Hi,
I recently put in an order for a great book packed to the top with stunning patterns inspired by trees and foliage: Botanical Knits. Alana Dakos is a true knitting genius for coming up with all of these beautiful designs!! Click on the link above to look at the website and see the patterns, trust me; you will be amazed. :)
My favorite pattern in Botanical Knits is either Buds and Blooms or Oak Trail. Once the book arrives at my house I will choose to knit one of these first. Which one should it be? Let me know in the comments!

Other than placing the order for the Botanical Knits book I have made a few changes around the blog. Along with a font change I have also designed a brand new banner! Why?- because I felt that the other banner used too high contrasting colors, and it was a bit sketchy. I hope you like the new banner, let me know what you think!

I am terribly in love with these patterns! you are a very lucky person Emily!
ReplyDeleteIt's hard not to love these patterns, they are all so lovely :)
DeleteThe patterns in this book are truly beautiful. If I had your knitting skills Emily, I would choose Autumn's End and Twin Leaf Loop. By the way. I do like your new banner. Does it seem a bit higher on the right to you? Hope that you are having a good knitting week so far...I am getting closer to decreasing on the hat! scary
ReplyDeleteAutumns end is very pretty, the lace leaves are lovely but a bit too tricky for me! :) I have noticed that the banner is crooked, and I will hopefully find some time to fix that up! Let me know when you need help on your hat!
DeleteI love the new look, Emily!! Yay for you!!! BTW, those patterns are stunning! :D
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you like the new look! :) i can't wait for the pattern book to arrive, then I will really busy knittin! ;D
