june knitcrate
Thursday, June 21, 2018I think I have mentioned before, but I have never been disappointed with a Knitcrate. You remember what it is, right? A yarn subscription service where a surprise box of yarn arrives in your mailbox! You can choose a monthly option or not. It's all up to you.
The fresh neons and icy brights of this month's shipments have you screaming for more. Celebrate the season with these popping, primary tones with a twist. These electric hues remind us of afternoons spent poolside, energetic beach towns, and the sizzling heat of summer days.
The yarn is just soooooo yummy. And although I am not a huge shawl maker, I thought the knit pattern that came with this months crate had me all... whoa. That fringe! I love fringe.
The Membership Crate:
Yarn: 2 skeins of Vidalana. 80% Superwash Merino, 10% Nylon and 10% Cashmere. That cashmere gives it that super deliciousness. (There are four different colors. I just happened to receive Chewy.)
The patterns. As always, there is both knit pattern and a crochet pattern.
Knit pattern: Minty Fresh by Taiga Hilliard. A traditional triangular shawl amped up with a leaf lace motif and fringe. I love it.
Crochet pattern: Lemoncello by Kalurah Hudson. A lightweight poncho that can be worn a multiple of ways. I really like this, too. If I was a crocheter I would consider making this. But knitting is my one true love.
As always, a $63.00 value for $24.99.
