Colour Inspiration - Rainy Days
I'm continuing with my colour inspiration posts with the idea of not looking at a particular colour but having a particular theme to guide me. Next up in the series is Rainy Days. I was woken up the other night by a very loud thunderstorm that passed over us bringing heavy rain with it. After looking at a more romantic... -
Swatches and a Sock - Knitting Katla Sokkaband
I've longed to knit Hélène Magnússon Katla Sokkaband ever since it arrived in the shop just before Unravel in spring this year. A solid yarn made up of 4 strands of Love Story Einband plied together has made it extremely intriguing. So I bit the bullet and cast on a sock, undeterred by the fact that it is the hottest... -
On Varre's Needles
Spring is finally here, and it’s joyous. The sun is out, everyone’s breaking out their shorts, t-shirts and sandals. So what better time to cast on… a jumper!

But because the weather is hotting up I have decided to focus on plant fibres. There are some beautiful neutral shades that would make... -
New Yarn - Tukuwool DK
A delivery arrived from Finland. This delivery contained the most beautiful woolly yarn. That yarn is Tukuwool DK and it is now sitting very happily on the shelves of Knit With Attitude. What arrived was the most tempting selection of 20 colours of Tukuwool DK a 100% Finnish wool. Tukuwool DK is a woollen spun DK weight, plump and woolly... -
Virtual Knit Night June 8th
Summer is here, and something weird happened. It's like with the sun shining and temperatures rising, so did my knitting mojo. Normally I go into a bit of slumber during the hot summer months, and my stitches move very slowly across my needles. Also, as you know, I've been a strict one project at the time girl for a couple...
