Show and tell: marls
Time for another round of show and tell, this time focusing on marled knits! The sweater above is Katherine’s Colder than Yesterday, knit with a light shade of Isager Baby and a dark shade of Silk Mohair.
Yarn ideas for “Antipodes”
Every year, Andrea Mowry designs a sweater especially to wear to the NY Sheep and Wool Festival in October. This year’s pattern is “Antipodes,” and our friend and teacher Nancy is offering a class here at the shop for folks who’d like to knit it with company and guidance.
Noticing: pointelle
This season, I’m seeing pointelle inspired knits again and again – eyelets in floral clusters and vertical stripes, tanks and cardigans with a delicate, vintage feel. Here’s a pattern roundup, with yarns to make them!
