"I would love to knit this, but I don't know a man who would wear it. I love that classic, almost formal look but the styles (at least of the men I know) tend to be much more relaxed unless they're in business suits. We have lost something along the way!"

"I still can't get it!! Page says URL prohibited!!! I really want this because my daughter had one of each together as pets and they loved each other!! The bunny passed and her work took her away so she found a good farm for the duck to go live!! She misses them both,sorely!!"

"Such a classic sweater top. Love the color combinations as they as perfect colors for this Spring. The instructions are easy to follow and they also include an enlarged stitching graph. Several others have commented that they do not see a picture of this sweater, but I can see it with no problems."
Hippie Chick
"This top is perfect for a fancy dinner date or hitting a club with friends. It has a fitted body that flows smoothly up to a high neck collar that buttons in the back. It has delicate lace on the front that adds to the soft femininity. The smooth back adds a conservative contrast to the lacy front."

Knowing what types of patterns to knit for children can be challenging.  Trying to find stylish summer patterns for kids adds even more to the struggle.  With this beautiful collection of 32 light weight, summer patterns, author Kristi Porter makes it look all-so-easy.  Inside this charming book you will find stunning photography mixed with various designs for children sizes 2-12. 

 

From cute hats, to knit shorts and lacey tanks and sweaters, this book has a great selection of patterns for both boys and girls alike.  The adorable Carry-All Caddie Bag on pg. 25 is so gorgeous and handy, I might just have to make one for myself.  Constructed with a simple, all-over pattern and colorful i-cord handles, this bag would make a great summer accessory for both children and adults. 

 

Besides the lovely patterns included in this book, you will also find a useful chart with defined knitting abbreviations in addition to short, illustrated tutorials for selective special knitting techniques that are included in some of the patterns.  So if you are searching for an extensive group of patterns to make for children this summer, or if you live in a place that's warm year-round, More Knitting in the Sun: 32 Patterns to Knit for Kids, would be a great book to add to your library.
