Huge thanks to Midwinter Yarns for hosting my San Donato Sweater sample at Perth Festival of Yarn over the weekend! We’re finalising the test knit - please get in touch if you’re interested in taking part, or would like more details of sizing and yarn quantities to help make a decision. I’m looking forward to seeing everyone’s colour choices!

Thanks to @midwinteryarns for this video showing off my San Donato Sweater! See my recent post if you’re interested in test-knitting this.

Oh dear - I’ve just realised how long it is since I last posted! Having finally caught covid earlier this year (not badly though) I used my new found immunity to get my social life back again and I went a bit crazy going to theatre, concerts, events, courses and even travelling abroad again. So my designing took a bit of a back seat for a while.

Here’s a piece of silk noil fabric I screen printed on a West Dean course recently, using turmeric, buckthorn, logwood, red onion skins, iron and soda ash. I’ve just lined it and made it into a scarf which I’m looking forward to wearing. Oh dear - what with music courses and other things going on there have been too many distractions from my knitting! #naturaldyeing #naturaldyes #botanicaldyes #westdeancollege

It’s April 1st - but this is not an April fool! My new hat is available on Ravelry and there’s a 20% discount on this pattern running for the whole of April!

Oh it’s been a while! Thanks to many distractions, including a bout of covid and a fabulous botanical dye screenprinting course, I haven’t posted anything recently. However, I’m pleased to say that my new brioche hat pattern will be published tomorrow! Watch this space for details of an initial discount code.
