Classic Elite Knits, 100 Gorgeous Designs For Every Occasion
.But before I convince you how much you need this book, check out this link; you can actually see the projects in the book: http://www.classiceliteyarns.com/pattern_detail.php?patternID=65
And you can see who’s knitting them on Ravelry!
Ok, ready? Here’s my take on this book.
The cover is interesting in the fact that they have combined a warm orange with a cool purple/mauveish shade and totally made it work.
If you check out the link above, you’ll see sweaters, vests, scarves, mittens, bags, coats, t-shirts to fit every size human! Even the cutest little princess socks.
These projects are easy, these projects are design intensive, these projects are all consuming. One book, every type of knitter. Make the Bulky Ridge Cardigan quickly and easily. Or, go all super knitter and tackle lace, cables, short row shaping, embroidery, and colorwork. Classy or sassy, whatever you like, it’s in there!
This is what the publisher, Taunton, says: “This exciting collection features patterns by well-known names in the field, including Melissa Leapman, Annie Modesitt, Michele Rose Orne, and Kathy Zimmerman, along with the work of up-and-coming designers. So much variety.”
Knit these design in Classic Elite’s yummy assortment of yarns and you can’t go wrong. This book’s a keeper, sorry local library!
Obligatory snowflake pattern post:
Augh! I’ve exhausted the knitted snowflake patterns on the net. If anyone knows of any, please send them along. I’m interested in just knitted snowflakes, like the kind you’d block out, starch and then display.
Today I’m going to pour through my collections of patterns and magazine clippings for ideas, yes, I’ve been known to tear out a picture or pattern in a magazine.
Looking forward to all of your wonderful snowflake patterns…… (HINT!)
