Gift A Long Saturday Spotlight: Nashwa Sakr
The Indie Designer Gift A Long is underway on Ravelry and you can follow along on Instagram, as well. This year I am highlighting some of the designers on my blog, as well as in my Instagram feed.
My last designer is Nashwa Sakr. She is a designer from Doha, Qatar. Her patterns can be found on Ravelry. I happen to know that her patterns are all 25% off through the end of the day GMT, December 29, 2024.
Her designs are classic, lovely, and full of timeless details that will make them heirlooms. These patterns are so much like vintage knitwear, but usually not knit at the same tiny gauge. She makes such a good use of modern yarns.
Polar Coat (In Infant and Junior sizes).
Miss Orchid Romper (From Infant to 6 years old).
Crossandra Sweater (In Infant, Junior, and Adult sizes).
Diamond and Rose Cardigan (From Infant to 4 years old).
Biskrem Sweater (In Infant, Junior, and Adult sizes).
I love her work. In fact, I have one of those rompers planned for our little Peapod coming soon, and a Crossandra sweater planned for Amelia (to match another GAL project of gauntlet mitts I have made for her). If these patterns intrigue you, please take a look at her whole portfolio and find your own favorites.
