We are smack dab in the middle of my absolute favorite season - autumn!!! The colors are beautiful right now and on the sunny days we had recently, wow! The colors just popped. So much inspiration for knitwear (or crochetwear - it’s a word! If it’s not, it should be), especially things with multiple colors.
This Burnt Rust Toorie by Nicolle Estelle (on Ravelry it’s about $4.77) is so beautiful (and I love the colors the sample was made in). Wouldn’t it be pretty in autumn colors? I can see using Cascade Heritage for this or Queensland’s Shetland Lite with their beautiful solid colors.
With cooler weather comes sweater weather, which I also absolutely love. Honestly, I miss my sweaters during summer. I found this pattern Three Season Pullover by Wool & Pine (selling for $8.75 on Ravelry) which calls for Cascade Yarn Cantata solids which we have in the shop (we just received a restock!). It’s an aran weight yarn that’s 70% cotton and 30% wool and light as a feather. Perfect for cooler days. All those cables are just so gorgeous!
And this beautifully simple sweater is called Campside Comfy by Alicia Plummer, selling for $9 on Ravelry. I love her description of the pattern with rainy weather. The sweater looks like it has raindrops on it! It uses DK weight yarn. We just got in a beautiful new yarn called Harmony by Yarn Citizen and it would be so perfect for this sweater. As would Patagonia Organic Merino. This yarn is so light it would make such a nice, light sweater.
And an update for anyone who remembers my hubby was learning to crochet just so he could make Alien Xenomorph by WoollyCubs - he finished it and was so thrilled with it that he promptly created another and gave it away as a gift to a coworker!
