Apr 24, 2015 Spring Forward with Plucky is LIVE Today is the day! Spring Forward is LIVE!!! Another gorgeous collection of fun, approachable and wearable knits from The Plucky Knitter! There are 18 beautiful knits in this book and I'm very proud to say that I designed 4 of them - one of which is modeled here on the cover! On the cover is my Beehive infinity scarf and let me tell you, is a FUN knit! Knit in Plucky Crew for a DK version or in Plucky Oxford for a fingering weight option, picking a two color combo is half the fun. Make it more sophisticated in neutrals or make it snappy with brights. Either way, I must say I love this knit. AND it looks way more complicated than it is. You are only knitting with one color pre row. Gotta love slipped stitches! And why not make a mini version with your left over your yarn for your dog, right? Beehive Ox comes as a bonus pattern, bundled with Beehive - two patterns for one! Isn't Ox is cute as ever :) Next up is my Beach Walk shrug. I do love this shrug and knit up in Plucky Crew is it a wearable knit with a beautiful drape perfect for spring and summer. This is a great piece to throw on for some extra warmth and coziness and it's stylish to boot! I'm need to make another one for myself STAT Of course I couldn't be a part of this collection and not have a colorwork design, right? I feel like my colorwork, infinity scarves are my signature design style and I love how this one turned out! I approached the graphics a little different this time, splitting the scarf in two and coming up with two different but cohesive graphics for each side. I think the name Riptide is perfect for the two opposing wave graphics and knit with Plucky Sophistate held double, this knit is a dream! For more information on my patterns please visit my Ravlery Shop. And you simply must go to THIS LINK to see the whole Spring Forward collection. You and your needles will be very happy you did!
