September 21, 2016 2 Comments

Looking for something to knit? Here are ten of the best knitting patterns from independent designers, fall 2016.

It’s fall so things are getting SERIOUS in the knitting world. There are gorgeous new patterns being released practically every day from independent designers. How to choose what to cast on from among all of theses stunners? Allow me to humbly offer up the ten knitting patterns that have particularly caught my eye this month. Even if this just narrows it down to an eenie, meenie, miney, mo decision, that’s at least a little bit fewer to miney among, right? The what-to-cast-on struggle is real come fall. This list should help narrow things down (a bit)!

    What a lovely group! I’m thinking that there must be some serious competition if all these are the results of an eeny meeny (no, autocorrect, not enemy menu!?!)
    Thank you for the inspiration. I’m eying the spotted cowl (and its companion piece, the splat hat)
