Lion Brand Tiger Lily Tank - Free Pattern using Cotton Bamboo

I received an email from Lion Brand Yarn today. Usually I open these emails, browse, and go away empty-handed. But today..... Lion Brand caught my attention with their new Tiger Lily Tank free pattern. Knit with Lion Brand® LB Collection^®Cotton Bamboo, it is a winner. Beautiful, simple, summery, and classic in shape and design.

Go Lion Brand!

Pinwheel Coasters - Free Knitting Pattern for Home and Hearth

The latest pattern on the Free Patterns page is for the Pinwheel Coasters. Get the pattern here.

The pattern makes use of short-row shaping and can be used for coasters, placemats, pillows or any other number of home items. Just increase or decrease the number of cast-on stitches in order to adjust the overall size of the finished piece.

I used Patons Silk Bamboo for the sample. The yarn is really soft and has a lovely sheen. Any DK weight (Light 3) or other yarn, for that matter, can be used with the pattern.

Enjoy!
