In 2023 I created this pattern collection. I always wanted to try the Willow Yarns Denim Grace yarn and it happened to be on sale one day as individual skeins and a sampler pack. So..... how could I resist.

Willow Yarns Denim Grace (40% Acrylic, 30% Nylon, 30% Wool, 360 yards / 330 meters, 5.3 ounces / 150 grams)

Love this yarn! Unfortunately it is getting harder to purchase the nice colors. I think it may be on the way out. They used to have 12 colors I think. When I purchased the yarn you could buy a sampler package with 6 colors, or buy a bag of 5 of the same color at a reduced price. Now they only have a few colors left.

Fortunately for everyone, you can make any of the patterns in this collection with any dk weight yarn! You could use solid colors like I did or even self striping yarn. Would love to see the shawl in some pretty self striping yarn :)

The triangle shawl was the first pattern I created with the Willow yarn.

This is still one of my favorite shawl patterns :) It's a pretty stitch pattern that isn't complicated & has a nice lacy edging.

The next pattern was the beanie. It's a bottom up pattern that I should probably rewrite and make top down. Can't remember now why I made it bottom up..... lol. Probably has something to do with the stitches I used. Will have to take a closer look at the pattern and see if it can be changed.

I love to make cowls and scarves. Since I had yarn left over after the shawl and beanie, why not use a few colors to make different designs! I love to mix colors.

The first scarf is a nice unisex design. I think it would look great all in one color or some manly striping yarn.

The cream/yellow cowl is a fun pattern with an easy round repeat. A lightweight cowl that will be a great fashion accessory.

The blue cowl was crocheted with 3 of the blue colors that came in the color samlper package. A quick and easy row repeat with wonderful texture. Fun to create.

The triangle scarf is a quick and easy pattern with different stitch patterns. This scarf would look beautiful in 1 color, self striping yarn, or even in 3 colors. Use the yarn you have on hand!

Any of these patterns could be crocheted with dk or aran weight yarn.

Last but not least was the stole. It's not really a scarf, not really a wrap, so it's a stole. It would make a lovely shawl if it was longer and wider. The row repeats are a bit more challenging but if you take your time you will have no issues :)
