Elegantly Simple Step-by-Step Photo Tutorials

Hi {!name_fix} - How are you doing? Just a reminder to get your June KAL patterns if you haven't already, and to let you know of new articles on the site.

June's featured learn-and-knit-along in the Beyond BOBBOL 2014 Series focuses on charity knitting. For this KAL only, everyone can get a free charity knitting baby blanket pattern AND a free pattern outline for a smaller practice bookmark project. As an extra bonus, there are also special discount offers thru June 25 on the companion triangle shawl pattern. See the JUNE KAL PAGE for all the details and links.

This month's support articles so far:
- Easy 1-2-3 Pattern Outline for Elegantly Simple Bookmark. I hope you enjoy knitting this little bookmark as much as I do, and that it will get you off to a good start in practicing to make the larger baby blanket (if you want to).

- Elegantly Simple Feather and Fan Shetland Lace Feather and fan lace is popular because it looks complicated, but usually is easy to knit. For the Elegantly Simple KAL, we have both elegant and simple.

- Photo tutorials: Left Slanting Triple Decrease AND Right Slanting Triple Decrease
If you are a visual person, this step-by-step photo series is for you!

June Prize Giveaway
In keeping with the summer heat-up, June’s prize is a specially-prepared Red Hots Anklets Kit. Besides yarn and pattern to knit these fun socks, I've sweetened the deal with Red Hots candy and a lovely fluted candy bowl.

Since June is charity knitting focus month at KnitHeartStrings, you can also earn additional giveaway entries for each knitted item you donate to your choice of worthwhile cause. More details on the Prize Giveaway page.

Any questions? Just give me a shout-out. Happy knitting,
Jackie E-S / HeartStrings FiberArts
