  • Summer Tweed

Our special last week was several colours of Summer Tweed at 40% off.  And we have even more colours of Summer Tweed at regular price.  Rowan has cooperated by posting on it’s website free patterns for seven classic Kim Hargreaves designs using Summer Tweed.  Have a look at Coral:

summer-tweed-coral 

A great pattern for beginners using just four skeins of Summer Tweed. 

We’ve always liked Ginger:

summer-tweed-ginger 

A cute summer top with a v-cut back.  Another great pattern for beginners, again using only four skeins.

Be sure to check out the other vintage Kim Hargreaves designs that are offered as free patterns including Anemone, Fusion, Hunter, Pebbles and Sea Breeze

And there are a couple more great designs for Summer Tweed in Nectar, one of Kim Hargreave’s wonderful collections.  Glint is a cute cropped shrug with short sleeves.  And Glimmer is a striking jacket with double buttons and slightly flared sleeves with lovely ruffled edging. 

Our special this week is another classic Rowan yarn, 4 ply cotton at 40% off the regular price.  This is a beautiful matte-finish, soft cotton yarn that’s perfect for lightweight summer projects.  There are loads of designs for 4 ply cotton in Rowan’s current and past summer magazines.  And have a look at two recent Kim Hargreaves designs in Nectar using 4 ply cotton, Glisten and Jasmine.

We have tons of ideas for summer knitting and crocheting projects.  Just ask and we’d be happy to help you out!
