Hello lovelies,
one of my all-time favorite things to knit is ... hats. They knit up super quickly (at least in a heavier weight yarn), are really, really useful, and make for great gifts. Bonus points for patterns with interesting texture or cables - they are also extremely fun to knit!
As this month it's all about Gift Knitting here at Making Stories, I thought it would be fun to put together a post about those quick-to-knit and wonderful-to-gift hat patterns - and throw in a little goodie for you: All of these knit up beautifully in our new Hudson + West Co Forge.
Hi lovelies! It's that time of the year - the holidays are fast approaching, and the gift knitting has begun!
I really love gifting hand-knits, preferrably ones that are quick to knit up and make for a really enjoyable project - after all, I want to have fun while knitting them, and feel good about the finished object.
Hi lovelies,
on the heels of our most recent yarn launch - have you checked out Forge and Weld yet? - I'm back with a post filled with pattern inspiration.
(Not so) secretly, writing these is one of my favorite things! I just LOVE a good knitting pattern, and I really enjoy dreaming of future cast ons.
Dear lovelies,
You know those origins that are almost too fantastic to be true? Well, Hudson + West's - our latest yarn and pattern addition to the webshop - one is right there with the best of them. Sloane Rosenthal and Meghan Babin, H+W's co-founders, first came up with the idea of a designer-driven, knitter-focused, 100% US-made yarn company at Rhinebeck, one of the biggest sheep and wool festivals on the planet. On a napkin.
In nur zwei Tagen ist offiziell Socktober! Bist du genauso aufgeregt wie wir? Als wir uns auf diese freudige Jahreszeit vorbereiteten, stieß ich auf einen Beitrag, den ich im Juli 2019 geschrieben hatte, als wir unsere Summer Sock KAL betrieben; Unsere Liebe zu natürlichem Sockengarn (und wie man es pflegt!) .
Im Laufe der Jahre ist unsere Liebe zu Socken und natürlichem Sockengarn weiter gewachsen, daher dachte ich, dies sei der perfekte Zeitpunkt, um diesen ursprünglichen Blogbeitrag zu aktualisieren und darüber zu sprechen, warum wir natürliches Sockengarn lieben!
