Cloud cardigans are all the fashion at that moment and we’ve seen them sold in high street shops up and down the country. We absolutely love them – but why buy when you can DIY?
Lucy Djevdet is here to teach you how to crochet cloud appliqués. These sweet little clouds are super simple to hook up and can be used to customise all sorts of clothing. They’re perfectly sized for cardigans.
If you're not a big fan of cardigans don’t worry. You can use this crochet cloud appliqué pattern for anything you like. Add them to a crochet blanket, turn them into earrings… the world's your oyster!
Now it’s over to Lucy for her tutorial.

Things you need to know before you start crocheting!
Tension is not important for this project! Each one of your cloud appliqué will measure approximately 10cm (4") wide by 4cm (1⅝") high.
Each cloud is made up of three rounds; the first two rounds use Yarn A and the third round uses Yarn B. Once you have completed the cloud, use the plastic-headed pins to block them (stretch them into shape). Spray lightly with water and leave to dry.
