This is my first top down crocheted sweater and I think it turned out great. I slightly adjusted the pattern and used a plain HDC stitch instead of the one called for. You can find the pattern and yarns here.
Noro Cowl
Here is a cowl made from one ball of Noro Okunoshima which is silk, wool, angora, and mohair. I love the color combination! I made up the pattern but itβs mostly half double crochet and bobble stitches.

V stitch lace crochet scarf
I used three balls of Rowan alpaca classic yarn to make this simple lace scarf.
