The Cranberry Harvest Set celebrates the depth and beauty of autumn, inspired by the cranberry bogs of the Northeastern United States, particularly those found in New Jersey. Worked in a soft gradient yarn, simple stitches build a tactile, berry-like surface. The cowl is joined seamlessly and the headband has a twisted finish. Both work up quickly, with a soft, fluid drape, and both are accessible even to confident beginners.

Olha Bykova, on designing Cranberry Harvest Cowl

The designer

Olha Bykova

I have been holding a crochet hook since childhood. Design is where everything I love comes together: crochet, mathematics, and the ability to tell stories. I am drawn to texture in all its forms. The most meaningful designs are the ones you can read with your hands as well as your eyes. Much of my work is accessories and home decor, where texture can take center stage.
