TreLiz
Once again I decided to trust TreLiz and get her “Christmas – Mystical Path” mystery box. I already got her Birthday Mystery box for the Fresh Peonies shawl, that was totally out of my comfort zone. Here again, these colours are not my usual and I decided to go with it. Thanks to you TreLiz for these wonderful yarns and for pushing me to choose other colours and patterns. I love my Fresh Peonies shawl and get lots of compliments and interests when I wear it, I am sure that it will be the same again with this new mystery project.
De Rerum Natura
New colours left and right ! This is an avalanche of new colours for Albertine and Penelope. All colours are more beautiful than the others, my eyes are amazed. From the colder blues and purples to the warmer browns and neutrals, everyone should find their own preferred palettes.
They have a whole series of colour descriptions and associations on their blog and their Instagram, with all Albertine colours here and Penelope there.
In addition, I already have a full blog entry for the De Rerum Natura Gilliatt in Bouleau that I ordered and received, more to come once. cast on !
Books and Magazines
Wool And Pine
Wool And Pine have released two books, one for children, one with green only patterns 🙂 You can find the books on their website and on Ravelry.
The 2021 Minis features 7 of their most popular patterns redesigned to fit from newborns to 12 years old. What a neat idea, for all of us who have children in our own families or environment ! I particularly like the Sorrel Mini as I already have knitted the Summer Sorrel for myself and have La Bien Aimée yarns for the Sorrel in my stash.
The Green Collection, Book 2, includes 6 size inclusive patterns all in these green vibes from the North Pacific forests. I have already bought the Book 1 with both Sorrel and Summer Sorrel patterns that really caught my eyes and am considering getting Book 2, just to support them as I enjoy their universe 🙂
On Ravelry, you can get the digital copies of both 2021 Minis and Book 2 : The Green Collection. If you buy the printed copy from their website, you get a download code to get the digital one 🙂
Submissions are open for Laine 14
Laine Magazine has two submissions one at the moment, Laine issue 14 (until October 24th) and 52 Weeks Of Easy Knits (until November 7th), we already have talked about the later. Laine 14 patterns will be inspired by Nordic night summer lights for summer 2022. If you are interested, the mood board is on Pinterest.
