Summerblossom
Introducing Summerblossom, a delightful bonus knitting pattern from the Leaf Cycle Collection, created in celebration of the vibrant leafy KAL hosted by the Nimble Knits group throughout May 2015. This stunning design is a beautiful variation of the popular Summerleaf pattern, featuring an elegantly adapted edging inspired by Blossomleaf. Summerblossom maintains the same exquisite leaf motif and graceful crescent shape found in its predecessors, but it shines with a lighter, more airy edging that is perfect for summer.
When crafted from lace weight yarn or soft cotton, Summerblossom is an ideal accessory for protecting delicate shoulders from the hot summer sun. Yet, its versatility shines through, as this pattern can also be knitted in a heavier weight yarn for those cooler months, ensuring you stay warm and cozy.
This adaptable pattern allows you to extend both the leaves and the edging to any desired size, making it customizable for any occasion. Whether you have lace, sport weight, or even heavier yarn, Summerblossom accommodates a wide range of yardage and styles, allowing for creative expression. Additionally, you can choose to incorporate beads for a touch of sparkle or stick with a classic look by omitting them altogether.
All pattern rows are worked on the right side only, creating a straightforward and enjoyable knitting experience. Summerblossom can be followed easily either through the comprehensive written pattern or the included charts, providing options for knitters of all skill levels. Embrace the beauty of nature and the warmth of summer with this exquisite knitting pattern that is sure to become a favourite in your collection!
