Not one but two trunk shows at My Sister Knits!
My Sister Knits has not one but two trunk shows for you to pore over!In 2013, Alana Dakos of Never Not Knitting published Botanical Knits, a book of 12 patterns inspired by the beauty of plant life. The next year Botanical Knits 2 came out with another 12 patterns. Now Alana has given us Baby Botanicals, five darling child sized sweaters that go with the adult ones.Samples of these sweaters for little girls, sized 6 months to 12 years, are at My Sister Knits until July 22nd.Alana's patterns are well written; the schematics are detailed, the instructions are written out as well as charted, and the details that make these designs so special are well thought out. As an example, be sure to check out the charming pockets on the Little Buds cardi when you come to the shop! The cables on the back of Baby Branches and Little Buds are not to be missed either!These dear little sweaters are made with light fingering, fingering, and sport weight yarns.We also have the Swoon Maine trunk show! Assembled by Carrie Bostick Hoge, this collection is an homage to Maine, as the name suggests. Carrie designed the bulk of the patterns with guest appearances by Maine designers Cecily Glowik MacDonald, Leila Raabe, and Mary Jane Mucklestone.Pullovers, cardigans for young and old, cowls, a hat, and mittens have made their way to My Sister Knits! These patterns suit an array of knitters who like to knit with weights from fingering to aran.These two trunk shows are on display until July 22nd. We invite you to come in, try on, and play with these exquisite knits! We are located at 1408 W. Mountain Ave in Fort Collins, Colorado.Comment below on whether you have a favorite yarn weight to knit with or if you are an all weights knitter!
