Yipes-Stripes!

Lately I have been starting a lot of projects, but not a whole lot of finishing.  Sometimes it feels great to start a much anticipated project, and another, and another, and another.  You get the picture.  Sometimes it's nice to knit for knit's sake.

I have been knitting many warm season items, and will get some of them done in time to enjoy.  I have particularly been in love with stripes.  They are easy and very satisfying to knit.  There are many popular patterns to support the stripes craze.

What's on my needles:

1.  Featherweight Cardigan by Knitbot http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/featherweight-cardigan


2.  Daybreak by Stephen West http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/daybreak



3.  Spring Garden Tee by Alana Dakos  http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/spring-garden-tee


4.  Baby Sorbet Beret by Knitterlydesigns (my personal design to be available for download soon)
    Made this quick little hat and matching booties for a baby shower gift.  I will be sizing this for different ages and publish as a PDF to be available soon.  This is a super quick knit!




This is a free pattern.

6.  Autumn Vines Beret by Alana Dakos  http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/autumn-vines-beret

What is your favorite stripey project?
