Check out the New Holla Knits Accessories Collection

November 25, by Sarah White. Leave a Comment

check out the latest collection of accessories from Holla Knits.Speaking of warm things to knit, I recently came across the latest installment of Holla Knits Accessories. This collection includes eight patterns: three hats (one is fair isle crochet, which is super cool), two cowls, two pairs of mitts and a pair of slippers.

I keep being drawn to Ann Weaver’s Phaze II, a multicolored cabled cowl worked with a stranded knitting technique. It sounds kind of fiddly in places but the end result is really striking.

And because I just really need some knit slippers yesterday I’ve also got my eye on the Pom a Rama Slippers by Leah Coccari-Swift. The shape is super simple and they’re meant to be snug to keep your feet warm.

Check out the whole collection at the link at the top. Individual patterns are $4 and can be purchased on Ravelry.

See anything you like? I’d love to hear about it.

A Short and Sweet Top to Knit for Summer

I think one of the things that keeps me from wearing some of the summer tops that I have knit is that when they use worsted weight yarn, they’re actually heavier and warmer than a normal T-shirt would be. Which sometimes is fine, since I tend to be cold, but it’s not always what you want from your warm-weather gear.

That’s why shirts and tops knit with fingering (aka sock) yarn are so great. They’re super light weight and honestly they don’t take as long to knit as you probably think they will.

I’m sure that’s true with the Maya Top from Gavriella Treminio, especially if you choose the cropped length option. This top down sweater has a textured circular yoke with bobbles and eyelets, while the rest of the body is worked in stockinette stitch. Other than the integrated ribbed neckband, other edges are left in stockinette so they will roll slightly to finish the casual look. 

The design comes with seven different size options, ranging from 36 to 62 inches in the chest. The pattern page doesn’t say how much ease is meant to be included in the pattern, but starting at size 36 would leave it pretty roomy for folks in the smaller sizes.

I don’t think the suggested yarn is made anymore, but it looks like a top that would be lovely in a mercerized cotton or a linen and silk blend, something with a little bit of shine to it. This is one of those times when the yarn suggestions on Ravelry can be super helpful because you can see what yarn other people used and how their finished projects came out.

You can get this pattern on Ravelry.

Looking for more summer top patterns? I’ve collected some lacy top knitting patterns here, and a few great tank top knitting patterns here.
