12 Days of Christmas: Designer Roundup

December 4, 2021

For Day 4 in my 12 Days of Christmas, I’m stepping outside of the Yarn + Chai walls for a bit!

I spent some time this morning exploring the blogs of several designers that I admire, and it was so fun. As a designer myself, creating new patterns is my full time job and I very, very rarely get the chance to make something that someone else designed. There is so much beauty and creativity out there! And there’s more than enough room for all of it.

So with that said, for Day 4 I want to introduce you to some other blogs that I love, and share my favorite pattern from their collections. If you’ve been looking for modern patterns for a while, you’ll probably recognize these designers or their work, but if you’re new to the craft, you definitely don’t want to miss out on them! If you love my patterns, I think you’ll love theirs, too. Be sure to take a look around their blogs… you might find a new designer to add to your favorites list.


The Snowbound Pullover
by Make & Do Crew

You’ll find no shortage of beautiful wearables on Jess’ blog! This one caught my attention because it’s crocheted top-down, yoke style. I have yet to try that method myself!


Fleece Teddy + Bunny by All About Ami

This adorable pair of furry friends stood out right away because of the simple, timeless look they have. So precious. And you’re sure to love all of the gorgeous photography on Stephanie’s blog!


Sherpa Coat by Mama In A Stitch

A sherpa coat? Yes please! Jessica has a ton of cute wearables on her blog, and if you’re a knitter (even a beginning knitter!) there are plenty of patterns for your needles, too!


Braided Beanie by Cute As A Button Crochet

Using different textures in a project and keeping it modern is a delicate balance, and Esther does it really well. I love this beanie pattern and I spy some SC in FLO, a stitch I’m loving myself right now!


Snowy Mountains Baby Blanket by Daisy Farm Crafts

Tiffany and Hannah are the mother-daughter duo behind Daisy Farm Crafts and the huge library of blanket patterns it has! I’m absolutely in love with the design and colors in the Snowy Mountains Baby Blanket.


Which of these designers were you already a fan of? Did you discover anyone new, or find a gorgeous pattern to add to your list? I’d love to know!

    I’m also a fan of Daisy Farm Crafts and the Make and Do Crew. I’ve made some great shoes on flip flop soles from the M&DC. Their stuff is great, Love Daisy Farm Crafts for their great blankets and border patterns.

    Hi, Rebecca!
    I want to tell you a heartfelt thank you for the Twelve Days of Christmas gift! Each day, I’ve sat down to take a few minutes for myself to enjoy your messages! I am using the Christmas gift list PDF to keep track of gift-giving, plan to make the ear warmers and chai (as gifts), and now you’ve sent some wonderful pattern resources! I have made a number of scarves from your patterns for my daughter, granddaughters, my mother, and even myself. We have loved them all! Thank you for sharing your beautiful talent with all of us and for teaching us how to be successful crocheters! Blessings to you and your family as we celebrate the birth of Christ!! Linda Wilkin

    My first attempt at a plaid crochet blanket was with Daisy Farm and I loved it! They have so many blanket patterns and you can mix and match them with the different edgings they have!! Definitely a great resource!!
