New Threads Thursday July 11, 2013


 

New Threads Thursday!

Today in Portland, it’s lovely summer sweater weather – 61° – the temps are going up & down all over the place and sometimes you’ll find the AC is still blasting when you least expect it. Instead of reaching for a boring old jacket, it seemed more fun to reach for this…

Here’s a lightweight CINNIE I just finished knitting for my own wardrobe.

I used a cotton/microfiber blend yarn (Plymouth JEANEE DK) that turned out crisp & lovely.

This verison has 3/4 length sleeves! I added a couple extra balls of yarn (@135 yds ea.) and followed the regular sleeve pattern but continued making decreases as directed until the sleeve was about 13.5". Then I finished it off with the regular style ribbing.

Me like! Now it’s my goTo jacket for around town or around the porch in the evenings.

Wishing you a Happy Summer with much fun knitting!
…Bonne Marie

Chic Knits BRYNNA

SPRING is here and it’s time to knit pretty…

We’ve celebrating New Threads Thursday here at Chic Knits!

Here’s a BRYNNA design with a slight twist: this version has 3/4 length sleeves and is a standard hip length.

This made us so happy, we’ve updated the pattern to include these mods…

For those knitters with a BRYNNA pattern, you’ve been sent an update!

For the rest of us with a Prom, Wedding or Bash coming up – this is the perfect icing on your party cake!
