Dandelion Cardigan

Today I would like to show my new spring project - Dandelion Cardigan. I designed this cardigan to match my daughter's beach dress and her Aster Flower Panama Hat. The knitting patterns for panama hat and cardigan are available from my pattern stores.

 

I'm really happy with the result. This simple lace pattern looks really great with this beautiful orange cotton yarn. I also used the matching orange button to decorate the cardi.


Although I made this cardigan to match my daughter's summer dress, I think it looks great with her Little Bell skirt I knitted for her last summer.


Dandelion Cardigan is a quick and fancy project. All parts of it are knitted back and forth on needles, then they are sewn together and then stitches picked up for neck and front bands. I used my favorite summer yarn Phil 3 from Phildar for my cardi.

Aster Flower Panama Hat

Summer is coming and it is getting hot in the UK. So, it is time for summer garments and accessories! Today I'd like to share my new knitted design - Aster Flower Panama Hat. I also wrote a knitting pattern for it.



This beautiful hat is knitted in the round with sport/5-ply cotton yarn in white color. I used Safran cotton yarn from DROPS. It is one of my favorite summer yarns.







The Aster Flower Panama is knitted with beautiful lace pattern and decorated with knitted flower in orange and two green leaves. I also made a jagged edge of panama's brim.
I think this panama hat would be a great accessory for my little princess this summer, especially during our summer holidays. I just need to shop around and find couple of beautiful matching dresses and sandals for her.

Geometry Slouchy Hat

Today I'd like to share my first knitted project in April - Geometry Slouchy Hat. It is quick and fancy project which can be completed in just couple of hours.


This unisex hat is knitted in the round with pretty geometrical pattern. I used Phil 4 cotton yarn from Phildar in pastel peach color. It is really great yarn for textured stitches and for spring garments.
