From left to right: Martian, Atomic, Galactic, Lichen, and Francie. Some of us like our greens to pop! This week, we're offering a selection of green shades that do just that...they're bright, punchy, and fun, proving that green doesn't have to be earthy or full-bodied to be delightful. Make an single color accessory, stripe a couple together (Martian and Atomic or Galactic and Francie!), add a bright accent to a colorful yoke -- the possibilities are truly endless. Get your bright greens on with us this week -- it's a party! These colors, available on three of our bases, are available to order now and while supplies last. They will ship in approx. two weeks, the week of April 1st....
We're thrilled to release our latest free pattern today, the Diamond Cowl! It's an essential accessory, so much fun to knit, and combines a couple of our favorite things: color and cashmere. Our Elmer and Elmer Tweed Fingering bases shine in this simple stranded pattern -- just wait until you feel the fabric! We think you’ll really enjoy the shaping built into this piece too -- it falls into a cozy cashmere-forward “puddle” around your neck. Pattern available here on our pattern pages, or on Ravelry. We have kits available for a limited time too, featuring our Dimond Laine Elmer yarns and some of our favorite custom and hand-dyed colors. Kit #1: Elmer Fingering in Gray Is My Favorite...
Betwixt Shawl shown above knit in Elmer Tweed Fingering in color Fir, held together with Birdie in color Laine Green. Conceptually inspired by the in-betweens of places and people, the Betwixt Shawl is a top-down triangle shawl worked in garter stitch. The wide stockinette stitch center spine gives it that center focus, bringing both sides together. This shawl was designed for mixing bases! Fancy some fringe? The Betwixt has it! Grab your free pattern from our website, or on Ravelry. We're offering a few color choices all kitted up (see below!), or choose a mystery kit and let us pick for you. This marl is so much fun! Note that these shawl kits will be dyed-to-order and will ship in...
From left to right: Conversation Pit, Olives, Avocado, Tart, and Sour Apple. We're continuing our month-long fiesta of all things green with a special dyed-to-order event spotlighting some of our most earthy greens -- we might even call these scummy (where scummy is something we're looking for in a good green!). These greens will ground any color palette -- Sarah often pulls color palettes together making sure she has some colors that pop and at least one to add just a bit of earthy "scum". Avocado: An olive green with an undertone of golden brown. Conversation Pit: A foresty and magical green. Quintessential 70’s decor. It goes with everything, and is cool, warm, bold, delicate. This is a green filled...
It's March! And around here we're seeing new greens popping up to complement the darker pine we see all year round -- and this slow roll into growing season has us dreaming of spring-like cast ons in all sorts of greens! Maybe you love green in all its variety too? Celebrate with us -- this week and in the weeks to come. This week we're offering a slate of greens that remind us of all the shades of fir and pine, with just that hint of new growth. Available now, and why supplies last here, and on five of our bases: Big Birdie, Birdie, Birdie DK, Percy, and Trio. Shown above on Trio and below on Birdie, from top to bottom:...
