Here's a little #tbt to the first pattern I ever published, the Bertha tea cozy.⠀ .⠀ I always say that I design because I have to - i.e. there's something that I want/need and no pattern exists, so I make one myself. Suffice it to say, there aren't many tea cozy patterns out there for cylindrical tea pots. 🤷 I don't think I ever expected that anyone else would make it, but I wrote it up and published it on Ravelry anyway. And some people *have* made it! That part never gets old.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #throwback #throwbackthursday #knitting #knittinglife #knittinglove #knittersofinstagram #knitstagram #knitdesign #knitdesigner #berthateacozy #knittingaddict

. *Promo has ended!* . New pattern day! My Whitecap sock pattern is now live on Ravelry (and 15% off for release weekend only). About the pattern:⠀ .⠀ "Whitecap is a basic sock pattern with a few figurative and literal twists. The twisted stitches, which resemble whitecaps on the water, slant in opposite directions. The left sock is worked solely with left twists, and the right sock is worked solely with right twists, creating a mirrored effect. The pattern is both engaging and easily memorized, with four knit “rest” rounds between twists, and works well with solid, semi-solid, tonal, and variegated sock yarns.⠀ .⠀ These socks are worked from the cuff down in the round with a Modified Eye of Partridge heel flap and gusset."⠀ .⠀ The yarn is @manosdeluruguay Alegria in Nickel from @castoncastoffnl.⠀ .⠀ Click the link in my profile + use coupon code WHITECAP at checkout to get 15% off (ends Monday at midnight PDT).⠀ .⠀ Oh, and attention patrons! This pattern is your free May reward. Head on over to Patreon to claim your pattern. And if you're not yet a patron, you can still sign up today to get this pattern for free (link in profile)!⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #kniterations #twitter #knitting #sockknittersofinstagram #sockknitting #sockpattern #knittersofinstagram #knitstagram #igknitters #knittinglife #knittinglove #knittingaddict #knitwear #knitweardesign #knitweardesigner #knitdesign #knitdesigner

So I just saw the hashtag #shelfie and maybe I have been living under rock, but I thought it was hilarious.⠀ .⠀ Pictured is my studio book collection - small but mighty! I use the library whenever I can, but there are some books (such as Shirley Paden's Knitwear Design Workshop and Barbara Walker's Treasury of Knitting Patterns stitch dictionaries) that I just need to have within arm's reach at all times.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #butfirst #letmetakeashelfie #knitting #knittersofinstagram #knitstagram #knittingaddict #knittinglife #knittinglove

Coming this Thursday... a new sock pattern! I'm so thrilled with how the Eye of Partridge heel turned out on these. I am a convert (and I believe @leelamary is too 😂). . This release date for this one was pushed a little due to a combination of gauge issues and travel (unrelated, but both significant). I was originally hoping to publish this pattern at the beginning of the month, but I'm glad I put in the extra time because the result was absolutely worth it. . Be sure to sign up for my mailing list (link in profile) to receive 25% off when the pattern is released on Thursday! . Oh, and if you sign up to be a patron before the end of the month (Fan Club tier) you’ll get this pattern free as a May reward! Link to Patreon is also in my profile. . . Sample is knit in @manosdeluruguay Alegria in 2530 Nickel from @castoncastoffnl and the fabric is impossibly soft! . #kniterations #twitter #knitting #sockknittersofinstagram #sockknitting #sockpattern #knittersofinstagram #knitstagram #igknitters #knittinglife #knittinglove #knittingaddict #knitwear #knitweardesign #knitweardesigner #knitdesign #knitdesigner

Happy Monday! I'm finally back from Ottawa, and while I did not miss the cold (it was -1C this morning), it's amazing to be home. I missed my bed! . I did *some* work while away, but as I mentioned in my stories, I'm super spoiled by the two-monitor setup here in my studio. My 13" Macbook Air screen just does not cut it, especially when editing patterns. . So, goals for this week: 📅 Get my tech editing queue organized/jobs scheduled for the next two weeks (nearly there!) 🧦 Publish a sock pattern (check back on Thursday) 🤐 Finish a sample for a new top secret pattern 📝 Finish and send my June (!!) Designer Newsletter ☑️ Wrestle my "to do" list into submission 🚶‍ Go for a walk every day it isn't raining (1 for 1 so far) 🧘 Take a yoga class (already registered for Saturday morning Yin) . What do you have planned for this week? . . . Pictured: @flockfibre Daydream MCN Fingering in Coy Koi and Weathervane. Keep your eyes peeled for a test knit opening soon for a two-colour shawl in these beauties!⠀ .⠀ #kniterations #twitter #flockfibre #knitting #knittersofinstagram #knitstagram #yarnporn #knittinglife #knittinglove #knittingaddict #knitdesign #knitweardesign #knitdesigner #knitweardesigner
