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!

Finally the Bruch Anyone? sweater pattern has been released!
The Brunch Anyone? sweater is a very boxy, loose fitting sweater that flatters many different shapes.
It’s a cropped sweater that features 3/4 length sleeves and a boat neckline.
Knit with US size 9 circular needles (to hold the stitches only as the piece is knit flat) using approximately 1000 yards of acrylic DK weight yarn (also known as #3 or light weight). I used Stylecraft Special DK in Khaki.
Available in my Etsy shop and over at loveknitting.com.
This pattern is beginner friendly, but if you need help, I’m always here to answer any questions you may have!
HAPPY KNITTING!

I hope everyone has an amazing weekend!
Happy knitting.

Hello everyone!
I’m thrilled to let you know my Summer Breeze Bolero pattern is now available!
Head on over to lovecrafts.com and get your copy for FREE!
And a huge thank you to Paintbox Yarns for the yarn support! Their Cotton DK yarn was wonderful to work with.
This is an intermediate pattern involving yarn overs, slipped stitches and passing slipped stitches over, however, I made a little video showing you how to do the more difficult stitches, so I suggest you give it a try even if you’re a beginner knitter! I really hope you do!
Now off to finish up other patterns I’ve only half completed! LOL! Have a great day everyone.
Happy knitting!

The Summer Breeze Bolero is done!
I’ll be writing the pattern in the next week or so and it will be available on lovecrafts.com in plenty of time for the summer!
Thank you Paint Box Yarns for your support!
Now off to get this pattern written!

I’ve been unable to book a photo session for my pattern photo updates, so I’ve taken it into own hands! LOL!
I have to admit, it’s difficult getting creative when it’s just me, myself and I but I’m trying.
I did manage to get a few decent photos of my Demi Gloves and will be updating the photos in the pattern soon.
Off now to do some reading on how to have a successful selfie photo shoot!
Enjoy your day and happy knitting.

Hi everyone!
I’ve been working on a new spring knitting pattern using Paintbox Yarns Cotton DK in Robin’s Egg Blue. It’s such a beautiful colour and such a great name!
I don’t usually do lacey knits, but thought I would give it try.
Here’s a bit of a sneak peek. The front panels are almost done and I’ll be starting on the back this weekend.
Well off to keep working on this.
Have a great Saturday!
Happy knitting.

My Demi Gloves pattern re-do is now done.
The pattern will be staying the same so you can still purchase it, it just won’t have really nice photos. 😉
I’m going through some of the first patterns I wrote to update the photos but also the pattern itself if needed. I want to make sure my instructions are clear.
I still have a few more patterns to re-do, but also new patterns to write up, so it’ll be a busy year for me.
I’m hoping to book a photo session late Spring so I can get everything updated and published by Fall. That’s the plan anyway.
Well, I have a lot of knitting to do and it won’t get done on it’s own, so off I go.
Have a great weekend and happy knitting.
