Cashmere Silk Blanket – The Little Heart Blanket

August 12, by Shellie Wilson. Leave a Comment

The “Little Heart Blanket” and “Snuggly Favourites” collection is a line of baby patterns that have been carefully curated by Sirdar designers to bring you a collection of beautiful designs for a new generation of Snuggly babies. This collection features their best-selling cashmere merino silk baby patterns that have been re-imagined in the gentlest fairy tale shades of Snuggly Cashmere Merino Silk. This means that you can look out for your own favorite designs, but with a new and updated look.

The yarn used in this collection is a blend of the softest cashmere, the smoothest silk and pure merino wool, which creates a gentle and cozy yarn that is perfect for keeping your baby warm and comfortable. This means that any knit from this collection would make an extra special gift for your most precious new arrival. The combination of these three fibers gives the yarn a luxurious feel, which makes it perfect for a baby blanket, sweater, or hat that is sure to be treasured for years to come.

 

Cashmere is a delicateyarn, so it’s important to handle it with care. To care for your cashmere hand-knitted items, follow these steps:

Hand wash or dry clean your cashmere items, as machine washing can damage the fibers.

Use a mild detergent specifically designed for delicate fabrics. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners.

Wash your cashmere items in cool water and rinse them thoroughly to remove all traces of detergent.

Gently press out any excess water, but do not wring or twist the fibers.

Lay the cashmere item flat to dry, away from direct sunlight or heat sources.

Once dry, store the cashmere item folded in a cool, dry place. Avoid hanging cashmere, as it can stretch and lose its shape.

Brush the cashmere with a cashmere comb or brush before wearing to remove any pills or fuzz.

By following these steps, you can help prolong the life of your cashmere hand-knitted items and keep them looking their best.

Pumpkin Knitting Patterns

There are so many great pumpkin knitting patterns out there, and it looks like I haven’t done a roundup of pumpkin knitting patterns in a few years, so it’s high time for another one.

The Lancaster Pumpkins from Cuddle Bunny Knits on Etsy are classic, made with stockinette stitch in the round and using super bulky yarn. If you’ve never knit a pumpkin before, this is a good place to start.

Jazz it up a little bit by knitting ribbing instead of straight stockinette, which gives your knit pumpkin a little more texture, too. This one is form Jessies Knits on Etsy. This one is worked flat on straight needles and there are three size options to choose from.

Or try the Pumpkin Patch pattern from Blue Sky Fibers, which is a free pattern on Ravelry. It’s worked with two strands of worsted weight yarn held together to give your pumpkins a marled look, or you can keep it solid. 

There’s another free ribbed pumpkin knitting pattern at Yarnspirations that is really cute. These are knit flat and seamed, and they come in three different sizes. You can either stack them as a centerpiece to decorate a table or you can leave them separate. Or make a whole pumpkin patch and do some of both! I love that they chose unconventional colors so you can see you don’t have to be limited to orange when you knit up your pumpkins.

Made by Devrie on Etsy has these cute pumpkins with twisted stitches (they look like cables but it’s only moving one stitch at a time) that you can make in any size with any yarn you like.

The Twisted Heart Pumpkin for Etsy seller Percival Makes Things uses cables to make a heart shape on the side of the pumpkin. It’s worked in the round and the cable pattern is charted.

And while I was really sticking to plain pumpkins here, not knit jack o’lanterns, I can’t resist sharing this beaded jack o’lantern knitting pattern from Knit Cole Studio on Etsy. The base pumpkin is simple Stockinette and you can stitch on beads in whatever design you like to make your face, or keep it plain.
