Free Pattern Friday – Stardust Top

The Stardust Top is one of those knits that feels special the second you slip it on. Designed by Yonca Ozbelli and knit in Constellation, it’s lightweight, airy, and effortlessly elegant. With its split back and lace patterning, this top has the perfect mix of comfort and style that makes handmade pieces so easy to wear and love.

What I love most about the Stardust Top is how versatile it is. It feels casual during the day and instantly more elevated at night with just a few accessories. Styled with tailored trousers or a silky midi skirt, it has that soft, polished look that works perfectly for summer dinners and warm evenings out. 

Constellation yarn makes this piece feel even more special. This fine chainette yarn is soft and airy with a subtle shimmer running through it. Organic cotton keeps it breathable and comfortable, while polyamide adds durability and helps the finished garment hold its shape over time. Metallic fibers bring a gentle glow that adds depth and sophistication to every stitch. It’s ideal for airy knit and crochet projects that feel relaxed, refined, and comfortable to wear.

If you’ve been wanting to cast on a summer knit, this is the perfect time. Constellation yarn is currently 20% off with no code needed through May 24th, making it even easier to start your own Stardust Top.

Yarn love, always,

Flash Pattern Friday – Entwined

There’s something magical about a sweater that feels like it’s telling a story, and Entwined does exactly that. Designed by Amy Gunderson, this striking asymmetric cable knit is worked in Deluxe Worsted Superwash. Winding, vine-like textures travel gracefully across the front and along one sleeve, creating movement and intrigue with every stitch.

Picture yourself wrapped in this piece during a peaceful sunrise walk along the coast, the soft ocean breeze brushing against the plush warmth of Deluxe Worsted Superwash. The gentle rhythm of the waves pairs perfectly with the soothing cadence of knit stitches, making this pullover not just something you wear, but something you experience.

Drawing inspiration from nature’s quiet persistence, the cables wind and curve like climbing vines, set against smooth stockinette on the opposite sleeve and the tunic-length back. This contrast creates a look that feels fresh and modern while still grounded and organic, blending eye-catching detail with everyday comfort.

You can cast on your own Entwined sweater today. Download the flash pattern for free on Ravelry using code ‘FLASH’, then choose your favorite shades of Deluxe Worsted Superwash yarn and enjoy 20% off with no code needed. It is the perfect opportunity to start a project that feels both relaxing and rewarding, whether you are knitting at home or dreaming of your next seaside morning wrapped in something handmade.

Yarn love, always,
