1. Taiyo Lace Color Block Top. For those of you who live in Chicago, there’s a gorgeous sample hanging at Windy Knitty, stop in when the Yarn Crawl starts next Saturday, August 2.
2. To answer Whit’s question on the Purl Bee, no, knitters don’t take up smoking when the weather warms up … They do other things! But for those who continue to knit when the temperature hits the high two digits and low three digits (Farenheit), here’s another comp pattern: Silken Straw Top, perfect over a tank top. Made in the round for your knitting pleasure.
3. For those who crochet: Red Heart’s Delectable Tee top. So pretty in purple.
4. Golden Sun, a seamless vest pattern, comp pattern only downloadable at Ravelry. Great way to use a stash of DK weight yarn.
5. Last but not least, Collier, the Berroco Yarns comp hat pattern designed by Norah Gaughan. Worked from the top down, this slouchy hat pattern is easy with some lace thrown so you don’t fall asleep while knitting.
That’s it, friends. Over and out to enjoy the summer fun, perhaps finish a worsted weight vest this weekend, just in time to buy some goodies at the crawl beginning next weekend.
