Top Trends For The New Knitting Season

One of the biggest trends this season is beige. If you are open to embracing this look, why not start with Sian Brown’s stylish vest? Experienced knitters will love the shell effect stitch pattern. Plus, thrifty knitters will be pleased to know that this pattern is free from Let’s Knit.

Another fabulous option is this understated camisole. Perfect for the warmer weather, this garment will help you to feel as good as you look! The pattern was designed by the very talented Bristol Ivy and costs £4.61 from LoveKnitting.

If you suit stronger colours, you could always embrace the neon trend. A fab project that will help you to do just that is this vibrant sweater in Rico Essentials Cotton DK. The downloadable pattern costs £2.99 from LoveKnitting.

Alternatively, you could stay cool this summer in this beautiful eyelet vest top. Wear with shorts or a skirt to create the ultimate seasonal look! You can access the free pattern from Let’s Knit.

Another Let’s Knit pattern; this gorgeous garment is great for advancing your skills. What’s more, you will have the opportunity to wear living coral (Pantone’s colour of the year)!

We just can’t get enough of this triangle shawl! Although this pattern has been designed to use super bulky yarn, it can be adapted to use a fibre of any weight and to reach all sizes. Created by Taiga Hilliard Designs and published in Cashmere Junkie, this pattern is a free download from Ravelry.

Last but not least, we have the trend of wearing warm colours, otherwise known as “sun” colours. One brilliant option is this timeless lace shawl from Jan Henley. This pattern uses a delightful variegated yarn and is free from Let’s Knit.
