If you received our newsletter this morning there was a bad link. I normally check them all but missed this one. To see patterns for the Lang Linello on Ravelry please click here.
Lynn and I did a lot of rearranging today.
Madelinetosh Merino Light was rearranged. I’ll share more about that next week.
Tonight’s post is going to be short. I’m tired and need to sit with my feet up. Then early to bed. I hope to be at work early to get back to the moving.
Cooma is a light and airy cowl that provides lots of warmth. Holding fingering and mohair together is all the rage (and for good reason, it’s stunning!) So you can swatch with a purpose! Use the cowl as a canvas for playing with color combinations, test out how each color interacts and practice holding the strands together while creating something of practical beauty!
The Cooma cowl is fast and fun to knit and also a bit addictive. It is our all-time best selling kit and makes a great gift for knit-worthy friends and family!
Each kit includes:
Summer Sorrel is a charming short-sleeved tee for effortless everyday wear. We made quite a few changes from the original Sorrel including a flattering wide-neck featuring a beautiful I-cord collar, deeper dips, short rows at the back of the neckline for a comfortable fit and a loose casual drape using one-strand of fingering weight yarn.
We also changed up the way the increases are worked and omitted the twisted purls! Suffice it to say, there’s plenty of NEW to keep your needles happy and entertained!
Construction: Knit seamlessly top-down in the round, the body of the tee is worked inside out for the ease of working in knitted stockinette stitch rather than purling!
Get Creative! Dive into your stash, Summer Sorrel looks beautiful in your favorite color or faded, our stashbusting sample used 3 colors for a gorgeous summery fade!
Pattern includes written and charted instructions as well as video tutorialsand written explanations for special stitches.
This is Gamut knit out of Noro Tsubame - one ball each of 20 and 26. I love these colours and will definitely be wearing this shawl. We have kits in other colours as well.
In color reproduction, the “gamut” is a certain complete subset of colors which can be accurately represented in a given circumstance, such as within a given color space.
The perfect vehicle for self-striping yarn, GAMUT shawl uses 2 different colorways and a simple textured pattern to produce a stunning celebration of color!
GAMUT is an easy, rhythmic knit that can be knit in a range of yarn weights (shown in sport and worsted weight yarns. And the color changes will delight as you move from end-to-end.
I like this picture - Lynn has her ‘I’m a model and I’m bored’ look on her face 😘. For this version we used one ball each of colour 5 and 10. Colour 10 has been discontinued but we have a few balls hidden away for the shawl.
Named for the barn swallow that migrates to Japan during cherry blossom season, this is a classic worsted-weight silk/wool blend. Each oversized skein contains 656 yards making it ideal for an endless variety of one-skein projects!

MDK Field Guide No. 23: Glow, featuring four designs that are full of color, style, and joy.
Welcome to a world of exuberant color and pattern, from the brilliant, beloved designers Arne and Carlos.
This is knitting at its most joyful. Knitters love the way Arne and Carlos tap into Norwegian knitting traditions, but with a modern sensibility.
Known by knitters the world over, Arne and Carlos are particularly beloved for their weekly video podcast, Sit and Knit for a Bit, in which they welcome knitters into their home in Norway for a warmhearted, wide-ranging chat session.
The conversation covers a lot: from knitting and crafting to design and folklore, with dashes of laughter and whimsy throughout. With their impressive portfolio of collaborations with influential fashion houses, Arne and Carlos’ designs for hand knitters are a breath of crisp, clear air.
This is knitting for the cozy days of winter—straight from the beautiful knitting traditions of Norway.

- Valdres Pullover. A completely modern take on the famous Norwegian ski sweater, this is the sort of treasure to knit and love forever. We love the mix of colors and pattern here, full of surprise and fun.
- Rosy Mittens. The classic Norwegian mitten, with modern color added for fun. These are knitted in two colors, the embroidery adds the details.
- Kos Neckwarmer. Arne and Carlos are constantly cooking up neckwarmers that are all about whimsy and good cheer. This one is stacked with hearts and zigzags and colorful fun. It also happens to be an incredible warming layer.
