"I am trying to open the pattern for "Sweetie Baby Knit Pixie" and get the message "Safari cannot find server". Is this my problem, Safari's problem, or Allfree's problem? Is there somewhere else I can find this pattern?"

"The materials list rather clearly states that you need Caron Big Donut OGo, in the quantities listed for each size. all available colours can be found near the bottom of the page here-https//www.yarnspirations.com/082021-blog-ogo == -introducing-caron-big-donut.html"

"In knitting you always follow stitch patterns consecutively, unless the pattern states otherwise. So, row 4 will be row 4, no matter where you are in the sequence. For example if it is a 23 row sequence, row 4 will be worked on rows 4, 8,12, 16, 20, for the repeat of the sequence you will do this as many times as the pattern instructs you to. This is how patterns are followed, not specific to this pattern since you mentioned starting the back and the instructions you are confused about and provided information that is not found in the back bodice instructions as published here. Hope this helps, happy knitting!"

"Thank you for the clarification. On the Caron website it said "Everything you need to make your new project is included in this kit!", so I did not investigate further, not only because I dislike the color combo but also because I am not particularly fond of knitting with acrylics. Usually I work with natural yarns and select color combinations according to my taste and wardrobe. -)"

"Hi I would love to knit this but when I try to open the pattern I get an error code."

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.
