2024 Summer Trend: Crochet

Amazon Links

Crochet items are full of texture and character, and they’re making a big comeback in the fashion world in 2024! I’m seeing this trend absolutely everywhere this season, and I’ve even got a few pieces on my wishlist. From adorable tanks and swim cover-ups to the cutest handbags and totes, I’m rounding up all of my favorite crochet pieces I’ve been seeing at your favorite retailers for Summer 2024.

Crochet Trim Banded Hem Tee (Size 1) | High-Rise Wide-Leg Cropped Denim Jeans (Size .5)

Crocheted items are a big trend, and you might have seen them in the stores. I especially like the Crochet Trim Banded Hem Tee because it is lined, so you don’t have to add a camisole to the look. I paired the top with these High-Rise Wide-Leg Cropped Denim Jeans. These can be worn now and into fall, so you should get a lot of wear from them.

Lace Crochet Poncho (S/M) | Ribbed High Neck Tank (Size 1) | Wide Leg Cropped Trouser Jeans (Size .5) | Hexie Multi-Strand Necklace | Cassie Gold-Tone Circle Earrings | Gold Tone Beaded Stretch Bracelet | Women’s Wedge Sandals (Available in Black)

The Lace Crochet Poncho comes in several colors, but this bright green grabbed my attention from across the store. I wanted to wear a matching tank under it, but the store was sold out. So, I wore a navy Ribbed High Neck Tank under it, and I liked the way the navy allowed the crochet pattern to stand out. The poncho is sewn down the sides, so it has arm holes.

2024 Summer Trend: Crochet

Accessories

Talbots Izzy Espadrille Flats

I saw these crochet flats and knew I had to share them! They look so cute and are breathable for hot summer days. I thought they would be the perfect shoe to transition your outfits into fall when sandal season is over but it’s still too hot to wear boots. They also come in pretty turquoise blue and navy.

Here’s a well-made, quality paper straw crochet tote bag that holds everything you could possibly need…. and more! It is a beautiful neutral tan, which is my favorite. The best thing about this bag is that it’s spacious and has lots of room for all your goodies.

Hand Crochet Tote Bag

I always say if you want to try a trend, accessories are the easiest way to try it out! This crochet tote is a great size for your everyday items. Plus, it will match everything in your closet and even look great with your outfits this fall. The tote has a gold lining that shines through the crochet.

The Sak Lumi Convertible Crossbody Purse

Here’s another crochet handbag by the same brand, in case you don’t like carrying around a giant tote. This one is a great bag for holding the essentials, like your phone, keys, wallet, a travel-sized bottle of lotion, and some lipgloss!

Apparel

Nordstrom Crochet Knit Sleeveless Cotton Blend Sweater

Let’s talk more about apparel! I know what you think—crochet sounds so hot for summer! But most of the pieces I’m sharing today are actually the opposite since they have lots of holes for great airflow. I love this sleeveless sweater, and you best believe I would be wearing it well into fall. Add a denim jacket or a white blazer on top, and you can wear this top from July to October!

Chico’s Crochet Gauze Trim Skirt

This maxi skirt from Chico’s is another super airy item that will keep you both cute and cool during the hottest days of the year. I would wear it with dressy sandals or a wedge, but it will look cute this fall with a boot.

Loft Wavy Stripe Scoop Neck Sweater Tank Top

I know a lot of the crochet pieces I’ve shared have been in a neutral color, so here’s a little bright and colorful piece from Loft to add to your wardrobe! This sweater tank top reminds me of the sunset, and it would be adorable paired with a white or cream pant or shorts.

Callie Sheer Knit Cotton Top (Medium) | ‘Ab’Solution High Waist Itty Bitty Bootcut Jeans (Size 8) | Hazel Pointed Toe Pump (TTS)

My friend tried this Callie Sheer Knit Cotton Top on first, but it didn’t go with her skin tone. When she put it back, I tried it on and loved it. You can see through the holey knit, but I’m wearing a nude bodysuit underneath, so everything is good. The top is slighlty oversized, so I tried a small also. However, I liked the oversized look, so I bought the medium. The top is also available in a couple of other colors.

Talbots Crochet Sweater Dress

You gurls know that I absolutely LOVE shopping at Talbots, and I found this gorgeous crochet dress on their website. It comes in XS-3X in regular and petite sizes. This is one you could easily dress up or down depending on which shoes and earrings you choose.

Swim Cover-Ups

ANRABESS Women Swimsuit Crochet Swim Cover Up

I’ve shared a lot of cover-ups and swimsuits this year, but now let’s talk about crochet cover-ups! This long-sleeve one comes in sooo many different colors and color combinations (like over 25!!!!). Imagine sitting on your friend’s boat in this classy black and white stripe cover-up or heading to a poolside lunch wearing this with a cute straw sunhat.

Jeasona Women’s Bathing Suit Cover Up

This is a popular one with almost 17,000 5-star ratings on Amazon! It looks super breathable and lightweight, which is important to help promote quick drying since nobody wants to wear a soaking wet, heavy cover-up on their walk back to the beach or lake house.

Bsubseach Crochet Cover Ups for Women

I know some of you gurls prefer your items to go past the knee to give you a little extra leg coverage. This cover up dress is a little longer in the front and the back! It does have some pretty high side slits, so if you want to wear it to a poolside lunch, you might want to slip some shorts underneath!
