Frankie

Petiteknit has a new pattern - this is the Frankie Sweater (pattern purchased on Ravelry). This looks like a nice cozy sweater. Mette has posted pictures of Instagram and I’ve been watching for the pattern.
The Frankie Sweater is worked from the top down with raglan increases on the yoke. Short rows are worked along the back of the neck to shape the neckline. The sleeves are worked in the round on double-pointed needles or on a circular needle. The Frankie Sweater is worked with narrow stripes.

Frankie is knit with DK weight yarn. Here are some suggestions.

  • Estelle Superwash DK
  • Rowan Felted Tweed
  • The Fibre Co. Arranmore Light
  • Juniper Moon Patagonia


Lynn was with me today and she unpacked a lot of boxes and filled the shelves. As she was filling the shelves I updated the website.
  • Addi needles are restocked
  • Cascade 220 Heathers
  • Cascade 220 Superwash
  • Malabrigo Rios, Washted, Sock and Ultimate Sock
  • Rowan Felted Tweed restock - not the new colours
  • Cascade 220 Heathers, Cascade 220 and Cascade Eco
Every time she would tell me she was finished something I found another box for her to unpack. There is one more new yarn that I will blog about tomorrow. It’s almost time to close the store and then I’m going to have my hair cut. Dad, Beth and the dogs just arrived at the cottage. They are there until Monday afternoon so I have a few days of quiet.
