PATTERN RELEASE – Fall Rushes In Wrap

Diana Poirier

Exciting news! My new knitting pattern, the Fall Rushes In Wrap, is now available for purchase!

This cozy wrap is perfect for chilly morning walks or curling up with a book.

Versatile enough to be worn as a single layer or an extra layer outdoors, it’s crafted with an easy-to-follow eight-row pattern repeat.

The finished wrap measures 16″ wide X 76″ long, making it both elegant and practical for any wardrobe.

Head over to my Etsy shop or lovecrafts.com to get your copy today!

Happy knitting.

Toddler sweaters…

Diana Poirier

These toddler sweaters are all tagged and ready to be delivered! I made them for a friend’s twin grandsons.

I started them over 6 months ago and used measurements she gave me then, so I hope they will fit! 🤞

They were so fun and easy to knit. I saw a picture of a similar sweater and just created these based on that image. And using 2 strands of DK yarn held together makes them extra squishy and warm.

I hope everyone has a wonderful day!

Happy knitting!

Last blanket for a while…

Diana Poirier

I finished knitting this blanket on the weekend. It will be my last one for awhile as I start to focus again on pattern writing. 🙂

This weekend I also managed to take photos of the cardigan I just finished.

Now to get the pattern written. That’s the most time consuming part. 🙄

I’ve already started a couple of more projects I plan on writing patterns for and I have a ton of ideas swirling around in my head for more! LOL! If only I could knit as fast as I think up ideas!

So, off now to go and get my cardigan pattern written up. I’ve decided to name it “The Tata Cardigan” because it reminds me of a sweater my grandfather on my mother’s side used to wear. We called him “Tata”!

I hope you have a great week and you find some time to knit! 🧶

Cardigan knitting…

Diana Poirier

Well I finally picked up my cardigan again that I started earlier in the year, or maybe even last year!! 🤔 Lol. I’m not too sure really.

Anyways, I am writing the pattern for this one and am hoping to have it out in a few weeks so please stay tuned.

It is created using the garter stitch and knit in one piece and sewn together. It will have the option to add pockets too!

So off I go to get this finished. Only 21 more rows to go before I cast off!

Happy Sunday.

What have I been doing???

Diana Poirier

Knitting blankets!! LOTS and lots of blankets. LOL!

I do have a cardigan pattern I’m working on, and I’m hoping to get that out before the end of October, but please don’t hold me to that. 😁

If you want to keep up to date with Peartree Knitting, the best way to do that is by following me on Instagram at –  peartreeknitting. I post my going-ons regularly on there.

I hope everyone has been well and as busy knitting as I’ve been! 😊

Have a wonderful day.

Sharing a project…

Diana Poirier

A customer who downloaded my Hillside Baby Blanket sent me some photos of the finished blanket.

Isn’t it GORGEOUS? She used an aran weight yarn and knit using 2 strands of yarn at one time, instead of using a bulky weight yarn. She also wanted to make the blanket wider, so she cast on more stitches than the pattern called for.

If you’re looking to make your own Hillside Baby Blanket, you can grab your copy HERE!

Thank you for sharing your pictures Corrinne. It was so lovely to see your finished project.

I hope everyone has a great day and happy knitting.
