Web-Letter, Issue 136 – Spring 2010 Pattern Collection Classic Elite's Spring 2010 collection has been in yarn stores for a little while now. If you haven't yet seen the new patterns, take a look in the booklets below. Our website also shows bonus photos for all projects in the new spring booklets. The Picnic booklet features the newest yarns—linen and viscose blend Firefly, and 100% organic cotton Katydid. One of the most popular pieces from the spring collection, thus far, is the Firefly fringed scarf from Picnic. The drape of the yarn and the fun fringe combine for a great summer accessory. Spring knit alongs are going strong and many knitters are documenting their progress and sharing tips and modifications on Ravelry as they knit. Not on Ravelry yet? It's easy and free to join.

The Story: After all of the work that goes into putting a collection together, it is always rewarding for us to see the beautiful garments that knitters work up using our patterns and yarns. Therefore, this week, wev'e decided to go into Ravelry to see how knitters are interpreting our Spring 2010 collection. Here's a peak at some of the beautiful pieces that Ravelers have knit up.
