Photo shows 5 Greenlandic women in their national dress with beaded yokes. In the late 1920s Norway sought to possess East Greenland. Norwegian knitting designer Annichen Sibbern Bøhn designed a sweater which mimicked the Greenlandic beaded yoke. And that's how yoked sweaters became a thing. 🧵

In struggling to create—getting splinters as I climb a tree to record cicadas, pricking my finger as the image I spent hours embroidering takes shape, or fretting over a sentence not knowing if I have all the words to say something buried deep—I am connected to every person who created before me.

The stars of my balcony garden right now are these pretty little violas. They’re especially lovely in the early evening sunlight. #SmallJoys

An absolutely gorgeous Beeswax Hat 💛

It’s gorgeous Samantha! 💛

All right, crafty folks. I need everyone who sees this to keep a look out for the following shawls. They were lost by FedEx on the way to Barcelona Knits, and have been declared "unrecoverable". 🧶 This is thoussands of euros of work & materials, not to mention their value at Trunk Shows & Workshops.

And in case you'd like to knit a VOTE hat of your own, I've got it up on Ravelry or on my website! www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib... vote.louisehutt.com

I’m spending some time on sewing this long weekend, and I decided to start with something small - a new wrist-mounted pin cushion to replace the one I made several years ago using the same pattern (its elastic strap is now a bit small). I went with a velcro strap for the new one for adjustability.

My Bereket sweater is coming along! It’s been my weekend few-rows-here-and-there project for the last couple of months, and I’m very nearly done with the second textured section. I’m hoping to have it finished before winter rolls around, and I think my chances are looking good. 🤞🏼 #knitsky

#fiberuarychallenge Day 17 - Monochromatic For this prompt I automatically thought of my Orfeo Cowl knitted in two shades of green! The pattern is by @baroquepurls.bsky.social #knitting #knitsky

Thanks so much for your wonderful comments and love for my two latest designs! I appreciate it so much. 💜 The Parterre Hat and Parterre Scarf are available on Ravelry and Payhip. Samples shown in Tweedy by Hedgehog Fibres in ‘Lullaby’ and ‘Amethyst’.

And my second stripy sweater FO of 2024, a scrappy Bubble Cardigan by Stephen West, which is like a big comfortable coccoon. #ShowMeYourKnits

And for #ShowMeYourKnits I have two stripy sweaters which I finished in 2024 - firstly this scrappy Dayspring by @toqutigu.bsky.social, which is incredibly cosy!

Jumping in with my favourite crocheted blanket, an oversized rainbow Op Art Square (it’s officially Sasha approved!) #CrochetAway

My newly released Parterre Hat pattern includes three stretchy sizes, and can be styled with the brim turned up or down. I knit my samples using Tweedy from Hedgehog Fibres, in the colours ‘Dreaming in Light’ (a delicate yellow) and ‘Lullaby’ (a warm lavender). 💜

I really enjoy playing around with cables and seeing what kind of shapes and patterns I can make. My Parterre Scarf really came together when I introduced the areas of plain reverse stockinette - alternating with the areas of denser cables, they provide calm spots among the twists and turns. 🧶

My newly released Parterre Scarf has two options for the width, a classic scarf (shown here) and a wider wrap. I knit my sample using Tweedy from Hedgehog Fibres in the colour ‘Amethyst’, and each pop of colour was like a little treat appearing! ✨

I have two new patterns to share today, a cabled hat and scarf duo with a satisfyingly intricate cable pattern! Parterre Hat and Parterre Scarf are available now on Ravelry and Payhip. 🧶

#showmeyourknits cable knits! 🧶 This is the Beeswax Cowl by @baroquepurls.bsky.social and one of my favorite finishes.

Finally finished this shawl for my mom. Pattern is Budburst by @baroquepurls.bsky.social, loved both to knit it and how it turned out ❤️

I have two new patterns coming out next week - an intricately cabled hat and matching scarf, which I knit up in two lovely shades of Tweedy DK from Hedgehog Fibres. My lovely co-model here is Mitzi, my parents’ cat (we have a thing for grey cats in my family). #knitting

Hello fibre folks! Please enjoy this snapshot of the state of my desk (Sasha is helpfully obscuring the pile of pattern drafts)
