Yarn and Color Notes
Spring crochet is defined by its palette. When selecting yarn for these projects, look for soft, cheerful shades that mimic the blooming garden outside. For the floral projects like the My Mother’s Garden Afghan or the Sweet Dahlia Crochet Bag, consider luscious pinks, purples, and sunburst yellows to capture that “pure spring” aesthetic. For the amigurumi characters, such as Blossom the Bunny or Buttercup the Chick, bright whites, soft greys, and vibrant yellows will bring their personalities to life. The Fall in Bloom Bag specifically highlights the use of Malabrigo Rios, a yarn known for its rich, saturated colors that feel like a bouquet you can carry. Don’t be afraid to mix textures; the Crochet Amigurumi Bunny is designed to be worked in squishy chenille yarn for an extra huggable finish, while the Crochet Flower Pot is a brilliant opportunity to use up scrap yarn in any color you have on hand.
