First, Antrea, which was the May shipment for Club Dragonfly:
This shipment included TWO skeins of Dragon Sock, which was enough to make this very large cowl and have quite a bit left over. The cowl can be pulled down over your shoulders like a cape if you're chilly:
Second, Karelia. It's my first DRESS pattern, although I think of it as a tunic to be worn over jeans or leggings. My sister was nice enough to model it for me:
It's knit in one piece from the top down, so you can stop knitting whenever you like and have a top, a short tunic, or a full-on dress. I used Pixie in Black is Black (yoke) and Firecraker (body).
Third, a new mystery KAL called 5, inspired by Jasper Johns and Bauhaus weaving.
Easy, modular, colorblocking. The first clue will be released on June 24. You can get kits here (I chose the four combinations with the help of Dragonfly color experts), or purchase the pattern only and use any five colors of fingering-weight yarn; you'll need about 230 yards of each.
Obviously I love Dragonfly yarn and have been knitting my way through miles of it.
What's next? How about this? Chevrons, cardigan, set-in sleeves.
