In the spirit of summer, here's a pattern I think you'll enjoy making and wearing. Designer Katharine Hunt's original design used three yarns to provide both visual and textural interest. If you would prefer, you could make this using one solid color and a contrasting novelty yarn for interest. Note that the sweater is made with a DK weight yarn, and the novelty is worsted weight. You could substitute a lighter weight yarn for the contrast or even eliminate it without altering the pattern. Either way, yours will be unique!

Just to celebrate spring, I thought you might like the Lacy Waves Circular Poncho designed by Sue Childress. It's a light froth of feather and fan lace, and provides just the right amount of coverage. Wouldn't this be a beautiful idea for demurely gracing the shoulders of a bridal party during the ceremony?
