Today is #NationalSweaterDay so let's enjoy 'The Fair-Isle Jumper' painted by #Orkney-born artist Stanley Cursiter in 1923.
Stanley Cursiter (1887-1976) was Keeper of the National Galleries of Scotland from 1930-1948 and was appointed the King's Painter and Limner in Scotland.

Anyone else loving the Norwegian team sweater at the Winter Olympics? It's gorgeous! Made from 100% fine Norwegian wool with 100% soft merino lining. Made by Dale of Norway which made the first team sweater in 1956 🧶💕🏔️❄️

I'm not surprised it's sold out! What a wonderful event! If I lived nearer I would have signed up and bought the t-shirt 😂🧶💕
Definitely meant to be!
Oh what a shame you had to buy some La Bien Aimée! 😉 Such gorgeous yarn and what a stunning red 😍
Fingers crossed!

About a foot of chunky hand knitted blanket on a long circular needle. Thick charcoal grey Italian merino yarn. Simple rows of cable on a 14 row repeat. Knitting and attached ball of wool are laying on a pale grey woollen rug with a basket and table leg just visible.
My grey #showmeyourknits is also also a current WIP - the beginnings of a simple cable blanket for my son in Katia Gentile Merino yarn on 8mm needles.
Pattern is 'Comfort' by Kim Hargreaves from an old Rowan magazine (no.34).

My daughter would LOVE this! Mind you, her room isn't too far off with all her crochet yarn & blankets! 🧶💕
That's so clever! Thx for sharing
This is very sweet! Love the subtle flecks of different pinks 🧶💕
Found the pattern! It's discontinued but available at a couple of yarn shops e.g. www.woolmonkey.co.uk/product/Sird...
A long Facebook message describing ways to regulate your nervous system during difficult times, including the repetitive and predictable rhythm of knitting.
A friend just sent me this wonderful post from Audacious Ewe that popped up on her FB feed.
Take care of yourselves everyone - keep calm and keep knitting 🧶💕

Oh fab! I can't wait to start it 🧶💕

I have a garter stitch project ready to start, so a deconstructed contribution for #showmeyourknits this week! Some luscious La Bien Aimée cashmerino arrived yesterday to make this shawlette, with Laine X Novita 4 ply for the tiny tassels.

I've just added the Moonflowers shawl and cowl to Favourites! I could do with editing my queue tbh, as it's too long and hasn't kept pace with my Favourites!
