May is here and our crazy weather continues to be a combo pack of sunny warm days and cold rainy ones. I find myself wearing a jacket and then shedding it moments later because I am warm. My body can’t decide if its cold or hot and I’m struggling to get comfortable. This same back and forth is going on in my knitting world as well. I just finished a winter cowl yet I’m working on a linen short sleeve sweater for Summer. Continuing on this smorgasboard theme here are a variety of patterns that have recently caught my eye.
Another one that I love is Seaside Tee by Cheryl Mokhtari. It is also available on Ravelry. Talk about comfy! This one fits the bill. Its relaxed loose fit is perfect over jeans. I love stripes and there are so many colors you could put together, even multiple colors would be fun. Some yarn suggestions are Alpamayo or Cumulus
For you crocheters here is a darling baby blanket. I’m always a sucker for baby blanket patterns and I adore this one with the fun colors and texture. It’s called, Snuggle Bean Blanket by Little Duck Crochet. Its available on Ravelry. A simple design but so cute for baby. Yarn recommendations include
Last is one that’s going to make you laugh!!! Another crochet pattern but is even more fun than the baby blanket. Wait for it……”Sprinkles The Ice Cream Narwhal”! What!!!??? This pattern is by Lorna Galtimore on Ravelry and I think it is the perfect Spring/Summer project. Who doesn’t like ice cream and narwhals!! I particularly like the sprinkles. Yarn suggestions include Uptown Worsted or Cotton Supreme
That’s it for now. I told you it would be a variety, like the weather. Hope you find your favorite “comfy” project.
Yarny Resolution Update: I’m continuing to Stash bust, mostly with giveaways of yarns I’ve finally admitted I won’t ever use. I finally finished the winter cowl I had started last Fall.
Lullaby Rain Shawl by Paula Emons-Fueslle is so pretty with its intricate pattern that reminds me of raindrops. With its top down shoulder hugging features It is perfect for those cool days or evenings over tshirt or dress. I love the romantic feminine look of this shawl. It is available on Ravelry. A great yarn for this would be Noro Sonata
