Hello lovelies,
I just had the best time browsing Ravelry - I wanted to update our Pinterest board with new pattern suggestions for sport-weight yarn, and figured out that I could filter out patterns that have been published in 2023, aka are brand new!
There are some real gems in there, and so I couldn't resist pulling out my top 5 and trying to match them as close as possible to one of my all-time favorite sport-weight yarn: De Rerum Natura's Ulysse.
We also just got a big restock, so all of the beautiful colors are now back! If you haven't tried Ulysse yet, I can only highly recommend it - it's a true gauge wonder, and perfect for pure stockinette, texture and colorwork alike. I love it both for myself (my beloved Citrine is in it!) as well as for Aurin (he's been living in a cardi I knit for him out of Ulysse).
Without further ado, let's take a look at these new favorites:
Syringa is the latest pattern by Meiju K-P, and it's the perfect casual sweater, if you ask me. A deep, but not too deep V-neck, loose-fitting body and sleeves, and a long rib to balance it all out.
Meiju originally designed this for two yarns held together, but it works up at a perfect sport-weight gauge. Merlot, one of my all-time favorite shades, in Ulysse would be a perfect match! Depending on the size you want to knit, you need 5 (6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7) (8, 8, 9, 10, 10, 11) skeins.
If you like a casual fit, but want something with a little more pizzazz, might I suggest Tori Yu's Shocking Stripes sweater? It's the perfect opportunity to play with all the different color combination possibilities of Ulysse!
The stripes are not stranded colorwork, but an easy-to-accomplish two-color broken seed stitch. For a look similar to the sample, I would recommend Ulysse in Poivre Blanc and Genêt.
Depending on the size you want to knit, you need 5, 5, 5 (6, 6, 7) (7, 8, 8) skeins of the main color, and 2, 2, 2 (2, 2, 2) (2, 3, 3) skeins of the contrasting color.
I adore a good wrap that can be worn in multiple different ways, and Lisa Hannes' Rose Garden Wrap just fits that bill! You start with one of the ribbed tips of the shawl, and work your way through a stunning cable-lace pattern that's flanked by garter ridges.
Ulysse' Argile is super similar to the sample - but I think this wrap would look stunning in any color! You need 5 skeins for this project.
Ulysse is absolutely fantastic for kids's patterns, and so I was delighted to see this beautiful cardigan for little one's pop up in my Ravelry search. Roberta Rich's Bee Mine! is sized from 3 to 18 months, so while I won't be able to make one for Aurin, I would love to see one of you knitting it so that I can live vicariously through you!
The cardigan uses two colors for the honeycomb and fun stripe pattern - for a look as close to the sample as possible, I would recommend Doré as the main color, and Crème Anglaise, a new-to-us pastel yellow, as the contrast color. You need 2 skeins of the main color, and 1 skein of the contrast color for all of the sizes.
This photo stopped me in my tracks. How wonderful to see the same design on two people of different ages - and that tender love in the photo ... how special. Patrícia Lima's Virgília Cardigan was originally knit by her grandmother (right), and Patrícia adapted the design and wrote up a pattern for it. It's a super wearable V-neck cardigan with a lovely textural detail!
I picked out two colors for this cardigan: Cacao, De Rerum Natura's new 2023 color, which is similar to Patrícia's version, and Quartz, a soft, pastel pink with grey undertones to match her grandmother's sample. Depending on the size you choose to knit, you need 5 (6, 8, 9) skeins.

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!
