Here is some patterns I have that I’ve been pining over knitting. They are on the long to-do list! Now, only to find yarn!

 

I am enjoying stripped sweaters a great deal this spring season. When done in bright colors accented by whites it feels very sporty or nautical. What you can’t see about the first image is that the white in the middle is a lacey fishnet type panel. I think that it’s a great feminine touch. The second picture here calls for warm browns and beiges. I can see this would be very beautiful in “Silk Ice” type wool. Maybe this one can wait for Fall.

 

This shrug pattern came into my life not to long ago. It’s perfectly modern but even more delightful coming from a vintage pattern. I hope to get some flower colored fuschia or maybe a purple tone cashmere for this. The next pattern is so scrumptious because it is knit very rectangular and only comes together on the shoulders in two small areas leaving your shoulders exposed in a sexy peek-a-boo mannor.

 

Cap sleeves are adorable with out going to ruffly, full or ballooned. The image after shows a pullover with so many interesting points. I love the seed stitch, topped by cable patterns and a ruffle at the colar.
