The Asher Bonnet- Test Pattern for The Huntt Boutique

Image
I have been testing for the Huntt Boutique for several years!  Actually, I'm pretty sure that she was one of the first patterns I ever purchased for prop making!  Her bonnets are always spot on with size! It has been a while since I have tested for her and was excited that she allowed me to have a hand at this piece!  Her request for natural fibers really lit some excitement in me as well! If you are seeking to make some newborn props for your studio or local photographer... check out The Huntt Boutique. She is lovely to work with and is incredibly creative!

But so worth it!  The end result is just a beautiful piece that showcases a gorgeous texture! I knitted this up in a very soft alpaca.  It is light weight and I can't wait to see it on a baby!  Love the pattern and love the finished piece! Fiber spotlight: Indiecita DK 100% Luxurious

Mara Cowl- Test Pattern for TeaganandLu

The Mara Cowl  This cowl is perfection!  Perfect texture.  Super soft and squishy.   Trendy and versatile for this fall/winter look.  And, most importantly, very very quick and easy to knit!  Teagan & Lu is the designer for this gorgeous pattern. I will update this post once her pattern is LIVE. Please be sure to follow her page on FB and IG.   Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/search/top/?q=teagan%20and%20lu Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/teaganandlu/ Ravelry:  https://www.ravelry.com/designers/theresa-denham It was an absolute pleasure to get to test this.  It was our first collaboration. And I hope there will be many more!   From first glance, this cowl looks like a difficult project. It boasts a mock cable and can look a bit intimidating! However, the two row repeat in this pattern makes you feel super accomplished! I can't describe how quickly this knit up.  I was done in one sitting!  This makes it the perfect last minute gift.
