorite around here since we first saw the pattern. The brilliant turquoise blue makes this extra-wide scarf especially eye-catching. It’s crocheted in worsted weight yarn with a simple repeating pattern, so it’s easy to remember. I would say it makes a great gift, but I think you’ll have a hard time giving this one away. The [Best of 2020 Crochet Patterns]( collection is a wonderful way to end this year and start next year. Each one of these designs is a winner on its own, but together? This is a powerhouse of the most amazing new designs from 2020. This collection has something for everyone. From the [Classic Cables Toddler Cardigan]( (Soooo cute!) to the [Morning Fog Pocket Scarf]( (pockets!!) you’ll find something warm and cozy for this winter.
