Knitting: Beanie, Toque
Like wine and cheese, sugar and spice, or peanut butter and jelly, some things are just better together. Such is also the case with wool and cables. The Seadale hat is the perfect marriage of both. It features ornate cables throughout the fabric that are well-suited to the blend of Manx Loaghtan and Wensleydale wool in the namesake yarn. The un...
Knitting: Beanie, Toque
In early Autumn, brilliant yellow foliage begins to emerge from the thicket of green blanketing the forest. A breeze begins to rustle through the treetops. Evenings emerge earlier – with air both crisp and cool. The turning seasons begin to nudge you, and there is no better time for knitting. Sullivan is a hat inspired by the transition from su...
Knitting: Shawl / Wrap

The meeting of longwool fibers and cables is pretty magical and a bit unexpected. The fabric feels lightweight, and the lustrous quality of the fibers seem to perfectly define each stitch as they cross one another...
Knitting: Pullover
Drop sleeves, saddle shoulders, and a boxy shape make this sweater extremely wearable. Although heavily cabled, this jumper doesn’t feel bulky at all, and the front panel features a few eyelets to open the fabric. The Gretna Jumper has a beautiful drape and lustre thanks to the beautiful blend of British Wensleydale and Blue Faced Leicester. It...
