I was so, so happy to be the featured blogger in ‘Blogspotting’, the last page feature in Knitscene’s Summer 2015 issue (out now!). It’s all the fun of being in one of the best knitting magazines, without the hard work of designing a pattern. 😉
I know, there is a sneaky WIP in this photo that I haven’t talked about yet- but I will next week!
I’m especially pleased to be in such sensational issue- there are loads of designs in here that I would knit. My top faves are:
Top row, left to right: Green Apple Tank, Couru Cowl, Lake Ontario hat. Bottom row: left to right: Lake Michigan Tee, Battement Tee, and Tisbury Pullover.
In particular, there’s a very cool and on-trend section of southwestern-style patterns with some featuring fringe, and they are all modern and relevant designs with a great fringe-to-knit proportion (translation- no crazy dramatic fringe here, just little hits of sort, modern fringe). Just check out the Couru cowl above- it’s my favourite fringe-y knit in the bunch, and looks like it would be completely trans-seasonal. The featured designer for this issue is Allyson Dykhuizen, with four perfect for summer designs (two of which made my top picks of the issue, above!) you can check out all the patterns and information about each here.
