Everbloom Belt

The Everbloom Belt is all about impact. Covered in an abundance of crocheted flowers and leaves, this upcycled accessory turns the simplest outfit into something impossible to ignore. Layer it over a plain dress, a long shirt or a chunky knit, and it instantly shifts the look from everyday to eye catching.

Using Scheepjes Maxi Sweet Treat, the design invites fearless colour play. With such a wide palette available, you can pack the belt with seasonal shades, explore rich colour contrasts, or build a look that ties in perfectly with your wardrobe. The motifs are arranged on a felt base and then fitted around an existing elastic belt, making it easy to adjust the length, density and colour balance. Whether you start with a thrifted belt or one you already own, the result feels fresh, expressive and entirely personal.

The Everbloom Belt pattern includes full written instructions and a crochet chart for the leaf motif. It is part of Scheepjes Pattern Portfolio Volume 06: Maxi, featuring six upcycling crochet projects by Kwannie. The booklet is available in print from Scheepjes retailers and as a digital download on Ravelry, in English and Dutch.
