If you are attending any of the big music festivals this year, you may already be thinking about what you will be packing in your rucksack to see you through the endless, hot days of music and mayhem and just because the dress code is casual, it does not mean that you have to compromise on style. You can still have a show stopping wardrobe without having to worry about getting your stilettos stuck in the mud! It is the Coachella Festival which takes place in the searing heat of the Californian desert during the month of April which will set the tone of festival fashion for the upcoming season and this year, we have seen a return of the Crochet style which looks set to take over at our home grown festivals this year and with our newly updated selection of Wool, you can grab your Crochet needle and lead the fashion pack this festival season.

When it comes to your festival wardrobe you can rock the hipster-chic vibe in an array of items crocheted using our high quality Stylecraft Wool. Possibly the most popular range of Wool for crochet is Stylecraft Special Double Knit Wool which is an extremely soft touch Wool and is available in a variety of gorgeous colour options. You can utilise the crochet trend in a number of ways such as a crochet waistcoat, sun dress or even a casual chic crochet bag. At the Coachella Festival in 2012, Hollywood star Vanessa Hudgens was seen nailing the crochet trend in a sweet, Pocahontas style crochet top with flower detailing paired with a casual pair of cut-off denims and a fringed bag. Homegrown star Sienna Miller went one step further when she stepped out in a gorgeous crochet sundress teamed with a brown weave belt and boots for an ultra-chic look. If you are heading to a field this summer for a weekend of music remember that you do not have to choose comfort over style and with an item crocheted from our gorgeous Stylecraft Wool selection, you can remain one step ahead of the fashion elite. Team your Wool item with a pair of sturdy boots, denim shorts and fun, colourful accessories for the ultimate in festival-chic this summer.
