Throwback Thursday –
Herat SnoodFor this edition of Throwback Thursday we are looking at the Herat Snood. Knit in the super special From the Mountain - Afghan Cashmere. This pattern is ornamental and sumptuous and is a great way of honouring this equally as sumptuous yarn. Designed by Natalie Selles this snood is a great one skein project. Natalie says of the design: 'There’s nothing...

Spitalfields ShawlFor this, the first of the Throwback Thursday posts we are casting our minds back to 2015 and the 5th anniversary of Knit With Attitude. The aptly named Spitalfields Shawl takes its name from Maya's beginnings with Knit With Attitude. Maya started her shop as a stall at the Spitalfield's Market with two boxes of yarn. The Spitalfield's Shawl was launched at...

Knit a Rainbow - Green
Here at Knit with attitude colour is one of the most debated topics. So instead of doing a fibre or brand feature, I thought I would do little colour ones instead. So this post bypasses projects and specific yarn weights and lets us just love colour. Hopefully if you have a favourite colour in mind, or just looking for that... -
