Winter has officially arrived in the Southern Hemisphere. For those of you who are seasonal knitters it is time to bring out the needles and begin getting into your winter past time. Those of us who knit all year round often wonder what seasonal knitters do in Spring and Summer. Do we really wonder? Not really. It’s so exciting to see every one get cosy with their needles, some snuggly yarn and a hot chocolate. So many young girls have been coming in for their supplies and YouTube under their arm. Remember, we’re here to help if YouTube can’t!
We have two snippets for you this fortnight. a free book and Yarnman Miranda has his first say.
We have knitted a few items from this Cleckheaton pattern book.
The yarn used in the book is all California, made in Turkey, 100g balls (185m). An 8 ply yarn. We did use our own Norway to knit up the cream jumper, so fabulously modeled by our very own Emily. Norway is available in 6 natural shades.
Emily reckons this is a very wearable and comfy jumper indeed!
Come into our Sydney or Melbourne store and purchase the yarn to knit one of the jumpers in the book and we will include the pattern book for free. This offer lasts while stocks last.
And just to conclude your winter ensemble. One of the hats and a voluptuous infinity scarf.
We think you should be pretty much set for the upcoming winter.
And, last, but not least.
Yarnman Miranda speaks……….
Actually, she is totally at a loss for words and that right on her first Yarnman Miranda speaks segment, but she is truly speechless.
This is all we could get out of her:
“Ladies, really……….?!
Until the next time. Try to make something beautiful often.
