New WIP!! Wool and Silkmohair 🤎 #knitting #knit #handknittedsweater #KnitwearDesign #yarn

I have a new design on the needles for my youngest—who isn’t so young anymore. Time flies, and the kids grow up so fast!

It’s a long-sleeved sweater with an interesting detail on the collar, cuffs, and ribbing. I’m knitting it in #EasyCare merino wool by @Mayflower, in the color Powder 🩷 Perfect for the coming spring.

The knitting pattern will be available on www.woolwolfknits.com later this spring!

The testing of the #pineconecardigan #kottekoftan is up and running and I’m joining in with a new sample in a reversed color scheme. There’s still room for more testers if you want to join. Deadline 15/4.

Little pinecone and big pinecone!
I've made some changes to the big version:
🐿️ The big one is knitted top down. With the children's cardigan, I had a lot of trouble getting the dots to end up at the right place at the joining of the sleeves and yoke for each size, and then there are still only three sizes. Now I wanted to save myself that headache.
🐿️ The cones in the border under the yoke have been given a new design.
🐿️ The rolled edge at the bottom is worked last so that the button edge also gets a rolled edge.

And then obviously another yarn, DK instead of fingering.

Yarn in big cardi: Highland DK from @northern.yarn.studio and #håndværksgarn from @hjelholtsuldspinderi

Yarn in small cardi: #raumafinull and unknown home-dyed yarn

Sneak peak

I recently finished a poncho with a matching pair of wristlets. I'm now in the final stages of finishing the pattern for the poncho, the wristlets will follow soon.

Stay tuned if you're interested.

Closeup of a knitted project. A stripe of pink with a flower lace pattern, top and bottom are gray garter stitch

I'm still writing up the pattern but I finished the sample for my woodland hat and we went out to take photos so I can't resist giving you a little sneak peek 😁 #knitting #KnitwearDesign #MeMade #SlowFashion #colourwork

A close up of a knitted hat draped over a stump. The hat has a white ribbed brim and bands of different colourwork designs. There are fly agaric mushrooms, fox faces, parasol mushrooms, ferns and chanterelle mushrooms.

Not pleased.

I'm at a point with my Kauni cardigan, where I don't know how to continue.

The yoke is a derivative of a raglan, but with all of the decreases on the body, the sleeves continue up the shoulder. I'm now at the point, where all the body stitches are decreased away, but there's still a super deep v on the back that I need to close somehow.

And so far nothing works.

Back to the drawing table.
