New Design: Between Seasons.

While deciding on the project to knit during my winter break from college, I thought it would be fun to design something for those single skeins of yarn people usually have in their stash and do not know what to do with and are not big fans of stripes like myself and love a little lace.  This is how Between Seasons pattern came about.

Between Seasons is an airy lace scarf with beautiful zigzag pattern. The scarf is knitted in two colors simultaneously and seamlessly from one edge to the other. The colors are changed in the middle with a simple trick. The same scarf can be worn in several different ways. If you fold it along the middle you can have a different color showing depending on which side is up. You can also wear it with both colors showing as a scarf or a wrap.
Multiple colors and beautiful lace create many possibilities on achieving different looks depending on how you wear your scarf. Thank you for choosing to knit Between Seasons and I hope you enjoy this project!

Happy knitting,

New Pattern: Roza.

Roza shawl pattern is now live :-)

Roza is an airy lace shawl/wrap featuring a beautiful flower blooms stitch pattern. Rose flowers and leaves evoke feelings of spring and summer, but this shawl would make a great accessory for any time of the year. The shawl is seamless and knitted from the provisional cast on in the middle to the edge in both directions. The joining row designed to have no offset in the pattern flow. The edges are finished by a delicate border with a picot bind off.

The pattern can be found on Ravelry and Sunny with a Chance of Knitting blog. 

Instructions are both, written and charted. 

The pattern will be 25% off its regular price until Sunday, July 26, 11pm Pacific time.
 

The sample shawl was knitted with 1 skein of Tussah Silk by DyeForYarn (Fingering / 4 ply,  100% Silk,  875 yards / 200 grams). 
Colorway: Rose coral lying on the shore OOAK.

Thank you so much to all my wonderful test knitters for their help and feedback and making this publication possible.

Roza

I am excited to show you my new design called Roza. Roza means rose in Russian. I loved working on it, both designing and knitting. I love how delicate this stole come out in DyeForYarn GmbH​ Fingering // Tussah Silk. Cannot say enough good things about this yarn. Pure joy and love :))) The velvety feel of it together with silkiness and wonderful drape make this an absolutely amazing yarn.
If you are interested in test knitting Roza, please send me a message on Ravelry. Details for this test knit and more Roza photographs an project info can be found here:

New Pattern: Leto.

Leto is my new design. This was very spontaneous project. I made up this stitch pattern myself, although I am sure it is nothing new. I like the slight zigzag effect it gives to the stripes. The finished scarf has no bias at all. It was quick and fun knit. The colors made me smile and reminded me of summer. “Leto” is summer in Russian.
This can work as a scarf, stole or a throw for my couch :-))

 The pattern is available on my blog and Ravelry.

I am running a promotion on this pattern right now.
The pattern will be sold at $2.00 (50% off its regular price) until Sunday, March 9, 11pm Pacific time. After that date it will be sold at its regular price of $4.00.

Happy International Women’s Day! Warm wishes and Peace to all :-)))

 Happy knitting,
