One of my favorite parts about spring is being able to wear drapey fabrics, airy knits, and beautiful, flowing tops. This laid back, casual style is one of my favorite ways to dress. With April being just four days away (can you believe it?) I got inspired to comb through AllFreeKnitting for some of my favorite “cool girl” knitting patterns. You’ll love this effortlessly chic collection of slouchy knit hat patterns, breezy knit top patterns, and lightweight scarves.

Fifty Shades of Linen Top – Step out in this easy breezy knit linen top. The flowing fit is flattering on a variety of body types. You’ll love the way the sleeves and hem of this chic top flutter in the wind.
Simple Vanilla Hat – The Simple Vanilla Hat is the quintessential laid back knit beanie pattern. Its slouchy fit and airy construction will have you sending fee-good vibes to everyone you meet.
Loop Scarf – Simplicity is key for looking effortlessly cool, so why not whip up this basic knit infinity scarf for an easy finishing touch? We love the warm honey hue of the Loop Scarf, but any other spring color would be a stylish addition to your wardrobe.

Utilitarian, classic
oh dear…i’m a stay at home mom, workout clothes, comfy clothes. i do love to get dressed up for special occasions, usually ask my sisters for fashion advice 😉
Casual and practical!
Classic and casual! I love to live in jeans and very casual tops when I can. But will upscale to a classic look when I need to…ie. dinners, meetings.
My style is very eclectic. Comfort is #1.
Eclectic, bohemian, hippie? I have arthritis and fibromyalgia so whatever is relatively professional and comfortable at the same time.
My clothing style vacillates between boho and business casual. It’s weird, but it keeps things interesting.
soft and comfy with casual style
Casual and classic generally, somewhat Bohemian at times, and, dressed up, classic chic.
Comfortable flowy black
Classic, timeless, & not trendy but suitable to my tastes.
My style is casual and comfortable, thanks!
Basic, interchangeable pieces accented with unusual accessories or handmade jewelry.
Classic and comfortable.
yoga pants, tank tops, and fingerless gloves year-round
Easy ,breezy, classic, most of all comfortable.
I would call my clothing style fierce and dramatic.
Casual and classic, and when I need to dress it up it is classy not frilly.
Jeans, tanks, sweaters. Comfort first! I’m not so much a fashion diva 🙂
