Summer projects - Liesl

Posted by Kristine Vejar on June 11, 2012 0 Comments

 Looking for a summer project? Cocoknits has several designs perfect for summer: open, net-like fabrics, sleeveless shirts, and long tanks.

I'm currently working on Liesl, out of Icelandic Farm Series yarn, held together with Habu's Fine Tweedy Silk:

 

The tsumugi silk is very fine and creates a subtle green shade in the grey fabric:


Julie's pattern calls for a linen or linen/cotton yarn. A perfect example that Verb stocks is Classic Elite's Allegoro, which is a blend of organic cotton and linen. The dyes used on Allegoro are all certified non-toxic.

Verb has several other colors of Allegoro. Come in and check them out, along with Julie's other patterns!
