  6. What Maya Knits - Take Stock

    After a really long winter, it honestly feels like we skipped spring all together, the summer heat has finally arrived to London.

After making a humongous DK weight shawl a couple of years back (the Askews Me! by Stephen West) and having worn it constantly since then, maybe not through the worst summer heat wave, but other than that every single day is like … I can feel...
