My granddaughter absolutely loves chickens and asked for a chicken sweater like mine. This by ✳️VetkaKnits 🔸Knitwear/Patterns is a shop favorite. Well it looks like she wasn’t the only one to ask because she released a kids pattern this year. It’s in fi*****ng weight yarn so I’m doing some math with Double Sunday because I’m not knitting a sweater in fi*****ng weight 🥴 I’ll keep you posted on progress and mods 🐔🧶. It’s also a great time to knit yourself a chicken sweater!!!!

Love this pattern… Cable Braid Knit Tree Skirt
by Ashleigh One chunky braided cable, one simple repeat, zero seaming — a hand-knit tree skirt in just one weekend. The small size takes just two skeins of super bulky held on US 15s, and a step-by-step video walks you through the cable crosses. Two sizes included, tabletop to full-size tree. 🧶🎄🧶.

🎄🧶 Knit down to the holidays 🧶🎄 Week 4 Pattern is Paula’s Scarfette🧣 by Georgie Nicolson We knit our sample with just 1 skein of Queensland Collection Kathmandu Aran, a beautiful tweedy wool/silk/cashmere blend. For a non-tweedy look (as shown in the second photo), malabrigo Worsted is another great option. It’s the yarn called for in the pattern, and we’ve just added it to the shop! It’s getting chilly out there on morning walks. Time to break out the hats, mitts and scarves

PetiteKnit // Mette is my hands down all time favorite hat pattern. Great for men, women and children. It is warm and unfussy 👍 Size medium for myself and XS for this little cutie. For reference she is almost 2 years old ( her hat was made from my stash) Our West Yorkshire Spinners Fleece is my yarn of choice but we have so many beautiful yarns to choose from.
