Hi Everyone:
Hope you are all doing well. Just a small housekeeping note. Starting this week we will no longer be doing appointments on Fridays. . Hours are still open Thursdays by appointment 10 am to 3 pm. then drop in Fridays and Saturdays 10 am to 3pm. Thanks for being flexible to all of these changes.
Anyway onto the main reason for this newsletter. I have just finished knitting this great little top, it is one I have wanted to knit for several years. It is a loose fitting fun little top and you make the pattern your own as you knit it. picking which stitch pattern you want to do next. It is a free pattern on Ravelry , in fact it is two free patterns, I know that sounds strange, there is the original version which is super simple to knit just two big rectangles that you then sew together. Here is the link https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/cancun-boxy-lace-top
or this version of it which is what I used. In this version you can do much more size alterations and it is knit all in one piece for no sewing at the end. https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/sierras-lacy-tunic there is a little bit of calculating LOL but she maps it all out for you. With this version you can use any yarn , any weight and make any size you want.
I have made this top out of Juniper Moon's Zooey a wonderful blend of 60% cotton and 40% linen. which gets more lovely the more you wash it, and comes in so many really great colours.
So for $60.00 worth of yarn and a free pattern from Ravelry you to can knit this great little top.
If you would like me to put a colour aside for you just send me an email and we can go from there.
Take care and Happy knitting
