Breezy Fabric Choices

Dresses from left to right: 3.1 Phillip Lim silk pleated sleeveless dress, Eco Skin bamboo blend dress, and Rick Owens silk dress.

Accessories from left to right: Twisted Orchid bamboo tote, Gucci bamboo pumps, Christian Louboutin linen and crocodile pumps, and Raw Bags bamboo clutch.

I love how cool linen feels but hate the way it wrinkles. Cotton is always my perfect solution. Bamboo is also another perfect choice and is great for the environment. Silk feels amazing on the skin.

Lace Smocking - Fresh and Feminine

Flower trim tank featured in Vogue Knitting Spring/Summer 2008

If you purchased this issue of Vogue Knitting, you will want to view the smocking workshop that was not included in the issue, at the link above. This beautiful, feminine, and frilly tank is perfect for Spring. I could see this on a bridesmaid in a fresh Spring wedding.

Sensual Naturals - Yarn Suggestions

This bag is super cute and can transition from late winter to early spring, easily. Check out this free pattern at the Berroco website. (I love the model's coat in this photo.) :)

I'm so attracted to neutrals right now, which is strange with all the saturated colors on the runway. Maybe it's just the Spring season coming upon me that I am dying to be a part of. I'm so ready for winter to be over.

Camel, beige and taupe are sparking my interest at the moment.

Berroco has a few new yarns that I am interested in, such as NaturLin, and Linen Jeans, both consisting of rayon and linen. These yarns will be perfect for Spring and Summer knitting or crochet projects. NaturLin is a thicker yarn, but Linen Jeans is just as nice, and is an unusual tape type yarn, which will add variety to your hand made garments.
