Now for this week’s knitworthy ideas…
Jasper.
A gorgeous textured blanket using stitches based on knits and purls. The repeating block stripes come out beautifully!
It’ll be a treasured cozy item for years to come.
Hemlokki scarf.
A lovely scarf inspired by the Hemlock Tree.
This is what Jenny Ansah says about her design:
“The word hemlokki is Finnish and means hemlock. The scarf got its inspiration from hemlock trees that are tall and have a beautiful crown. The story of the scarf resembles the natural cycle of a life. The tree grows slowly from a seed (seed rib stitch) to a tall evergreen tree (puff rib stitch) and in time it will fall back to the soil which it came from – through the natural cycle.”
Kyley shawl.
A crescent-shaped lace shawl with an openweave texture and finished with a picot edge. It uses the Garter tab cast on and other interesting techniques.
Hearts of love.
Pru Raymond’s bold stranded colorwork vest uses three colors. It’s a modern take on a vintage classic and the love hearts are the standout in this design.
