TEST KNITTERS NEEDED 🧶 Lovely test knitters of Instagram, I need you 🥰 The sizes 2 and 3 are already filled but I'm still looking for testers for the other sizes. All info on the link in my bio!

I'm planning to make another #MovementSweater in cream & navy stripes (groundbreaking, I know 💁🏻‍♀️)

Pattern: #MovementSweater coming 5th May
Yarn: discontinued BFL aran

Do I have a to-do list a mile long today? Yes. Did I spend far too long trying how many ways I can tie a knitted scarf as a top? Also yes. The sun is shining and it feels like Spring and I got a bit carried away 😅 Shall wear it today as a scarf, over a tshirt, under a jacket, like a normal person. Most of these wraps would be mighty impractical but I might give no3 a whirl on a beach holiday sometime!

I designed this pattern during the first lockdown and the short row direction changes still bring me a lot of joy 🌈

Finally caught up on grading & pattern writing and finished this one today 👍 I'm full of ideas and plans at the moment and am going to try to keep up the pace! Always happens that I have no FOs for a while, then a whole bunch of designs on the go at the same time, which always coincides with having loads of plans and trips and life stuff. All or nothing, always 😂 Such is self-employed life. I've learnt to trust the cycle these days and just ride the wave. Very excited for the next few months ❤️

TRUST THE PROCESS 💫 Sometimes knitted tops look

TRUST THE PROCESS 💫 Sometimes knitted tops look like a tiny, messy, scrap of a thing that wouldn't fit a toddler during the process... and then you add the neckband / buttonband / edgings and all is transformed. Most definitely the case with this one! When the double knit edging was added around the armhole, it finally started to look exactly like the design that's been in my head for months 🙌🏻

#BoulevardBag bag no2 complete✌️ The 2nd of ma

#BoulevardBag bag no2 complete✌️ The 2nd of many I'm sure! I knit this one ridiculously densely so it's super structured. Shall be on its way to @breigenwijs as a belated birthday gift soon - I intended to finish it before our trip to Copenhagen but that didn't happen. Best laid plans and all that 🙈

The bag pattern will be released on 8th April, the same day as the #CalmDownCardigan, so there will be a little discount for purchasing both together 🧶

Did a lot of knitting in coffee shops this weekend

Did a lot of knitting in coffee shops this weekend and very much enjoyed it ☕ I'll happily knit anywhere and everywhere (as my friends will attest, my knitting always comes along to the pub) and I honestly couldn't give one if people think I'm odd. But it was quite the novelty to not be the only person with needles, and to be somewhere that knitting is so mainstream! Our trip was just for funsies but I kind of treated it as market research too, very interesting to observe a knitting culture quite different to here in the UK...

Snowy morning in Copenhagen ❄️ Snowed for long

Snowy morning in Copenhagen ❄️ Snowed for long enough to take pretty photos out the window, then cleared up so we had blue skies for another day exploring. How convenient 💁🏻‍♀️ Sharing lots of pics on stories if you want to follow along with our jollies!

Copenhagen day 1 🇩🇰 Reunited with @breigenwi

Copenhagen day 1 🇩🇰 Reunited with @breigenwijs and very happy to be here! Glad I packed an excessive amount of knits into my hand luggage suitcase because it's bloody freezing and I'm wearing 5 of them at once - #BoulevardBag is coming in very handy. I do love a little city break 🏰
