Early this morning we all changed our clocks forward an hour (assuming you’re in a country that does that). I don’t know about you, but the time change always makes me feel a little groggy. So I thought it would be a fitting treat for folks to wake up to some beautiful knitting patterns to help take the sting off the time change.
The good thing about the time change is that we’re springing forward and I’m certainly looking forward to spring. I think that these beautiful patterns designed by Corrina Ferguson for the laceweight Findley Dappled line will put you in the spring mood too.
Findley Dappled 2013 Collection on Ravelry
Corrina knits and designs in Florida where there are only about three sweater days per year. But she keeps on knitting anyway and dreams of someday retiring somewhere where it snows. Corrina blogs at http://picnicknits.com/

There is a Chapman Shawl that is a part of the collection that is currently being test knit by the talented, fast, and lovely Deb Terrio. Once it’s done and photographed, we’ll be releasing it as a free pattern on the website. We’ll make an announcement when that happens! Here’s a sneak peek of the WIP (Work in Progress), to hold you over. It’s knit from side to side and is not yet half way finished.
