Adorable Knitted Lingerie!

by

I am super excited to announce that I have a new knitting pattern up called “Bow-dacious Bikini”, a sparkly knitted bra and panty pattern that it super cute!  It features a ruffle on the bottom band of the bra and on the sides of the panty, and bow details on the backside.  It is knit using Vanna’s Glamour, a very gilttery yarn, so it sparkles!  I also love the flirty keyhole in the back of the panty!  I hope you are as excited as I am, if you wanted a Valentine’s Day knitting project, this is perfect! ♥  You can get the pattern on Ravelry here.

Knitting Photoshoot Mood Board

by

When I photographed my first collection of knitwear designs for girlyknits.com, I thought it would be a good idea to create a mood board to set a feeling for the shoot.  I came up with this one, and while the shoot didn’t totally reflect the mood of this board, I still really love it!  It brings out the sensual and romantic aspect of knitting, don’t you think?

Trend Alert! Knitted Owls!

Has anyone else been seeing cute little knitted owls everywhere?  When I was out Christmas shopping I couldn’t help noticing the trend!  These ear muffs are especially cute!!

The trend is definitely apparent on Ravelry too, here are a few of my favorite owl knitting patterns, and they’re free!  I also have my very own owl hat design here and owl purse design here 🙂
