Over here on the blog, we have talked at length about the highs and lows of running a knitwear publishing company. There are so many factors that go into the day to day running. The hours of planning, the researching, the test knitting, the bookkeeping, the long hours, I could go on and on! There is one thing, however, at the very core of everything we do, the Making Stories community. You are the reason we are here in the first place and the reason we are still here doing this job we love. Your ongoing support means the world to us and the feeling we get when we see you proudly showing off your new FO is incomparable. Today, I wanted to show off and celebrate some of the lovely projects that have come off your needles recently. We love seeing how you put your own creative stamp on our patterns! This is just the tip of an extremely talented iceberg and I'll be sharing many more in the future. For now, though, feast your eyes on these beauties!

Hi lovelies! The sun is out here in Berlin, and what better day to talk about one of the most joyful issues we've ever done than a brilliant sunny winter day – meet Issue 13, Confetti & Rainbows!
In Issue 13 – our Spring 2025 Issue – we want to play! Confetti and rainbows, unusually and unconventionally interpreted in 12 new knitwear designs – a journey through color, shapes, texture and materials.
Confetti made out of dried flowers, collected over months from bouquets and the road side. Sparkly rainbows, light reflecting. Gentle textures and shapes, echoing the different forms confetti can take. An unexpected rainbow around the corner, on a brick wall, painted in broad strokes.

Hi lovelies! I am back today with a wonderful behind-the-scenes interview with Caroline Frett, a super talented illustrator from Berlin, who is the heart and and hands behind the new look we've been sporting for a little while.
Caro also has a shop for her delightfully cheeky and (sometimes brutally) honest T-Shirts, postcards, and mugs. (I am particularly fond of this T-Shirt and this postcard!)
I am so excited Caro agreed to an interview to share her thoughts and work process, and what she especially loves about our rebrand!
