Feel Good Friday… Rebecca is loving lace knitting and was up for a challenge with this beautiful piece.
Made in Noro Sonata shade 55 it falls softly and is the perfect weight for spring knitwear.
A 12 row pattern repeat with alternating purl rows kept Rebecca’s interest while creating such a unique fabric.
At first glance, many think it is crocheted due to the open work lace. Pattern comes in 2 sizes and takes 3 skeins of Noro Sonata
S/M measures 100cm
L/XL measures 118cm
Free pattern with yarn purchase from The Wool Inn.
Order Noro Sonata online or by calling the shop on 02 47322201. Availability of shades is shown here https://www.the-wool-inn.com.au/shop/index.php?main_page=index&zenid=8739vnisjp1hsj0454r759f085&manufacturers_id=21&sort=20a&filter_id=1241&alpha_filter_id=0

Feel Good Friday...is making your own handmade garment for a special occasion.
Bettina crocheted this gorgeous poncho for her brother's waterside wedding last weekend. They enjoyed lovely warm weather and the poncho was formal enough over a dress with sandals.
It was also a great talking point as other crafters marvelled at the colour changing yarn used so cleverly in the small motifs.
Bettina trusted the Noro yarn spinners amazing colour combination and resisted controlling the motif placement.
The picot edging surrounds the body, a tasseled drawstring gathers the neck and tasselled ties join the sides.
If you have ever made a garment for a special occasion we would love you to share in the comments

Yarn: Noro Yukata

Feel good Friday…we love to see skills bloom like the gorgeous Rosie Sweater by Le Knit.
Mira learnt stranded colourwork as well as a new garment top down construction. Wanting to get the best possible finish, Mira patiently frogged her work in progress until she had the two handed colourwork perfected. Such a stunning garment, it needed to be worn out on a special occasion.
The garment is worked in a strand of 4ply Fiori sock held with a strand of laceweight mohair together.
Sizes XXS to 5XL, available for digital purchase from Ravelry.
We have endless colour combinations for the garment and are happy to guide you through your colour choices.
