EJ Slayton designed this outstanding new cardigan for the new issue of Creative Knitting. Wait until you see it. This is adorable and super wearable. We have four new colors of
Terra for summer. The new, deep purple is my favorite and is joined by a spring green, salmon, and a new silvery grey.
From last month.. oops Not Entirely Entrelac. was a free pattern in a recent retail newsletter. I left out that the CCO was a cable cast on. From the hundreds of calls and emails, I can tell you with great confidence that this pattern was a hit! I wish I hadn't made such a silly omission to generate that volume of calls.. but I was tickled to know it was popular! We also saw some great orders on Shopatron.
Print the picture, put it by your
Karaoke, and tell knitters to buy 2 or 3 balls. The pattern is still free on our website. here are over
40 colors of Karaoke and this scarf would be great in any of them.
