Virtual Knit Night April 13th
So the last few months of winter turned to be quite eventful and did provide a bit more drama than what I would have asked for. There was this wave of unforeseen stuff that just kept on landing in my lap, and unfortunately the consequences were not one but two cancelled Virtual Knit Nights. I am so looking forward to... -
Inspired by Flowers
Springtime has got me dreaming of flowers. Blossoms on the trees, daffodils popping up in the borders and even my tulips are starting to peek their heads up out of the ground, waiting to give me a vibrant display. So all this flower potential in spring has got me thinking of yarns that take their colour names and inspiration from... -
Spring Clean your Notions
I'm really excited about spring, it's starting to feel just a little bit warmer. Which means I have moved from the heaviest jumpers to braving a sleeveless tank top when I come to work (over a shirt that is, I'm not quite ready for short sleeves yet!). My knitwear is migrating into a more spring like feel and I'm pleased... -
On Maya's Needles
I'm living in the hope of spring arriving soon, but at the moment this seems like a distant dream. The weather is London is horrible at the moment, as a Norwegian I shouldn't complain - but seriously this is cold! Currently on my needles (those active ones, there is no denying I've got other projects hibernating ...) are two projects... -

Lets talk about socks, baby.
We have been having a sock themed week at Knit With Attitude. Everywhere we turn sock based inspiration is calling out to us. I seem to go through sock phases, I become completely obsessed and then the urge passes and I don't knit one for another year. Though I'm currently riding a sock wave and I have three different pairs... -

It's a wrap
We are craving comfort at the moment and large scarves and wraps are really calling to me. Though I don't want anything too bulky and heavy, something light an airy that I can wrap round and round me sounds just about perfect. There is something about a classic long rectangular shape that I really like. No matter how light the...
