The Snow Glory crochet Wall Hanging is a free pattern below. Made with #6 weight yarn it works up quickly and looks great!
I was thrilled when Allison asked me to host her free Snow Glory Wall Hanging on the blog. It is part of the Giftstravanganza Event hosted by Marie from Underground Crafter during November 2022.
This event is also about the winter holiday gifting and all projects use 3 skeins or less. Each week has a different theme. Allison is the last day of the gifts for the home event.
Named for a cheerful little blue flower that pokes its head through the snow in late winter, the Snow Glory Wall Hanging is designed to bring some joy and hope for warmer weather to your home during the winter. Playful popcorn stitches dance against a neutral textured background, and a simple border and fringe in the same contrast color finishes the piece.
Hi! I’m Allison Bostrom, the designer, creator, and very-much-still-learning photographer/social media manager behind Clair de Lune Fiber Art. I design stimulating crochet and knit patterns for everything from garments and accessories to homewares. My goal in writing patterns is to encourage makers to learn new stitches and construction techniques, or to reconsider the ones they know.
A bit about me personally: I just finished my Masters in International Development and am currently looking for a job.
My dream post would be conducting policy research to improve the way refugees and other migrants are treated.
At the moment I am also juggling a tutoring business, designing, a little babysitting for family, and managing my chronic migraines.
My non-yarn hobbies include cooking, baking, gardening, doing puzzles, and playing piano and guitar.
Before I decided to pursue a career in humanitarian/development work, I was in a PhD program for Astronomy & Astrophysics.
It’s been nice to have my yarny hobbies to fall back on during a pretty hectic time in my life!
Allison may not have a blog (yet!) but there are still plenty of places where you can find her and her stunning patterns!

Reattach CC with a standing sc in any corner. Sc twice more in corner, then sc evenly around entire wall hanging, working 3 sc in each corner. Sl st to first st and FO, or use an invisible join.
Note: Exact stitch count is not important here, just work evenly. I made one sc in each of the stitches on the top and the bottom, and roughly 4 sts for every 5 rows along the side edges. But this is not a rule – I just went by eye and you should too!
I recommend giving your wall hanging a gentle blocking to help even out its edges. You can do this by spraying it with water and laying it flat, or by soaking it in water, gently squeezing (not wringing!) out excess with a towel, and laying it flat. If it is curling or otherwise looks uneven, you can pin it down.
Cut 27 lengths of CC, each measuring 18” long. Position the wall hanging so that the WS is facing you and you will be working along the bottom (foundation) edge. Start in the middle sc of the 3 sc worked into the corner. Working one length of CC at a time, fold the length of yarn in half, insert hook into the stitch, and pull the loop of CC through. Yarn over using both tails of the length of CC and pull through. Tighten gently. Repeat across the bottom edge of the wall hanging, working in each stitch. It should be easy to find these stitches since you just worked the border.
Weave in ends and trim fringe if necessary to ensure it is even.
You may mount your wall hanging on a dowel, stick, or rod (or any other way you come up with!). To do this, cut a very long piece of CC yarn. I recommend using the following “formula” to estimate how much yarn you will need:
width of dowel/stick/rod x 115
Use this length to stitch around the dowel, working through each stitch at the top of the wall hanging.
To create a hanger, cut 1-2 pieces of CC to your desired length and tie onto each end of the dowel. Use this to hang your masterpiece on a hook or nail wherever it will bring you the most joy!

