I have been wanting to share these projects with you for quite some time, and now I’m finally allowed to do so. The upcoming Fresh Design Series with Cooperative Press will feature two of my designs.
One of my designs is of course a lace shawl. This is a stole knit in scrumptious Cashmere Silk from Lisa Souza in Garnet – yet another amazing, deep wine-red. I did say I have a thing for this colour, right? The pattern is tentatively called Sea of Tulips and is knit on the bias (from corner to corner) to tilt the tulip-motifs in the centre of the shawl.
My second design is a pair of double-knit mittens, featuring some Norse motifs – I call them my Norse Mitts. They can be worn either this way or inside-out. The colour of the motifs is reversed on the inside. Like this:
They are also knit in yarn from Lisa Souza – this time in a light fingering yarn called Sock! in Ice Ice Baby and St. Valentine.
