Greenway Afghan...Phoebe's Sweater

Greenway Afghan

Color therapists tout green as the most restful color. With that in mind we aimed for the ultimate in restfulness with this afghan, combining four shades of green with a neutral. Two rows of crocheted cluster stitch combine to form pretty, daisy-shaped blocks of color, with each daisy fitting neatly into the next.

This free pattern is also available in the new afghan book Comfort Knitting & Crochet Afghans by the Berrocco Design Team which we have in the shop.  This afghan is knit from Berroco Comfort.

I found this sweet project in Ravelry this morning and couldn't resist sharing.

Creating Your Own Designs

Here are Sam's.... gorgoeus Bodacious iphone Mittens.   She used Online Linie 3 Supersocke Silk in purple purchased at the shop.

Here's what she says on Ravelry to describe them...

My daughter was complaining that she has to remove her mittens to use her iphone so I am making fingerless gloves with a mitten flap for her. I used the cuff and directions for the cuff from the Mini-mochi Ringed Cuff mitten, found directions for fingerless gloves and picked up stitches around the back, did a cable cast on for the stitches across the palm. They came out great and she was very happy with them.

There is a group on Ravelry called Designers that encourages experienced designers, new designers and wannabe designers.  Check it out for encouragement, ideas and a peek inside the process.

Look at The Craft Yarn Council for a chart on standard abbreviations on Knit Chart Symbols.  


We will be featuring designs created by our designers as well as customer creations.  Stay tuned....
