Four Spring Projects in the May Crochet! Magazine

May16

Crochet! Magazine has another issue headed to the news stands any day now, so if you like any of these projects, pick up this issue before they’re hauled off to wherever old magazine go.

(I always wondered what happened to old issues at big bookstores. Anyone who works for Barnes and Noble or Borders want to enlighten us?)

Crochet Magazine - Lavender Lace Vest
This vest sizes up to 2X (49 1/2″ finished measurement) and is for the “experienced” skill level. I think it would be a flattering addition to any wardrobe.

Crochet Magazine - Pretty in Pink Bolero
The bolero has a finished measurement of 50 3/4″ bust and is also advanced. I think it’s cute, but it seems like a chunky piece. I’m having a hard time imagining it on myself and so probably won’t give it another thought.

Crochet Magazine - Simply Spring Top
This short sleeved fitted top seems fun to make and fun to wear. Finished largest bust size is 50 1/2″.

Crochet Magazine - Weekender Pullover
The men get something for a change! This one goes up to 2X. I like the colors and the strips, but I think I would rather see it knitted.

That’s all from the May issue. Can’t wait to get the next one!

    You have no idea how tempted I am to go dumpster diving now…

    Could someone please send me the pattern for the Weekender Pullover. It was in the May 2007 issue of Crochet! I have looked everywhere for a man’s sweater pattern.
    Thank you, Katie Vielleux
