There is a very distinct Shetland flavour to this episode as I get excited for wool week. I also have a review of the Shetland Wool Week Annual and of Hazel Tindall’s wonderful DVD The Fine Art of Fair Isle Knitting and I have some news of Shetland knitting based trips if you can’t make it to wool week this year.
I wanted to share with you an example of how I’ve test driven some recent swatches. This will give you an idea of how we should approach our swatches for the -along!
I always tell you to grab a drink along with your WIP, but today you need to get your nicest china out and grab a cake, biscuit or sweet treat of your choice because today Jess James and Clare Devine are coming over to KnitBritish for a tea party to celebrate their Tea Collection hat pattern bonanza!
This week we have a lot of yarny love, including a give-away and a review and some top tips for Yarndale.
This a packed pinned episode with wool shop shout out, retreat news and news of our next “along”!
I review Romney Marsh Wools new grey DK weight yarn, which just begs to be knit in garter! (other well defined stitches are available)
From the new studio location in Edinburgh it’s episode 35! This episode I’ve got cast on/cast off, yarn review of British Wool & Alpaca from The Knitting Goddess, news from the Scollayalong and I announce the winners of the #hapalong! All this and a yarn give-away too!
A little fatigued here at KB HQ this week, but episode 28 still has some juicy news for you on the Indie Burgh Yarn Crawl, a new yarn from Blacker and I have had my spindle out spinning some lovely fibre from Fondant Fibre.
