From One Rainbow to Another: How a Crochet Clog Sparked a Whole Vibe
Sometimes, inspiration comes wrapped in the most unexpected packages. In my case, it was a cozy crochet clog with a soft sole and a hypnotic rainbow pattern that stopped me mid-scroll. I had never heard of the brand before—an independent gem tucked in the corners of the internet—but something about that vibrant color story, the texture, and the playful craftsmanship made me click “buy” without a second thought. And just like that, a whole new design journey began.
If you know me, you know I live for a good pattern clash and a bold stripe (and it's what my own brand is all about). This little clog had it all—sunset reds, lemon yellows, oceanic blues, and soft creamy neutrals—woven into an arching rainbow that looked like it had danced its way out of a dream. It felt earthy, handmade, and yet thoroughly modern. It reminded me of something I might wear walking through a colorful street market or lounging at a beachside cafe near the Everglades—colorful, breezy, and alive.
And that’s exactly how The Everglades Rainbow Collection was born.
This new 7-piece capsule includes two joggers, two wide leg pants, and three cropped pullovers. Each piece was created to reflect the joy I felt when I slipped on that clog for the first time. The collection explores color-blocked stripes, star-spangled trims, and unexpected combinations that feel like a fresh twist on vintage athletic wear meets handmade art. It’s both elevated and accessible, cozy and confident.
The joggers come in two distinct styles—one features soft turquoise accents with bands of stars and white stripes, while the other leans into bold black-and-white contrast with multicolor overlays, giving you options whether you're feeling playful or full-on fierce.
The wide-leg pants come in two styles...BOTH were designed to flow with you—perfect for anyone who wants comfort but refuses to compromise on style. With a drawstring waist, hidden pockets, and breathable midweight eco-poly athletic wear fabric, they’re made to move. The stripes were placed with intention, nodding to the movement of the clog’s crochet waves.
Then we have the cropped pullovers, each with a distinct attitude. One brings a deconstructed twist with overlapping diagonal and horizontal stripe placements and subtle colorblocking that plays with symmetry in an unexpected way. Another embraces a cleaner profile with multicolor horizontal stripes anchored by a tidy elastic hem, creating a balanced, everyday-wearable silhouette. The third adds visual texture through color-shifting banding that wraps around the chest and arms—perfect for layering or standing alone as the statement piece. Each top is lightweight, breathable, and bold—designed to mirror the artistic unpredictability of that original crochet clog while staying true to my lifelong love affair with stripes (yes, I wrote a whole blog about it). This collection is a reminder that stripes, like stories, can always be reimagined.
What I love most is that this entire collection came from one happy accident of discovery. Supporting unknown, independent brands is not just something I do—it’s part of who I am. As the founder of SingleTree Lane, I understand the hustle it takes to bring a bold idea to life, especially when you’re a small voice in a noisy industry.
So here’s to the underdogs. To rainbow crochet clogs. To wearable joy. And to the magic that happens when we follow a spark.
Stay vibrant, stay unexpected, and most importantly—stay you. Check out the pieces here:
