I know, I know, it’s still a heatwave, at least here in Devon. However, the new yarns are starting to arrive, and it might be a good time to start a little ‘plotting’ for your autumn knitting. Specially if the new yarn looks fabulous with the sunflowers! 🌻
I have to admit, I have a bit of a split personality when it comes to yarn and knitting. I’ve realised that I equally love the cool Danish styling and wild, exuberant colours. This new Cloud Funky by Lang Yarns hits my wild side straight on!
Not only does it look fabulous in the sunshine, but just look at the fabulous pattern created by the colour printing 😍😍😍 The structure of the yarn is the same as the ‘old’ Cloud, but the added print over the gradient colour changes is just soooo gorgeous. It almost looks like an animal print 🐅 and who does not love that😄
One ball will make a generous scarf or snood, or you could go for a simple, slightly oversized jumper. I’ve started the aptly named Cloud Sweater by PetiteKnit to make as a sample for the shop, and I’m already rather taken with it.
Cloud Funky is now online and is also in the shop window, for those of you walking past who simply can’t wait until next week to see it! 😉
