So, here are the show notes for all the wonderful patterns and yarns :)



On The Needles:


I will do a separate blog post, which will be done in a 'series' while it's being worked on. Detailing all the yarns and the pattern I've used to create it.

Thank you to Julie of the Diary Of A Yarn Snob for the wonderful swap package! The yarns have been incredible to work with and I can wait to order some myself to use on bigger projects! I've posted hers out today, so it is on its way across the pond.


Pluma Shawlette by Lisa R Myers

Free pattern on Ravelry, knit in Stylecraft 4-ply yarn and I love the fabric it has created with this pattern. Very cozy but still light enough for spring/autumn months.


Off The Needles:


This is a free pattern on ravelry.
I used Malabrigo yarn on 4mm straights.

It's simple garter stitch throughout with increases and decreases, and with a keyhole at the neck front, which was incredibly simple to do! The garter stitch has enabled it to be quite bouncy and it's so snug!

Planned Projects:

Aisling Shawl by Justyna Lorkowska

This is a paid for pattern on Ravelry.

I will be knitting this shawl as part of the Make-A-Long hosted by the Crafts From The Cwtch blog. It's a fantastic blog full of inspiration and advice on all types of crafting. I will be continuing to naturally dye my own yarn for the project and will be using the project to also explore and practice my cabling skills.

Check it out :)

Stash Treats:

Mother Goose Online and my one of my LYS

I bought some gorgeous Fibre Packs from Mother Goose, and would love to offer another pack as a giveaway prize in the very near future! It will be a ravelry and instagram giveaway with one of my handmade project bags as an additional prize! This will be for Episode 10 so keep a watch out for announcements :)

I also made my own project bag and plan to do lots more! However, I would love to hear about other handmakers as I'd love to buy from other Independent Shops! :)

That's all for this week, thank you for stopping by and joining me for a little time out of your day, it means so much, and thank you for everyone's messages or continued support too! You're all lovely!!

Happy crafting!
