The first official Stitch.Rock.Knit-along in partnership with Knit Simple Magazine has come to an end. I had a blast and I hope those of you who participated did too! Even if you weren't able to join in, you can still catch up - check out my recap of the event on the Caron Blog, where you'll find photos of fellow stitchers' projects, helpful shawl-shaping diagrams, and demo videos for the crocheted Fishnet Edging and knitted Picot Bind-off .

Stone Creek Scarf

This design is for those of you who requested projects that combine knit and crochet. Kim Guzman was thrilled to create the Stone Creek Scarf, which includes beautiful beads in the crochet motifs, in the Spa shade Green Sheen. The scarf is wide enough to double as a wrap when you need an extra layer of warmth.

Soft Stripes Throw

Tammy Hildebrand used three different pattern stitches to create the Soft Stripes Throw, crocheted in three colors of Simply Soft. This is the perfect take-it-anywhere project with nine strips of easy and fun pattern stitches. Make it in the soft colors seen here or choose your own palette.

Dad's Vest

Yes, it’s a few months before Father’s Day, but why not get a running start on knitting one of the most classic looks for Dad – the V-neck pullover vest. Dad’s Vest, designed by Ira Dearing, has evenly spaced 4-stitch cables throughout the front and stockinette stitch on the back. Made in Simply Soft in Grey Heather, Dad’s Vest is sure to be a soft and washable favorite for years to come.
