A diary for all my knitting and making
That hiking sweater
This post is the tale of that hiking sweater I was knitting in August, when I was getting ready for my first ever hiking and backpacking trip in Iceland. This post is also a bit about my new design Orgeat Sweater (aka the hiking sweater).
Milkshake Scarf
Milkshake Scarf features garter stitch, i-cord edging and super simple intarsia. Perfect little in-between knit while you think about the next big sweater project of yours.
Sticky Toffee
That dreamy autumn weather is here, with golden leaves all around us and frosty mornings that make us reach for an extra squishy and warm layer! This is the weather I'm dreaming about right now!
Säie Sweater
Today is all about Säie Sweater! If this doesn’t bring the sweater weather, autumn feel to me, I don’t know what will! It’s all colorwork, circular yoke sweater that has been in the making for quite some time. Säie Sweater is an ode to the beautiful colors of Säie Wool.
Thinking Back
The post from a few days ago about my latest collaboration with Aara Yarn made me think back to our first collaboration ever: Linnaea Shawl!
Alma Skirt
This year I have so many fabulous projects lined up, that it would be hard to convince me to take a weeks long pause anyway! More details on those later, but today I wanted to share my Alma Skirt with you. Alma Skirt was another collaboration with Ilo Yarn for Jyväskylä Knit Fest 2024.
Summer Sale
I’m trying to minimise computer work, but I’m knitting outside as much as possible - so some work gets done after all!
So I had the idea of a Summer Sale! And it has started already! Use code SUMMER to get a 20% discount on all the patterns in my shop! The sale continues until the end of the day Friday, June 28th, 2024!
Serendipity in the Making
I thought today would be a lovely day to look closer at the design process during the making of Serendipity Sweater, this lovely cabled raglan sweater. You might have followed the journey of this design on my Instagram earlier this year: I shared quite a bit process and progress pictures and videos of this one.
Socks for Spring
It’s end of April and I think Spring is here to stay this time. The sun is shining and the air feels fresh and surprisingly warm. I’m ready for all the flowers and green grass. To celebrate I have just released two new sick designs: Mauve Socks and Lemonade Socks!
Spring Sweaters
For month or so ago I was all about Spring things: tops and t-shirts and shorts and what not. But now, I do feel like long sleeved thick sweaters are all we are going to need. So I have started and almost finished two new sweater projects while waiting for Spring. And these are the loveliest, simple sweaters this time.
