After some blissful UK weather last week, I was surprised to see snow today! The opening of outdoor hospitality venues is on the horizon and I dare say we’ll all be needing warm scarves and hats for a while yet. With that in mind, I have a new scarf design to release - more details coming very soon!
The tyre tracks left by the local park ranger remind me of a knitting pattern!
Chortak is now live on Ravelry!
Continuing my Silk Road theme, this tilework in Samarkand is the inspiration behind Chortak, a cowl and mitts pattern in DK weight yarn. The pattern uses Winterburn DK (or, equally, its predecessor Dovestone DK) from baa ram ewe.
Khiva Hat & Cowl are both live on Ravelry!
Gosh it’s been ages since I posted! I’m afraid 2020 has distracted me from my pattern designing. However I’m pleased to say I have some new colourwork accessory patterns coming very soon!
