When it comes to designs, I truly do enjoy hosting guest designers and their designs on the Stitch & Hustle blog. Each designer brings something unique and interesting, and adds a touch of delight to the blog. That’s why I’ve put together a round up of 8 Favorite Guest Designers Free Crochet Patterns. 

Having guest designers on the blog is a wonderful experience. When I reach out to designers, it’s not only for a pattern design. No, relationships are developed. I’m interested in getting to know the designer, who they are, how they started designing, and why crochet. This is one of my favorite parts of collaborating with guest designers. 

This round up features 8 gorgeous crochet designs from guest designers who are either just crocheters, or both crocheters and knitters. When it comes to the designs the guest designer wants to make, we either work together, or they have full autonomy on what to design. It’s always a delight to see what they will come up with. 

It truly is a magnificent honor hosting amazing and talented designers on the blog, as they willingly share their designs on the blog. The designs run the gamut from tops that are perfect for the spring and summer season, to home decor, scarves and hats that are just right for the cooler seasons. Which one of these designs will be your favorite? 

I love the Once Upon a Fade designed by Alex of With Alex. Its open and airy stitches are fabulous for those transitional seasons where you just need a wonderful shawl to keep you going. 

The Aplomb Peplum Top by Natalie of Detroit Knots is just right for the summer season. Pair this fantastic top with cute jeans, a skirt, or shorts, and you’ll have a stylish outfit. 

If you love geometric designs that pop and catch the eye then this On the Spot Blanket by Morine of Morine’s Shop is for you. Perfect as a throw, a baby’s room, or wherever you need a blanket to keep warm. 

Use a self striping yarn, speckled yarn, or more than one color to make this gorgeous Pipirit top by Elisabeth of Desamour Designs. 

This Tweed Toque by Rachel of Evelyn + Peter Crochet is perfect for the entire family. Make one in every size and any color and you’ll have that favorite grab and go hat that the whole family will love. 

This Oats & Honey hat by Nicole of Naturally Nora Crochet is made using the classic moss stitch. It’s visually striking and perfect for any beginner to make. 

You’ll love the chevron like design on this gorgeous My Favorite Jeans Top by Natalie of Detroit Knots. It’s another gorgeous top that can be paired with jeans and cute flats. 

The Skyline Scarf by Miss Katie of The Queen Stitch is such a fun and unique looking scarf! Made to resemble any city’s majestic skyscrapers, this scarf is perfect for those cold days while strolling the city streets.
