Washcloths-various patterns. These are knit out of 1824 Cotton (maize) and Hemp6 (dk blue), but the bamboo yarns would also be great...especially since bamboo has a natural antibacterial/antifungal element to it. The Bathtime Blossoms pattern (shown in dark blue hemp) has 3 different patterns on it, each including directions for a circular washcloth and a soap cachet. The 1824 cotton and Honeycomb stitch patterns are easy to knit and make great kitchen cloths. Did you know that the most bacteria laden aspect of most kitchens is the sponge?

Eco-wool throw...my sister just knit this throw in 4 natural colors of the Eco-wool. It is a simple garter stitch, mitered square pattern that knit up quickly and it feels great! It could be done with just 4 skeins ($60).

Sublime & D. Bliss designs for summer tops

Sublime & Ella Rae designs for kids & babies

 

Extrafine merino baby cardigan. This sweet ruffled cardigan is shown in stripes in the pattern book, but looks just as sweet in a solid color. The pattern is in Sublime #2 for babies and the yarn is Sublime's extrafine merino.

Both of these lace cardigans can be knit in merino-kid which has just arrived in new colors for the spring. These sweaters make the perfect spring transitional sweater. Lightweight but warm...you don't feel any bulk, but the soft kid merino blends, with or without silk, are warm and cozy and perfect to take the chill off your shoulders. I find myself wearing these almost daily in the store now that the temperatures are approaching the usual damp and chilly springtime levels!
