Crochet Clothing Ideas

Good afternoon, all! I am tapping into the ever-creative hive mind for some ideas!

I have a lot of goals related to my crochet business for 2026, but I realized that I also want to take the time to do stuff for me this year, so that I don’t get too burnt out (unlike 2025). So I decided I really want to try and make some clothing this year!

But I don’t really have too many ideas. All that I know I want to make for sure is the ripple sweater and a shirt based off the cat sweater. So I am open to ideas! It can be a bolero, tank, shirt, sweater, pants, anything really, long as it isn’t too revealing. They can be free or paid (might self-indulge a little bit, lol!), and on any platform.

Thank you all in advance for your help!

You should crochet a mesh sweater! They work up great with scrap yarn and it’s pretty easy!

I bought the kitty purse and cat cardigan. Patterns are well worth the price and designer is responsive.
