As I write this, the beautiful sunny day outside is screaming "spring is here!". Crocuses are blooming, bees are buzzing and the sun is shining. So this Corner is inspired by today's weather.
I love this cowl called "Spring Treats Cowl" by Jessica Pelon ($6.50 on Ravelry). Spring treats on a cowl! Too cute. Even if you are not a fan of Peeps, this cowl is just too cute. It's knit up in a worsted weight wool, so Malabrigo Rios would work great, as would Deluxe Worsted or Uptown Worsted. Lots of color choices there.
Recently I saw this crochet project that I think is just adorable and so cute for the Easter holiday. Oliver Bunny by Nicole M. Anderson (~$6 on Ravelry). So sweet! He's got a little scarf! He's crocheted with a DK weight yarn, so Jody Long Ciao would work nice for this! Or Ricorumi solids! Or hold 2 strands of fingering weight together to get a fun depth of color!
While I was searching for Oliver Bunny, I came across these cute Easter bunnies...Amigurumi Easter Bunny by Mari-Liis Lille and it's a FREE pattern! Suggested yarn is the Ricorumi solids, which we have in the shop. I think these guys would work up really fast.
The last pattern I want to share is one I have wanted to knit for a very long time but still have not done. A pretty spring cardigan with spring blossoms on it. It's a Norwegian pattern (available in English!) called Kirsebærblomstring / Cherry Bloom / Kirschblüte by Lene Tøsti (~$6.56 on Ravelry). It's worked with stranded knitting for the blossoms, while the centers are embroidered later after the sweater is done. Heritage by Cascade Yarns or Shetland Lite would be SO nice for this sweater! I WILL knit this someday!!!
Happy Spring to you all! Enjoy being outside if you can. Soak up some of that glorious sun (after the wind blows it in!!)
