Trending Summer 2022: Crochet Everything

12 Jun 2022

As we've watched other classic 70's trends resurface over the last couple years, we have been patiently waiting for this one to come back around. Crochet is making it's return just in time for summer fun and festivities. You can catch us (and everyone) jumping on this effortless and timeless trend in summer 2022.

WHY WE LOVE CROCHET

Crochet and knitting are very similar, yet you know the difference when you see them side by side. Crochet uses just one hook to form small knots that tie together an entire piece. These knots are breathable when worn, and give off that effortlessly cool, nostalgic vibe you're looking for. This is perfect for summer festivals because you want to stay (and look) cool, while dressing the part as a wishful Woodstock '69 attendee.

HOW TO STYLE CROCHET

While it's not hard to make crochet look good, we've put together a handy list of ideas to try when styling this summer.

CROCHET DRESSES

Don't afraid to embrace the colorful tendencies of crochet! There's a reason we're drawn to certain pieces, and it's usually because of the color. Find which color speaks to you in a crochet pattern and make it pop by adding matching or coordinating accessories.

CROCHET TOPS

Sweaters and tank tops tend to be how people wear crochet most commonly, and for good reason! By adding crochet to your wardrobe cycle in this way, you can tailor the trend to your own liking. Prefer a simpler 'fit? Pair your crochet top with your favorite denim cutoffs for a go-to look that feels fresh, yet is easily wearable.

Grateful Crochet Tank Top

Prefer to go big or go home? We see you, too! Try pulling inspiration from other classic 70's styles and make it an outfit representative of the decade. Incorporate fringe, pastels, flair pants, or mini skirts and watch it all come together.
