Romantic Ensembles





To get this look, shop for pieces that are airy and feminine, in pastel hues. White or beige shoes with open work or straps like these work well. Layer on a chunky knitted cardigan for coziness and warmth. A beautiful pair of gold earrings would compliment it nicely.






Rose Hand Knit Open Crop Cable Jumper, $100
BANK Fashion - Kitsch Couture I Love ?? T-Shirt, 15 GBP
UNGER Fashion - Straight Leg-Jeans 'Billy' Blue - 29/34 - 30/34, 269 EUR
Maison Martin Margiela Leather Sequin Heel from Mrs H
Jessica Simpson Karma Hobo, $78


This is a soft, casual look that can be achieved with a regular soft tee you have at home, a handmade pullover sweater, and a pair of your oldest, best fitting jeans. Add some brown boots and a floral hobo, and you're good to go.

Both of these outfits would be nice and sensual for your special date with your Valentine.

3 Way Cowl Free Pattern



The reason this cowl is named "3 Way" is because it can be worn three ways. You can wear it lifted up and open as shown in the image above, folded in half, or up and turned around so it looks like it is closed all the way up the neck. Yarnmarket has some great free pattern PDF downloads for you right now.

"The concept of knitting in design brings the designer, and the wearer, back to the basics of garment construction and production. It enables us to dig deeper into our creative ways of thinking, thus creating better, more interesting works."
"I remember receiving a children's fashion designer kit from my grandparents, on my father's side, when I was about seven years old, which I loved. This small token of love helped harness my passion as a young girl. This is what started and sparked my first curiosities in the needle arts and craft."
