shooting the book

...sneak peek of the gorgeous kids and lovely yarn from the shoot of my new book which will be for teaching children how to knit!

let's twist again!

So Happy I could dance!

I got my jumper back, finally, from its travels around the world with Twist Collective and it is softer and cosier than I recall - the Frog Tree merino is such beautiful yarn.

Almost can't wait for colder weather so I can wear it!

If you like it as much as I do, you can buy it here

The new issue of Yarn Forward dropped onto my doormat this morning and inside was my Coatigan pattern. I like it as the stripes and little bow remind me of Dr Seuss' The Cat in the Hat for some reason and that makes me happy!

Hope you like it too.

french knitting

The Easter hols are done and dusted and that means the next thing I am looking forward to is a trip to the South of France to teach some lucky folk how to adapt patterns and even design their own. Here are some pictures of the last class I did there.

If you are free from the 13th-17th May and fancy some sun, sea and some fabulous knitting along with great food and company, come along! Check out the fabulous Les Soeurs Anglaises site for this and other great classes. I fancy the Tango myself....
