Examples of crochet accessories

Accessories are a great way to start crocheting. They are usually quick to make and give you a sense of achievement that will motivate you to crochet more. At Crazypatterns you will find many patterns that even beginners can do well. Crazypatterns also offers more difficult and challenging crochet patterns for accessories. All of them are marked with the individual difficulty level by our authors.

For example, use the following crochet patterns for ladies to make great accessories:

Crochet your own jewellery easily

Real jewellery is expensive, especially if it is gold or platinum. Models with diamonds and silver jewellery are also exclusive and highly priced. Much cheaper, but no less attractive, is self-crocheted jewellery. You can easily make your own by using our crochet patterns for accessories. Crochet jewellery is also much more natural and creative than bought jewellery. For example, how about a beautiful necklace with a pendant that draws attention to your décolleté? You can choose from different variations. For example, there are rather short, but also medium-length and extra-long chain designs.

Fashionable loop

How about a chic loop? This is a modern version of the scarf that is not wrapped around the neck but simply pulled over the head. The loop is very comfortable and available as crochet patterns for accessories in several variations. For example, in combination with a matching hat or in the same design as your gloves. With crochet patterns for accessories you can easily make your own set of matching accessories.

Tip: The so-called spiral loop is particularly cool, as it offers even more visual variety.

Crochet necklace

A necklace is an alternative to the classic necklace and is usually worn particularly tightly around the neck. You can make it extra creative thanks to crochet patterns for accessories and choose a pattern of your choice. Crochet a necklace as a set with matching earrings to complete your jewellery design. There are narrow or wider necklaces to choose from.

Scarf and hat for cold days

Scarf and hat must not be missing in the crochet patterns for accessories. Both are indispensable on cold days if you don't want to get sick. The hat protects your head and ears, the scarf your neck. You can crochet the popular accessories rather thin or thick, depending on whether you want to wear them in winter, autumn or spring. Fancy patterns make both pieces look even more attractive.

Playful crochet bow

With small details you can make different accessories even more individual. For example, a cute bow or several crochet bows are ideal to attach to your garments. For example, how about a bright red or yellow bow to add a splash of colour to your accessories?

Stylish mobile phone case

If your smartphone is not well packed, small mishaps are more likely to happen. You may drop it or damage the display by accidentally knocking it. With a stylish mobile phone case, this will no longer happen. You can store your mobile phone in it and, in the case of larger models, even small utensils. A crocheted mobile phone case also serves as an accessory and can also be a real visual highlight when crocheted with motifs. Use our creative crochet patterns for accessories from Crazypatterns.

Protect your hair with soft hair bands

Very strong hair elastics are not suitable for hair because they can easily break off due to too much pressure. With soft hair bands, this won't happen. Especially long braids can be comfortably tied up without damaging the hair structure. Use our crochet patterns for accessories to crochet beautiful hair bands that perfectly fix hairstyles.

Tip: Want to protect your ears from the cold in winter? Then why not opt for chic earmuffs or a headband that you can easily crochet yourself.

Arm and friendship bands

Give your best friend a homemade crocheted band - it's possible with crochet patterns for accessories that come in many variations and designs. Bracelets are also a natural alternative to classic bracelets made of gold, silver or another precious metal. They are not only more individual, but also much cheaper. Find a suitable crochet accessory tutorial, for example a wide or narrow bracelet.

Fashionable arm warmers

In the cold season, scarfs, hats or arm warmers are used as warming accessories. Cuffs are simply pulled over the forearms and serve as a substitute for long woollen jumpers. The ideal combination is a short jumper with chic cuffs that are colour-coordinated with your outfit.

Swaddling cloths for your baby

Do you always want to have your baby close to you? Then why not opt for a soft wrap that will keep your baby snuggled up against your body.

Creative hair accessories

Various details serve as perfect hair ornaments. For example, small bows, flowers or other things that you can crochet and attach to the hair with a hairpin. Crochet hair accessories are great for special occasions like weddings or summer pool parties. Get active with crochet patterns for accessories and embellish your hairstyle with beautiful crochet details.

Accessory bags

A bag is always a fashionable accessory. Crochet bags that you have designed yourself look particularly beautiful and individual. Let our crochet patterns for accessories inspire you to create the bag of your dreams.

Tip: Take a look at our "New products" section. Here you will find the latest instructions for accessories and other knitted, sewn or crocheted textiles.

Why crocheting accessories makes sense

Crocheting your own accessories makes sense for a number of reasons. You save money on bought pieces and create something stylish and individual that enhances your outfit. Crocheted items are also a great gift idea.

All the advantages of self-crocheted items at a glance:

Ready in a short time: You only need a few materials to make accessories. Many of the small pieces can be finished quickly because of their size. For example, you can quickly crochet a beautiful necklace or bracelet as a lightning gift when you don't have time to go shopping.
Quick sense of achievement: Crochet patterns for accessories are ideal if you have just started crocheting. The difficulty level of most pieces is low, so you can quickly achieve success. Many beginners start with accessories and then build up their crochet experience.
Practical and inexpensive: Many of the accessories presented here are not only needed once, but in several variations for different outfits. To save money, you can make a whole collection of different crochet accessories at a comparatively low cost.
Unique: If you crochet yourself, you can add your own touch to all crochet patterns for accessories. Modify small details to create truly unique items.

Tip: You can learn certain crochet techniques by following the instructions in the video tutorials. You can also find lots of tips on our Facebook profile.

Accessories spice up your outfit and are also a wonderful gift idea. They are a great way to relax, for example in the evening on a cosy couch.

Crochet accessories for beginners

As a beginner, a certain basic know-how is sufficient to start with the first instructions, especially accessories are not very difficult to make. Opt for crochet patterns with simple materials, choose only one colour and do without complicated patterns and motifs at the beginning. Thanks to Crazypatterns you can make accessories easily, because everything is explained step by step. The authors also give you advice on the crochet hooks and yarns you need.

Which materials are the right ones?

To crochet accessories, all you need are a few crochet hooks and some coloured yarn. A few accessories for decoration will help you to create your own individual design. You can crochet thin or thicker versions, depending on the season in which the accessory is to be worn. All parts that come into direct contact with the skin should be as soft and skin-friendly as possible. Therefore, choose yarns that are not scratchy, pleasantly soft and well tolerated by the skin.

Tip: If you are a beginner, you can invest in crochet starter sets, which include a few crochet hooks and yarns in various thicknesses.
