Greetings!
Summer is just around the corner and that means warm weather knitting and summer crochet! It may be hard to believe, but this is the time when I knit bigger projects like sweaters. I seem to have a little more time in the warmer months especially since I am not driving my kiddos around to school and afternoon activities. Right now, I have the Fargo sweater, knit with Organik, both from The Fibre Co., on my needles. I don't feel the rush to get it done before the cold season ends, in fact I have a good 3-5 months to finish! I also find myself enjoying shawl knitting, this is the perfect time to knit lace and light weight projects. There are so many awesome new patterns that have arrived at Stash, I can't wait to get started on the many projects I have in mind for this summer.
