Not Your Grandma's Crochet — The Lexington Line

Summer 2022 trends have been circulating all over social media, and we can’t help but notice that crocheted looks are all the range. If you’ve somehow missed all the crochet cardigans and dresses all over your feeds, just know that they’re in for this summer. Don’t worry, they’re not like your Grandma’s—this crochet trend is bright and full of life.

Crocheted clothing has always been popular. The trend started in the 1970s and reoccurs every once in a while. This year’s trend consists of bright colors and loose crochet stitches, which is a fresh take to the already popular style. Many TikTokers have been posting about their own predictions surrounding the trend, and the photos are stunning.

Last fall at Milan Fashion Week this trend was already being predicted. Designers like Alberta Ferretti, Etro, and Blumarine sent their versions of the look down the runway. Now, stores are releasing clothing with bold prints and beautiful silhouettes, just in time for vacations and cultivating the perfect summer wardrobe.

If you have been keeping up with social media predictions, then you also know about the increasing amount of people who’ve been taking up crocheting as a hobby. Quite honestly, their own creations are just as trendy as what stores have been releasing.

Even though summer isn’t here quite yet, we’re just as excited as you are after seeing all of these looks. But in the meantime, try learning how to crochet and make sure to shop the looks from above.
