New Knitting Adventures...

    New Knitting Adventures... For me, at least, the bulk of knitting releases I have always launched during the later half of the year and so now that 'busy' time is soon upon me... I am all ready to go actually, with most test knitting wrapped up, so it should be a fairly smooth ride, with 6 new patterns to release over Sep/Oct/Nov, the first of which will be The Woven Shawl on the 30th September 😀 I love the texture of this shawl, it has a very traditional homely woven look - hence the name lol - created by utilising both sides of Linen stitch, as well as squishy Garter stitch which for me is the quiet hero of knitting. In other news... All of this preprepatory organization has paid off as planned, in that it has left me free to work on my most scariest and probably due to be longest project so far - the sweater I am currently knitting up  At first it was alot of throwing myself into the maths side which totally daunts me and even more of knitting 2 rounds just to rip...

Back on the Blog!

  Back on the Blog... So it's been another long hot Summer and on the knitting front that has not stopped me knitting away on all things woolly! Apart from personal projects and gift knitting (Christmas knitting of jumpers and socks in July! 😅) I managed over the last year to crank out 3 shawls, 2 cowls and a couple of hats that are all due for release late 2022/early 2023 - 3 of which made it into last years Christmas gift knits pile and another will dive into the steadily rising pile for Christmas 2023! I love knitting up a stockpile of designs - as you know- whilst my wonderful stitchsaving test knitters work through prior designs, but that does always mean I will get to the point where I have to put my needles down in order to write up all the patterns so that they can become my next test knitters projects in time for them to finish them before release due dates come around...Not the bit I love 😒 but can't be avoided! So mid-late August was all about that for me, writing ...

My Waterways Wrap has been released!

Image
  Today sees the release of the ' Waterways Wrap ' , available in my Ravelry store ' Bex Knitty Design ' and shortly also on LoveCrafts.com! This is a lightweight floaty elegant but easy to wear wrap, full of lace and texture, ideal as a warm weather cover up or wrapped around for delicate warmth. It is knit in a leaning bias shape with regular increasing and decreasing as it forms, and whilst the textured and lace patterns keep it an engaging knit, they are quite simple and intuitive.  You can choose whichever yarn weight you prefer, just remember different gauge can change the required yarn amounts and finished measurements. As usual with my releases, it will be FREE for the first day or so, which means until end of day (CEST) on the 17th April 2022 and then it will be included in my 3 Year Designer-versary sale with 33% off until end of April 2022!
