I haven’t always knit sweaters for myself. For a long time it seemed like an infinite amount of knitting. But I’m here to tell you, it is indeed a finite amount of knitting and having a hand knit sweater, made by you, is an absolute joy.
Once upon a time, at EYF, I saw, from across the room, a skein of hot pink mohair. It was love. That mohair was destined to become a sweater… A Love Note sweater.
Lately we’ve been having great fun combining lace weight mohair yarns with other yarns, resulting in beautiful painterly effects.
On our recent trip to Paris was amazing. Em and I spent days chatting, drinking coffee, visiting museums, and eating all the pastries TOGETHER! We may have done a little yarn shopping too, at the famous La Bien Aimée
Emily and I couldn’t just hang out in the same city at the same time, we had to put together a little collection too! When springtime brings warmer and brighter days, we love knitting lace, and we now have four new lace designs to share: Love Note, Posy, the Penny sweater and the Penny hat.
