This little project creates a colourful decorative lace edging on any tag. Designer Emma Leith's personal favourite is the Lilac Mist tag – the pink and yellow French knots are bright and zingy, making them pop out beautifully.
Using a green eyelash yarn you can create a mini lawn to run down the middle of your Easter table. Dotted with primroses, which are made and sewn on separately, it could even make you believe you are having the first picnic of the year!
This textured cardigan from Baby and Toddler Knits is knitted in a cashmere mix in a soft, dusky pink. The bobble and cable pattern is echoed in the neat garter stitch borders with bobble detailing.
These little baubles from Mindful Crochet make the perfect Christmas gift to give to the people we love and value in our lives. The French knot is a wonderful embellishment – and if you have yet to master it watch out, because once you do you will be placing them on everything!
Is it a mitten? Is it a glove puppet? It’s a little bit of both, of course. These mousey mitts make it as easy as pie to persuade little ones to put on their gloves when the mercury dips, so you won’t hear complaints about freezing little fingers. I’ve chosen to knit these mice in off-white—but I think little mice in gray, or in pastel shades of pink or blue, would be just as cute. So take your pick.
