Anyone who doesn’t think spring and summer are great times to knit is missing out! Cast on one of these beautiful late spring shawls and sweaters to keep knitting all summer long. These are just a sampling of my favorite new patterns, but if none of these float your boat, you can check out my knitting board on Pinterest for a look at the patterns that didn’t quite make this list and to find inspiration in real time.

    Where can I find the patterns to the garments on the page saying “10 things to knit”? Specifically I am interested in the tee shirt and sweater.
