Hiking Henley, by Melissa Leapman. A classy and comfy henley style t-shirt, also with plus size options. With a gauge of 5 stitches to the inch, most DK or light worsted yarns will look great.
Dakini Sweater, by Kristen TenDyke. A great design, with plus size options, perfect in your favorite sport weight yarn. Try it in Jo Sharp Mulberry Silk Georgette Yarn or
Swans Island Organic Merino Ecowash Sport Yarn.
Drop Stitch Stripes Pullover, by Jennifer Owens. The easy lace pattern created from dropped stitches lets a self-striping yarn like [Sorry, item discontinued or temporarily out of stock] shine, and the sleek mercerized cotton is perfect as you get ready for summer.

[Sorry, item discontinued or temporarily out of stock] is a seasonal showcase of the most current designs and styles in luxurious yarns.
Cambridge Poncho, by Andrea Babb, is knit in the extra luxurious Acadia by The Fibre Company Yarn.
The Park Slope Top, by Mary Anne Benedetto, would be stunning in the Herriot Fine Alpaca by Juniper Moon Farm Yarn, which has great yardage and would drape beautifully in this dolman shape.
The Falmouth Cardigan, by Kate Gagnon Osborn, is a boxy tweedy style that would go anywhere year-round. We’d try it in the Jo Sharp Silkroad Aran Tweed Yarn for plenty of softness and rustic tweed colors.
For those of you looking to advance your finishing techniques Knit.Wear also presents a great tutorial from Larissa Gibson, on the Chain Selvedge, which will give your pieces a nicely finished and versatile edge.

A couple of cotton favorites from [Sorry, item discontinued or temporarily out of stock] :
The Girl’s Jumper and Boy’s Overalls by Audrey Drysdale are easy and adorable in just garter and stockinette stitch. Both are in one of our favorite year-round yarns: Cotton Fleece Yarn is a washable, durable blend of 80% cotton, 20% merino.
Sandy Prosser’s pretty Pillow Trio looks great in a sleek cotton, like Cascade Ultra Pima Cotton Yarn.
