The Spring/Summer season is coming, despite anything you might have heard about cold weather snaps and impending blizzards, so now is the time to get out your cottons and linens in preparation for some warm weather knitting.
The runways for Spring/Summer 2013 were awash with florals, lace, stripes, ruffles, and easy tees, and we're excited to bring you our new collection, BELLISSIMA, in celebration of the new fashion trends of the season.
Later this week the Tahki Stacy Charles website will launch its Spring/Summer pattern collections and yarns, so be on the lookout for all the new garments and fibers--we hope you'll enjoy exploring them as much as we enjoyed creating them!

BELLISSIMA will quickly become your Spring/Summer garment dictionary: every piece in this collection is infinitely wearable year after year, but at the same time feels so on-trend for this particular season.
Fun, flirty tops define this collection, which features 13 garments that play with color, texture, stitchwork, and multidirectional knitting--boredom should not be a concern!
Your favorite warm weather yarns take center stage, with newcomer CUBETTO joining favorites CRISTALLO, TEMPO, TIFFANY, and BRILLA.

One of the newest additions to the Spring/Summer collection is fun and funky IBIZA. A cotton blend fancy yarn with a solid-colored central netting, IBIZA has multicolor fronds that sprout along one edge.
Ruffles are one of the hottest fashion trends to hit the runways, and IBIZA makes knitting ruffles incredibly easy. Lightweight and great for warm weather, it is perfect for adding a little flair to skirts, hemlines, and collars, but is just as lovely when worked alone, as in the DOMENICA SCARF, seen below.

The DOMENICA SCARF in IBIZA is a great way to practice knitting with a novelty net yarn and provides a lot of pizzazz for very little effort.
This scarf is a great statement piece to spice up a plain tank or tee and jeans, and because it only uses a single ball, you can feel free to make one for yourself, a friend, and a family member--it makes a lovely gift and works up very quickly!
