Everyone loves a free pattern

One of our favourite yarns is Felted Tweed from Rowan. It is very popular on Ravelry as well. There are almost 25,000 projects. And those are just the people who post their projects. I would guess that there are thousands of projects that haven't been added.

Pattern: Martha (free on Rowan's website). The pattern was originally published in Rowan Studio 2 in 2006. Short sleeves are very popular right now.

This ladies herringbone cardigan was designed by Kim Hargreaves using the gorgeous Felted Tweed DK yarn, 50% wool, 25% alpaca and 25% viscose. This design features contrasting garter stitch edgings and collar and would be an elegant addition to any outfit.

The pattern for the Textured Cardigan is free on Rowan's website.

Felted Tweed is a beautiful blend of 50% merino wool, 25% alpaca and 25% viscose.  The yarn has a beautiful tweed effect, perfect for fairisles, striping and other colour work and is the obvious choice for winter projects. The rustic colour palette makes this yarn a firm favourite, with shades ranging from cool, watery tones, to warming cherry red and fiery ginger. 

*Please note, this is a lightly pre-felted yarn. Please follow care instructions, as the yarn may felt further if washed incorrectly.

There wasn't any knitting today. I spent the day doing website updates that I have been avoiding. Now they're done so I can pick up my needles with no guilt.
