Sun Shower Happy Hour, the name rolls off the tongue as smoothly as a crochet hook glides through yarn! This pattern is a crochet twist on its knit counterpart, featuring a delightful mix of easy yet captivating stitches. Whether you stick with the two-color scheme or mix it up with all the colors, you’ll craft the ultimate accessory for any time of the year.

The knit version of this pattern can be found here.

This pattern was designed as a collaboration with the dozens of participating shops participating in the 2024 Fiberside Summer Yarn Crawl, a virtual event happing this summer (in July and August). Your purchase of a $10 All Access Pass to the crawl includes a code to download both the knit and crochet versions of this pattern for FREE! Visit FibersideChats.com for more details.

This pattern has been professionally tech edited and tested. It is my first attempt at crochet design and I welcome questions or feedback.

Yarn:
Emma’s Yarn Super Silky, 80% Merino, 20% silk, 400 yards/ 100g
3 skeins (or 1,100 yards) of the main color.
2 skeins (or 600 yards) of the contrast color.

Shown in:

This is stunning in multiple colors as well. You can change colors each time the pattern calls for a cc (with the exception of the lovely links section where every 2 cc sections should be the same color, see image below) or work full sections in different colors as shown on pattern page 1. The knit version features Emma’s Yarn Theme Packs which would be perfect for this crochet version too!
