Just when you thought summer fun was nearly over, we've come up with a darling design that will take your tween from summer into early fall with a bit of whimsey and a lot of style. Our Going in Circles Top in lustrous Simply Soft® features a unique neckline of joined circles and a wide-ribbed body plus very in-vogue elbow-length sleeves. Perfect for the first day back to school.

We love tunics! Put our Tunic Vest crocheted in Simply Soft® Heather over a long-sleeved tee and finish off the look with leggings or skinny jeans. It's magic! The tunic is flattering to every body shape and gives you maximum fashion flexibility, too.

he granny square has been a familiar friend to crocheters for a long time. In the hands of a talented designer like Treva McCain, our dear friend the granny square has received a bit of a makeover. Her charming Woodcliff Throw uses a variety of shapes and sizes of granny squares and rectangles to create a stylish vintage look in our bamboo-blend Spa yarn. Edged with a retro zigzag border, this throw will become a family favorite for years to come.

The pineapple motif is a trusted favorite of crocheters, too. Designer Karen Drouin gives it new life in our Aphrodite Shawl stitched in NaturallyCaron.com Spa yarn. A split-circle forms the basis of the shawl, with the lacy pineapple stitches making it light and classic at the same time. But the soft hand and texture of the bamboo fiber in Spa updates the drape and the feel of project for vintage fashion flair.
