Knitter’s Spotlight: Sweet Tart Poncho by Aimee Alexander
“Twirliness” may not be a word, but it was a key requirement when Aimee Alexander knit the Sweet Tart Poncho for her 5-year-old daughter. She was so pleased with her design that she also knit a smaller version for her 2-year-old. Still, Aimee was surprised to receive a number of requests for an adult version… Continue reading Knitter’s Spotlight: Sweet Tart Poncho by Aimee Alexander
What to Knit: Ashley
If you're like me, you may have noticed the oversized sweater trend and thought, "I could never pull that off." Unfortunately, I sometimes "think" out loud. Norah overheard and was determined to prove me wrong. Last week, I got to spend an afternoon being personally styled by Norah (I know - I really have the best… Continue reading What to Knit: Ashley
Knitter’s Spotlight: Vintage Tops
I love browsing the recently finished projects in our Berroco Lovers forum. It’s fun to see which patterns others are making, but it’s also really interesting for me to see which yarns people favor for certain kinds of projects. Our Vintage yarn shows up in a variety of finished projects, but lately I’ve seen it… Continue reading Knitter’s Spotlight: Vintage Tops
Knitter’s Spotlight: Centre-Ville Dress and Cardigan by Nancy Eiseman
Nancy Eiseman must have creativity to spare. By day, she designs jacquard-woven fabrics that are used for upholstery. By night (or really, whenever she’s off the clock) she designs with her needles and yarn. Eiseman has been knitting since she was nine, but she says she’s become more focused in the last few years. She’s… Continue reading Knitter’s Spotlight: Centre-Ville Dress and Cardigan by Nancy Eiseman
Knitter’s Spotlight: Avi by Eileen Vito
Eileen Vito’s first knitting project went to the dogs. I mean that literally, of course. She knit sweaters for her two dogs. Unfortunately, both dogs gained weight and the sweaters got too tight. Eileen says she’s pretty sure this is just a coincidence and not a reflection of their feelings about her knitting! Either way,… Continue reading Knitter’s Spotlight: Avi by Eileen Vito

Knitter’s Spotlight: Kat Coat by JessieAtHome
When I was a little girl, I would have loved to have a knitted sweater coat like the ones Jessie Rayot made for her four-year-old twins. Okay, if I’m being totally honest I still want one as an adult! With beautiful colored panels, a full skirt for spinning and an adorable elfin hood, Rayot’s Kat… Continue reading Knitter’s Spotlight: Kat Coat by JessieAtHome