Shall I show you the fabulous easy crochet patterns for this week?
This week I am contributing my Elegant Hair Scarf to this event.
This one is a super simple pattern using double crochets (US terms – triple crochet in UK terms) and works up quickly!
This one is worked up using a chunky yarn so you will be finished this one in no time!
The thicker yarn with the gaps make this one a perfect make for those chillier late winter / early Spring Days.
I adore this basket so much! The stitch is so pretty and the basket is so handy for lots of things.
Would you use yours as decoration like Agat has here, or would you keep it by your bed to keep your phone and glasses in? What about somewhere to keep those extra toilet rolls in the bathroom?
How cute is this one? I know that my daughter and nieces will be wanting a few of these along with a few done in smaller yarn with a smaller hook for pigtails and plaits.
These are really popular gifts and quick makes! Whether you just make the ear warmer, or add a scarf to match, maybe add it to a spa set for the perfect pamper yourself gift, you cannot go wrong with making one or two (or seven or eight) of these!
This winter I have been drawn to infinity scarves and this one is a great one with an easy repeat. It is a perfect project for practicing those X stitches on and will look great dressed up if you are going for a meal, or dressed down for walking the dogs!
How elegant and cozy does this one look?
Trista has a great eye for detail and the simple repeat in this pattern works just perfectly!
Now this lady is not afraid to play with texture.
Courtney’s design is perfect for the Spring and is another quick and easier than it looks project!
What colours would you make yours?
Can you go wrong with a bit of houndstooth?
If you have never tried it before then grab this project and give it a go!
This project would make a great set with the criss cross scarf by Loops and Love above!
By the time you have finished this project you will be a master at the X stitch!
I love how a row or two of a complimentary colour work so well in designs.
In my house I can never have enough cup cozies. It is an unspoken rule that there must be one or two in both my car and my husband’s, and at least one in my bag. My daughter has been known to also give them away in the local coffee shop because people have admired them!
This COLOURWAYS reminds me of the setting sun. This wall hanging just makes me smile.
Do you have any particular colours that mean anything to you that you would make this one in? What about birthstone colours of your children / grandchildren?
There are a few ways to wear this beautiful design – you should check them out!
This is another elegant but simple project that will work up in no time.

Looking to winter and Christmas this year has been all about the men for me, which is what got me thinking about the stag placemat. Note: this post may contain affiliate links. Stags are universal – men, women and children like stags and your colour …
Here is the first of several patterns in the Stag Collection – the stag throw pillow.

For the last few years I have had issues finding patterns outside of scarves and hats that are suitable ‘for him’. There are oodles of patterns out there ‘for her’ and for children. I wanted to create a collection of patterns that were suitable as gifts for the men in our lives.
The stag seemed to fit in perfectly with what I was looking for and thinking about. Stags are, of course, male, strong, and protective but have a sweet, caring, gentle side.

The stag throw pillow is the first pattern in this collection to be released. I designed it specifically for the Furls Blog Hop 2021. There will also be an afghan in two sizes, a placemat and a buffalo check coffee cozy coming your way soon. I may add to the collection in 2022!
I have designed this one to fit a 20″ pillow form using corner to corner with the half double crochet stitch.
Furls were so good to send me an Odyssey hook and the yarn I needed for this project. I love the Odyssey hooks! They did take me a project or two to get the hang of using them because I had to move my hand further back on the handle. But they are now probably my favourite hook to use … and they come in so many pretty colours! I have plans to make another one in cream and beige for my sister and her husband.
I used 4.5 skeins (approx 540 yards) of their Wonder Yarn in obsidian (black) and 2 skeins (240 yards) of red. There have been mixed reviews about this yarn but I have to say I enjoyed working with it! I find using black in my corner to corner projects is fairly easy because of the ridges it creates on each row.
If you want to check out the Wonder Yarn you can do so here.
Odyssey hooks can be found here.

Once you have sewn in your ends, you may find it easier to SC evenly around each square, making sure to work 3SC in each corner.
Step 1: Take your front and back panels and place wrong sides together (this means that the right sides will be facing outwards).
Step 2: SC around three sides of your cushion ensuring that you sc through both the front and the back panels. At each corner (sc, ch1, sc). Do NOT work the last side yet.
Step 3: Insert pillow form into cushion and then continue to sc along the last side. This might be a little trickier as you have the pillow form to work around too. Slip stitch to the first stitch you made. Do not fasten off yet!
Step 4: Crab stitch in each sc and ch1 space around. SS to join. Fasten off and weave in ends.
The Acorn Square was designed specifically for the Cozy Fall MAL hosted by Knitting with Chopsticks and Noors Knits. When you think of Fall what do you think of? Falling leaves, the crunch under your feet as you walk, the brisk air, a hot drink? …
