| Sustainable fashion is easy with this collection of 30 nature-inspired crochet designs. Sustainable never looked so good! Dear Crocheter, Can we take a few minutes to appreciate the work you're doing here? I know it's not something that we probably think about often, but crochet, along with many other DIY crafts, can be very earth-friendly. Especially when you use sustainable or recycled yarns, you're taking an active role in cutting down on waste and resource use. And that's a bigger deal than you might think. So much of what's out there today is what's called "fast fashion." Even if you aren't familiar with the term, you know what it is. These are clothing items that are made quickly, cheaply, and often don't last very long. And they burn through a ton of resources. By some estimates, the fashion industry produces more than 8% of the world's greenhouse gas emissions and consumes up to 20% of the world's fresh water each year. That's why it's important to acknowledge that you are not only crafty and resourceful and fashionable by crocheting, you're also contributing to the greater good. That's not all, though. Because you're here with us, in this paper-free, ink-free endeavor, you're taking eco-friendly to the next level. Oh! And you're looking good doing it, too! So let's keep that going with the I Like Crochet Earth Day Collection! Designer Nazanin Fard brings us the Georgina Motif Vest, made with cotton, wool, and recycled cashmere, so you know it's soft and comfortable. The front and back are worked with lacy floral squares, and it's easy to adjust the size. Plus, you can work the pattern in two colors, as shown here, or go monochromatic. This sweater is the perfect spring and early summer accessory, giving you that extra touch of warmth for those cooler days. The Lemon Buttercup Shawl, from Silke Terhorst, is as cute as it sounds. The warm yellow tones are evocative of sunny spring days, while the soft, warm, and sustainable alpaca yarn will keep you cozy when a cool breeze blows through. Eye-catching. Exciting. Fun. These are just a few ways to describe the Altaira Two Tone Tee, from designer Jessie Rayot. Midnight blue and pistachio green are the perfect complements in this adorable button-up tee. The organic cotton and hemp yarn is sustainable, soft, and easy to work with, giving you a wonderfully breathable top for even the warmest summer days. The I Like Crochet Earth Day Collection has accessories for you and your home, too! I don't know about you, but I could always use another plant hanger in my home or office, and the Horizon Plant Hanger fits the bill perfectly. Designer Hanni Banszki brings us this easy project, made with light grey cotton, which is ideal for showing off your indoor garden. Another project I love in the I Like Crochet Earth Day Collection is the Jade Lace Curtain. Here's a pattern that looks much more challenging than it is. In fact, this one is suitable for beginners. Light and airy, and made with organic linen, this design is customizable for just about any window. The I Like Crochet Earth Day Collection is a celebration of style and substance. Eco-friendly and sustainable yarns, along with your embrace of this digital, paper-free format, make crochet more than just a fun craft.
