Our darling friend Margaux Hufnagel is knitting a Foldlines Pullover (designed by Norah Gaughan) out of Scout in the most delicious wine hue, mulberry heather. How great does it look with her cosy slippers and the pinks in her rug? Makes me want to have a large glass of wine and knit the night away!⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #KWScout #kelbournewoolens #foldlinespullover #knitting #sweaterweather #norahgaughan⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ 📷: @1010_studio
"If you’re asking, “You washed and blocked your swatch?” here is where I pause to give you a smile and a nod. I’m going to wash my finished sweater, right? So yes, of course I washed my swatch. I don’t want any surprises."⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ THANK YOU, @juliehoover_design, queen of construction and shape, for so beautifully stating what we tell students in every. single. time. we teach - regardless of the actual class topic: swatch AND block those swatches!⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ In case you missed it, Julie has a thorough post on her website about swatching, blocking her swatches, and how she determines if a yarn is a good fit for her next project. (In this case, a new sample of her Colvin sweater in our Lucky Tweed.)⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Check out her post via the link.in bio! ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #KWluckytweed #juliehoover #juliehooverdesigns #youbetterswatch #yarnsubstitution 📷: @juliehoover_design
How CUTE is this little acorn knit by Jayne (@roseandthewren) knit out of Scout and Peace Fleece? The pattern is "Knit Acorn" by Kim Hamlin from Maine LYS @fiberandvine. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ I could totally see knitting up a bunch of little acorns for a super sweet autumnal spread, and the heathered tones of Scout are just perfect for the design! Check out the free pattern via the link.in bio.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #KWScout #fiberandvine #freepattern #decorativegourdseason #autumn 📷: @roseandthewren
@modaveloce's latest pattern, the Gaze Cowl (link.in bio), is designed using Andorra in snow white and ink black or @spincycleyarns Dyed in the Wool and @yarnonthehouse Little Brother.
