My Sunday morning view ... . Reading vs dream knitting! I’m excited about my new study adventure but I have a feeling there is a lot more “dream knitting” in my future - that semester one reading list is long! . These three yarns go so perfectly together, I definitely fancy knitting them into a simple wrap for my upcoming Edinburgh trip. Not sure how feasible it is though. . Such a dreamy combination of textures. Mohair / silk and alpaca / silk and linen from @woollenflower with some sheepy single ply Norwegian wool gifted to me by @trulymyrtlephotos ... . Wishing you a restful weekend wherever you are 💕 . #knitsharelove #knitsharelovegoesbacktouni #dreamknitting #knittingismylovelanguage
I really love this detail on Converging Lines - my latest design for @knitnow using @westyorkshirespinners BFL 💛 ... . I feel so honoured to have my work in this publication and I do love the Bluefaced Leicester yarn. It’s just so fantastic to knit with. I’m looking forward to indulging my passion for great British Breeds in a few weeks time at @edinyarnfest 💕 . What’s your favourite breed to knit with? . #knitsharelove #knittingismylovelanguage #knitnowmagazine #westyorkshirespinners
Thank you so much to everyone who bought a copy of Grellow Love or The Travel Trio as part of the #lotsofsockskal fundraiser. . Together we raised $1084.41 for @downsyndromeinternational 💛 . Thank you so much for your generosity and support. Also to @paperdaisycreations for organising the KAL! . #knitsharelove
💛 Special discount! Raising funds for Down Syndrome International 💛 . Have you heard of the ‘Lots of Socks’ initiative? I hadn't until I was contacted by @paperdaisycreations. . This initiative is part of celebrations for International Down Syndrome Day, celebrated on 21 March each year. Those with Down Syndrome have a 3rd copy of chromosome 21, hence the 3/21 date. . The idea behind #lotsofsocks is that everyone wears two different colourful socks to highlight the uniqueness of each individual and show their support for the Down Syndrome community. . To raise funds for Down Syndrome International throughout the month of February sock designers are hosting a special sale and Lisa is hosting a fantastic knit-along in her group. . I picked the Grellow Love as my pair of socks for this special promotion. Imagine how much fun you can have with different heels and toes! This pattern will be 50% off with the code "Lotsofsocks" all day on the 13th Feb (wherever you are). . I am also offering Travel Trio ebook at 50% OFF with the same code all day on the 13th Feb (wherever you are). All proceeds will go to Down Syndrome International. . #lotsofsocks #lotsofsockskal #operationsockdrawer #operationsockdrawer2019 #knitsharelove #paperdaisycreations
