Vogue Knitting Spring/ Summer 2014

VOGUE KNITTING SPRING/SUMMER 2014
I was very happy to receive my copy of Vogue Knitting Spring/ Summer 2014.  Although knitting for the summer seems counter-intuitive, I love to make warm weather garments. No sleeves, quick and easy!  And, I seem to have more time in the summer to unwind with a simple project.

I designed this tunic and knit it from the scrumptious Lorna's Laces Pearl yarn.  I think it would be gorgeous over white linen, or as an on -trend color block beach coverup.

It is a great primer for different  lace techniques and simple intarsia. The tabard style will flatter many different figures.  There is so little finishing that it is a quick and easy knit.

I am really excited about 2 or 3 -actually 4- yikes 5! new items and I will be posting again sooner rather than later.  I 'm delighted that all of those months of perpetual work are finally coming to fruition.  I can't wait to share more pictures!
