EDITOR'S NOTE

Ready or not, summer is coming!

The season may include vacations at the beach, romantic evenings, quiet times reading the latest fiction or having time to knit your latest creation. This issue is packed with items to inspire you!

Have you ever seen a stitch or direction you didn't recognize, so decided not to try the pattern? Learning new tricks to make our projects look as beautiful as possible stimulates creativity! Beth Whiteside demonstrates a technique in Casting On. The Knitted Cast On and Picot Edge are both featured in the Take It Easy Tee, a sure winner for summer.

Tempted by Beaded Knitting? Scarlet Taylor has tips to help you get started and relates how she began designing.

Our Summertime Spa Cloth demonstrates SSK. This one technique can make your knitting look more "hand knit" than "homemade."

Go on the flip side with Triple Options, three pieces to mix and match!

Head for the beach! The Seaside Tunic and Bag are lacy ways to cover it up and take it with you.

The Buckled-Up Wrap is just the bit of warmth to ward off the evening breezes while enjoying the fireworks.

Until we meet again, Knit On!
