In designing my Wrapped in Diamonds Wrap I was scrolling through Pinterest trying to find some inspiration for a new design. I was scrolling through my Crochet Stitches Board, which can be found here, looking for that perfect stitch. I came across the Argyle Shell Stitch and fell in LOVE!!
My Wrapped in Diamonds Wrap measures 26″ wide x 73″ long. The yarn I used is Lion Brand Coboo Yarn. I used 1000 yards of this beautiful lightweight cotton and bamboo mix. You can make yours any size you like. I wanted it long to be able to wrap around myself.
The Argyle Shell Stitch consists of a 4 row pattern repeat. The pictures below show how the Diamonds take shape after each row is added. Rows 2-5 create the pattern repeats that build the Diamond shapes.
Row 1
Row 2
Row 3
Row 4
Row 5
Rows 2-5
As you can see by the picture below the Argyle Shell Stitch creates the perfect Diamond shapes that come out in the Wrapped in Diamonds Wrap. The picture below also shows the Edging that I created to surround the beautiful Diamond shapes.
You can use the Argyle Shell Stitch yourself and create a beautiful Wrap, Blanket, and so much more! I have a Video Tutorial that has a great example on how to crochet the Argyle Shell Stitch.

The Fairland Sweater Free Crochet Pattern was inspired by one of my crochet pattern testers, Laura. We both fell in love with the Herringbone Half Double Crochet, which is used in this crochet pattern. Laura told me the design I was using for the Rain Drops Mittens would look awesome in a sweater. Therefore the Fairland Sweater was born.

The great thing I found in designing this sweater was the feedback I received from my pattern testers. It led me to look at the design from their point of views. I always encourage my crochet pattern testers to be completely honest with me whether the comments are good or bad. I ask them: “How am I going to grow as a Crochet Designer if no one gives me feedback; asks questions, or comments on a particular part of the design?” Below you will hear from another one of my testers, so be sure to look for it.
So let’s get started on crocheting the Fairland Sweater!

Another one of my crochet pattern tester was interested in sharing her viewpoint about the Fairland Sweater’s sleeves. Below is what she has to say about altering sleeves to YOUR fit:
The construction of this sweater offers a unique opportunity to easily alter the sleeves for a custom fit. Due to the drop shoulders the sleeve opening will fall on a different place on your arm depending on how you choose to have your sweater fit (form fitting, or loose). I prefer to have my sweaters more form fitting. I made the medium sweater and the sleeve openings felt a little tight for me because they fell very close to my shoulder. All I had to do was go up one size on the sleeve portion and then they fit perfectly! The transverse is also true. If you like a very loose fit to your sweater you may want to go down a size on your sleeves.
Step 1: From the Top of the Sweater measure 6.5” (7” 7.5” 8” 8.5” 9”) and place Stitch Marker in Stitch on each panel. Leave Stitch Marker in place as a guide to where you will place your first and last stitch for your Sleeves.
Optional: Use the Halfway count from Table above or count 18 (20, 22, 24, 26, 28) from the Top of sweater and place Stitch Marker in Stitch on each side. You will have a total of 36 (40, 44, 48, 52, 56) st for your armhole.
Step 2: Sew Panels together, using the Mattress Stitch, from the bottom using your Stitch Marker, at the Armhole, as a guide for when to stop.
Sleeve – Attaching on the Right Side of the Sweater
R1: Slip Stitch into 1st stitch of Sleeve opening (using your Stitch Marker). Ch 2, hbdc in the same st, and each stitch around. 36 (40, 44, 48, 52, 56) ss in 1st st to join.
R2: Ch 2, turn and hbdc in each st around. Ss in 1st st to join. 36 (40, 44, 48, 52, 56) st
R3: Ch 2, turn and hbdc in each st around. Ss in 1st st to join. 36 (40, 44, 48, 52, 56)

This post contains my Amy Pullover FREE Crochet Pattern. I designed the pullover back in November of 2018. It took me a while to get it just right and now I have and I get to share it with You! I couldn’t have done it without my pattern testers. Thank you Lindsay Silvestrini, Sally Hayes, Sherry Dickenson, Jennifer Secord and Tara Smith.
With the colder months already here, this would be a GREAT project to do while you are cooped up in the house. You can binge watch Netflix or Hulu while crocheting the Amy Pullover.

As a Scoliosis Survivor I have a lot of free time on my hands. Because I suffer with Chronic Pain I sit or recline on the couch crocheting and watching Netflix. Since I watch a lot of TV I got the idea for the Amy Pullover from Season 7 of American Horror Story. Weird right? lol
Sarah Paulson
Sarah Paulson wore roomy, comfy and warm looking tops a lot in Season 7, like the image above. Yes, you may find this silly or funny, but I loved the way they look SO much so I designed a crochet pattern around her wardrobe. The images below depict my version of her tops. I hope you find it roomy, warm and comfy as much as I do!
Sara Paulson also reminds me of my sister, Amy. Amy was in town while I was designing the Pullover. She isn’t into crochet and she actually didn’t like the color of the top. lol My sister wears the latest fashion and I can see her in this roomy, warm, and comfy Pullover. That is another reason I named the pullover after my sister, Amy. I have been waiting to share this post because Amy’s birthday is in December. I wanted to give her a gift and to let her know how much her support means to me. Thank you and Happy Birthday Amy.
I hope you enjoy my Amy Pullover. The Amy Pullover Free Crochet pattern has 6 sizes to choose from. I hope you share your version of the Amy Pullover with me. You can post your version at any of my social media sites listed below the pattern. I’d love to hear from you, so be sure to comment here at my website. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me at jo@joscraftyhook.com.
If you would like to purchase the PDF pattern you can do so from my Esty Shop here or from my Ravelry Store here. This pattern is a long one, so if you’d like a pdf version, please stop by my Etsy Shop or Ravelry Store.

I designed the Ombre Waves Tank Top around this time last year, but I only offered it in 1 size. One of my crochet pattern testers said she would LOVE to do the tank top, but I didn’t offer a Small. I heard the same thing about sizes from others, so I decided to add 5 more sizes to the pattern. So now YOU can take advantage of these changes as well!
When you are finished with YOUR version of the Ombre Waves Tank Top I would LOVE, LOVE, LOVE to see it! You can stop by my Facebook Group Jo’s Crafty Hook Designs here!

Straps:
Make 4 – 2 on each side
Placing of Stitch Markers: With (RS) facing you, fold the shirt in ½, making sure the Waves line up correctly and count over 2 Waves from the Left and 2 Waves from the Right. Find the 3 dc group in the center of the wave and count over 1 stitch and put your stitch marker in that place. This will be where you start the strap.
Notes:
You will follow Placing of Stitch Markers 4 times. 2 Straps on the Front of the Tank and 2 Straps on the Back of the Tank. If the Straps are not long enough for your size, feel free to add as many Rows as you need.
Once you have completed attaching the Straps, using your Tapestry Needle sew the straps together using the Back Stitch or the Invisible Stitch.
Use your Tapestry Needle to weave in loose ends and trim off.
