What I love the most about Sandrasingh.com is assisting my clients. I have an unique opportunity to speak with fiber enthusiasts from all walks of life and from all parts of the globe and I've noticed we all have one thing in common, our delight in hand knitting for those we love, and this includes ourselves! Thank you for being a Sandrasingh.com customer, together let's celebrate the arrival of April's balmy weather with your joy for knitting and cast on one of these new light weight projects, you'll be wearing it by May.

In This Issue: Airy & Light Scarves by HeartStrings / Spring Maple / Cardis & Vests /

Airy & Light Scarves by HeartStrings
These two new designs by HeartStrings' are both knit in open and airy lace just right for gentle breezes. The Lacy Serpentine Scarf is knit side-to-side along its length in an amazingly easy pattern that looks more complicated than it really is.

And mesh knitting is popular right now, for a shorter look cast on the ascot-like scarf I Heart Filet Lace and wear a heart on your heart. The lace mesh looks like filet lace crochet or darned netting, but is actually knit. The boldly outlined hearts at each of end are set against the background of lace mesh and its knit in only 1 skein of Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sock.
