Everybody wins!

Thea Colman’s newest pattern is remarkable in several ways.  We’d like to introduce you to Wild Mountain Thyme, and tell you all about it.

The sweater is a top down tee with an elegant diamond motif featured along the yoke. Intentionally placed yarnovers add subtle detail around the colorwork, and the fit is loose and boxy. Sleeves and body are short, but the silhouette is easily modified. Notes are in the pattern to alter as desired.  By trying your garment on as you create it, you can ensure a perfect fit!

Wood Stack Throw – 300

Designed by Cap Sease

Here in Vermont, many of us rely on wood stoves for our winter heat. Properly aged and dried firewood makes the best fuel, so we take care to form our stacks with a rustic beauty that ensures good airflow. The easily created textured stitches of this throw remind us of a well-formed season’s worth of warmth. This cozy throw will make you as toasty as a roaring wood fire.

Hand Me Down – 286

Designed by Cap Sease

Not too long ago, all clothing was handmade and built to last. Garments were well worn, passed down and shared between siblings as a growing family and growing bodies required. This timeless unisex ragg pullover is designed to be shared with sizing to include any member of the family. We expect that this hand knit will become a fast favorite and that you may need to make more than one!

A new sweater, three ways

Elizabeth Doherty released her newest pullover pattern this week, Sian.  It is a top-down slipped stitch sweater that is a dream to knit and wear.

This design, and the slipped stitch texturing that is featured in it were inspired by a trip to Scotland’s Outer Hebrides. Each of the stitch motifs reflect a different aspect of that landscape, including the waves, walls, flocks of sheep and little stone huts of the islands.  Her pattern calls for a DK weight wooly wool that will allow that design to pop with clarity and retain comfortable elasticity.

It has been a tumultuous year with overwhelming news stream that is as difficult to absorb as it is to disconnect from.  To balance this in a small way, we’d like to offer something simple, beautiful and heartwarming for you to knit and share this season.

Our FREE ReTweed cowl pattern is crafted with a straightforward slipped stitch pattern made more sophisticated by alternating three colors.  This snug fitting unisex cowl will comfortably fit under a winter jacket, and can easily be modified to a different circumference to fit your preference.  Best of all, you may be able to make more than one; giving you a ready gift for someone you love!
