summer of stripes KAL part 2
Friday, May 27, 2022Part 2 of the Stripe Inspiration to get you excited about the Summer of Stripes KAL starting on June 21 and running until September 21! Gina (SkeinCocaine) and I will be your friendly hosts and hope we can all get excited about stripes. If you've never knit stripes before, now is your time!
I honestly can't believe how many cute striped sweaters there are! Honestly something for everyone. And if you are not into knitting sweaters, I completely understand. Stay tuned for more accessories full of stripes. And remember to check out part 1 as there are some there, too.
Top Left: Simple stripes by SuviKnits. This is the sweater that started it all. I LOVE this sweater. This is the one I will be making (again) as I have the Perfect Palette in Pastels. I knit mine a little different with a 3/4 sleeve instead of a long sleeve. It's a top down knit and the pattern is available in either fingering weight or dk weight.Top Right: Stripes! by Andrea Mowry. This cute sweater has been very popular. And I do love those 3/4 sleeves!
Bottom Left: Chunky Rib Sweater by Knitting for Olive. Remember... Stripes don't have to come in contrasting colors!
Bottom Right: Rock it Tee by Tanis Lavallee. My friend Christine reminded me of this cute summer wear. Looks as light as a feather!
Top Left: Sea Glass Sweater by Wool and Pine. Oh how I love the idea of this sweater! It is THE stash buster in my opinion. It is knit top down in the round in a 1x1 color work pattern. It truly offers endless opportunities to use up this scraps, minis and stash yarn!

Top Right: Diagonal Stripe Sweater by Patons. Definitely an interesting knit as I'm not sure how those stripes are achieved but sure looks fun to knit!
Bottom Left: Stripes of Joy Sweater by Tif Nielan A worsted weight top down construction that looks very easy to wear. I think it's the eyelet detail gives this piece that extra bit of joy!
Bottom Right: Scrappy Striber by Pia Trans. Another stash buster using as few or as many colors as you would like. I love the play this gives the knitter. I also love how the designer included instructions on how to make the long sleeve version if you would like.

We all know that misery loves company, but if you are miserable all the time, others won’t want to hang out with you. https://dltutuapp.com/tutuapp-download/
ReplyDeleteFocus on the positive aspects of your life, what you are looking forward to, or what you want to do. https://kodi.software/
ReplyDeleteBeing positive is a goal as much as it’s an instruction here. Trying to be positive can have an effect on your own mood and quality of life. If you’ve had a terrible day, you can talk about it with people around you, but don’t dwell. Be positive that things will improve. https://showbox.run/
