Light and Airy Knit Patterns You'll Love

Delicate lace designs are a pretty and trendy addition to your summer wardrobe. [ILK Weekly]( July 12, 2021  [5 Lace Patterns, Light as a Summer Breeze]( You'll find a lacy tee, cardigan, scarf, and more in our lace collection. [Lace Collection]( Ready to wrap yourself in lace? Our dynamic collection of lace patterns will fulfill your desires—part of your I Like Knitting Gold membership! Dear Knitting Superstar, Lace never goes out of style. It goes with everything, from a pair of jeans to a maxi sundress, from a day at the beach to an evening date. Modern fashion loves a touch of lace, and there’s a lace stitch and pattern for every knitter to love. Knitted lace is a pleasure to work and to wear. The stitch patterns mesmerize, the garments and accessories feel light and airy. Lace garments are just the thing for a breezy spring day or a cool summer night. Now that summer is around the corner, it’s time to knit new lace patterns! You can start with [The Lace Collection: 5 Lighter than Air Designs](. In this collection, you’ll find a mix of Intermediate and Advanced designs, each one a delight to make and wear: a shawlette, tee, tunic, cardigan, and scarf. Not only will you get these five designs, but there are also 700 + patterns waiting for you in the I Like Knitting library, where you’ll find everything from home decor to stunning scarves to beautiful tops for every season and so much more. [Daydreaming in Colors Scalloped Shawlette]( Cascading scallops What’s a ‘shawlette’? A shawl that barely covers the shoulders—just enough to keep the chill off. This modern take looks modern and flirty. Wear the [Daydreaming in Colors Scalloped Shawlette]( over a spaghetti-strapped maxi dress at a wedding or with a sundress at lunch al fresco. With this intermediate pattern, you work the scallops separately in different colors and then join them with another row of scallops to create a graceful edging. Later, you pick up stitches at the straight edge and work them in a crescent shape creating this wonderful shawlette’s drape. [Cherry Blossom Lace Tee]( You'll blossom in this tee Like cherry blossoms gently dancing in the air, the [Cherry Blossom Lace Tee]( lays lightly on your body. The lacework is just open enough to feel airy, but not so much that it’s see-through. Pair it with a white denim skirt, shorts, or, well, anything—this openwork top is so soft and versatile you’ll want to wear it every day. The top is worked in the Fern Lace stitch—a beautiful stitch that creates the appearance of interlocking ferns. We show it cropped, but this intermediate pattern can be worked as long or short as you like. Feel free to adjust as you like. [Water's Edge Tunic3]( Tunic surprise The elegant and flattering [Water’s Edge Tunic]( looks lovely and demure from the front but turns dramatic in the back. When you turn around, the tunic reveals a deep V-neckline. The undulating hem of the tunic emulates ocean waves lapping the shore. The detail on the waistband, sleeves, and neckline resembles the crest of the waves—or maybe a mermaid’s braided chain? This advanced tunic pattern is knit in the round with set-in sleeves. The pattern incorporates the Roman Stripe stitch—a combination of garter stitch, stockinette, and openwork—as well as the Kitchener stitch. The beautiful tunic would look just as beautiful with a pair of white jeans and tennies as a maxi skirt and strappy sandals. [Feeling Peachy Lace Cardigan]( Cute Cardi Packing for a weekend away? Be sure to take the [Just Peachy Lace Cardigan]( along. You’ll wear it everywhere from outdoor dining and sight-seeing to indoors at the movies or a museum where the air conditioning is set on chill. During the week this cardi serves as the perfect summer work jacket. The body of this intermediate pattern is made up of openwork and narrow panels, while the lower border and sleeves feature twisted stitches and openwork. This garment uses unit construction, which means each piece is finished as much as possible (bands, seams, etc.) before moving on to the next major piece. This eliminates much of the finishing work at the end—yay! [Island Fern Lace Scarf]( Botanical Beauty Here’s a lace scarf pattern with all the delicacy of a freshly unfurled fern. The [Island Fern Scarf]( will accessorize your summer looks perfectly plus add a bit of comfort when salty breezes blow. The light, lacy scarf design has an organic lace pattern that looks different—but equally beautiful on each side. This intermediate pattern is quick and easy to work up. You’ll definitely want the charming Island Fern Scarf in your summer wardrobe. Don't forget, as well, that this and every pattern in I Like Knitting comes complete with: - A list of necessary yarn and tools you'll need - Row-by-row instructions - Special stitch instructions - Pattern notes - Detailed, full-color photography.
