Spring knit and crochet magazines always seem to arrive just as winter is hitting its stride, an irony that strikes me every year. With a layer of wintry mix on the ground outside, I sit down to write about the newest in warm-weather knitting. Interweave Knits Spring 2015 is here!
Spring is a season of layering, when a chilly morning may turn into a warm, sunny day. Lightweight cardigans, tees, and shawls are common garments in this issue, reflecting our seasonal needs.
This shawl is made in the soft and lofty Shibui Maai, a chain-plied blend of merino and alpaca.
I also spotted a tutorial on knitted-on edgings, a handy guide for many shawls in this issue and beyond.
Look for Spring knitting inspiration at the shop, but if the weather’s iffy, check our website or Facebook page first; we post there if we have to close the shop due to inclement weather.
