Make sure you stop into KnitWit this month if you want to grab a chance to win a set of Lykke Driftwood interchangeable needles!Casapinka Botanique is designed with 15 sections plus borders on either end to really keep your interest. Each section is inspired by something related to spring, from blooming trees, to spring rain. There are also dot stitches, lace, flowers, butterflies, thistle, lettuce and catnip, and tea. You will have so much fun with this! You can, however, replace some of those sections with garter, stockinette, or the mesh pattern that is used if you wish to make it similar.Third Coast, by Laura Dobratz, is an adorable textured pullover with a moderately boxy shape, split hem, and slim sleeves that are flattering on a variety of body types. It’s knit bottom up in the round, after a back and forth hem, with a textured pattern that is both easy to memorize and fun to knit. Once you start on the sleeves, you’ll fly through them; with mainly stockinette stitch, they’ll be perfect for a weekend Knitflix marathon. Third Coast has the versatility to be dressed up for date night, down for family pizza night, or anything in between.KnitWit Yarn Shop Facebook Page
