Interweave Knits...Summer 2014!!
Have you seen the Interweave Knits Summer 2014 issue yet? Soooo many gorgeous garments to knit up. Sometimes I only like a few garments in a magazine - this issue I love them all!!! My only problem is not enough time!! All the designs are classic and what I like to call “everyday go to sweaters.”
My top three are the Driftwood Tee, by Mercedes Tarasovich-Clark. Driftwood is a simple tee with a geometric lace panel on both the front and back for interest; easily my go-to sweater!! Zitron's
Patina would be a beautiful choice to knit up the Driftwood Tee. Patina is 55% Merino Wool and 45% Rayon.

My second choice is the Estuary Tank, by Amy Christoffers. A simple tank with four seperate pieces, knit in garter and stockinette stitch to create interest. The good news it is knit up with a bulky weight yarn…sooo, it's a quick knit!!! We will be getting a new yarn by Hikoo called Zumie. Zumie is a bulky weight yarn that is 50% Acrylic, 30% Wool, 20% Nylon.

My third choice is Farmstand Tee, by Lois S Young, a lacy yoked tee to give a little pop to a simple silhouette!! Hikoo’s, CoBaSi Plus would be a great yarn to knit up the Farmstand Tee. The cotton, bamboo and silk combination would make an attractive summer tee.

Happy Knitting,
