I needed a simple and quick cotton knit for summer! I’d been planning on knitting a matching tank for my Zoey cardigan for quite awhile and this was it! I like designing a basic base and then adding a little extra detail. So with this tank, I started with a basic scoop shape for the front and a deeper u shape in the back, a stockinette stitch, then finished it off with the ties. I made them long enough so that they can be versatile to wear them in a couple different ways. This tank pattern is easy to knit and I would consider it for advanced beginners. There’s some shaping involved! But if you’re a beginner and like to try new things, give it a go! You’ll love it!

This sweater pattern I released back in April, but never got around to posting here. I needed something fun and bright and airy for spring and summer! I like to mix up stitches with big cotton projects because it helps the knitting seem to go by faster. Any knitting of continuously the same stitch tends to make my motivation to finish it falter. So this sweater is big and oversized, varying stitches and color patterns, and a pretty fun piece to do! With the holes on the arms, I used duplicate stitch to add little colorful flowers, which I just love how they turned out! It’s really a piece that’ll make you happy.

Hey guys! I hope everyone is having a super fabulous awesome weekend! This week has been so hectic and crazy for me, between my car breaking down and trying to find ways to get from point a to b, to just regular life! Car troubles are the worst! I feel like I should always have a backup vehicle for when things like this happen. But I know one way or another, things will work out! Not going to stress about it.
I decided to throw a little weekend sale through tomorrow evening! All patterns in my shop are currently 25% off, so go scoop them up while you can!
I’m working on a new spring design here! It took me a week to get a grip on an idea for it. When I’m using multiple yarn colors, I have so many ideas in my head that I sit here forever tossing them all over until I can finally settle on one. And then when I start knitting it, it changes a few more times. 😂 I love it. I’m trying to use a majority of one color because of the fact that We Are Knitters and probably other yarn companies as well, are out of stock in quite a few of their yarns. But you know me, it’s definitely going to have a little color.
This is the color line up for this design. It will mainly be this natural shade of cotton from We Are Knitters, which I have ten of. Then I have a few fun tropical colors to accent it. I’m so happy I’ve been stocking up on cotton yarn for the past couple years because now I have quite a few random colors.
I’m so so happy spring is coming. Nothing quite lifts the mood like sunshine, warm weather, flowers, and being outdoors. I’m trying to plan a couple sweaters for my florida trip in April. This current project will be one of them, and then I want to do one more. Maybe a completely solid basic one. Much as I love lots of color and fun designs, one good go with everything sweater is a must! I’ll keep you all updated.😊
happy love co
