A 70s-Inspired Boho Duster with Colorful Bobble Flowers
Channel your inner flower child with this stunning 70s-inspired duster featuring vibrant bobble stitch flowers in a join-as-you-go construction. This intermediate-level pattern combines retro style with modern crochet techniques for a show-stopping layering piece.
Designed by Shannon & Jason (who have a serious love affair with both dusters and the 70s), this pattern works up surprisingly fast. The flower motifs use a playful bobble stitch and join as you go…meaning zero motif seaming. The body is worked in a simple single crochet and half double crochet pattern that even adventurous beginners will enjoy, and you'll learn how to change colors seamlessly in the round.
What Makes This Pattern Special:
Join-as-you-go flower motifs = no seaming required
Fast, satisfying construction with eye-catching results
Beginner-friendly stitch patterns with intermediate techniques
Colorful bobble flowers add vintage bohemian flair
Perfect length for dramatic layering (40.5–44" from shoulder)
Inclusive sizing S through 5X (28–56" bust)
The combination of soft DK weight yarns creates beautiful drape while the open, flowing silhouette flatters every body type. Wear it to festivals, over jeans, with maxi dresses, or anywhere you want to make a statement.
