Arlet Hat and Mitts - pattern release

Happy knitting everyone! I'm so happy to share my new knitting design created in collaboration with Eden Cottage Yarn - Arlet Hat and Mitts. 

Knitted in beautiful green colour this set combines pretty combo of stitches. The broken rib creates  beautiful textured surface of the fabric while simple cable adds some interest to the design. 

Both accessories are knitted in the round with DK weight yarn. I used Hayton DK in shade Woodland. This beautiful yarn is hand dyied by Victoria from Eden Cottage Yarn in West Yorkshire.

There are two other great substitute options for this set - Bowland DK and Milburn DK

The knitting pattern for Arlet Hat and Mitts is available from Ravelry and Lovecrafts

Also, in 2019 I have designed Arlet Vest which is knitted with the same yarn in the same shade. You can find the pattern for vest on Raverly and Lovecrafts too.

To celebrate the pattern release I'd like to offer 10% off on both patterns. To get the discount please use code ARLET10 at the checkout on Ravelry.

Comfort Formula Sweater - Pattern Release

Warm and cozy yarn + perfect fit = Comfort Formula Sweater. :)) Today I'd like to share my new sweater  design. 

This sweater turned out great and is often used in my everyday wardrobe. It can be combined with most items and worn under any jacket or coat.

The sweaters design is very simple with a few interesting features. It is knitted with curve bottom hem which helps to make the silhouette slightly longer. Also, to add a little bit of decorative elements I used double raglan decreases for shoulder shaping. 

Back, Front and both sleeves are knitted bottom up on straight needles. The neck band is knitted in the round. 

For this sweater I used Aran weight yarn and US8 (5.0 mm) knitting needles. So, it is quite fast project. 

I used The Croft Shetland Tweed Aran by West Yorkshire Spinners. This yarn has a beautiful  colour palette, creates nice and soft fabric. However, it is slightly itchy to be worn next to the skin. I prefer to wear this wool with long sleeve t-shirt underneath for extra comfort.

Knitting pattern for Comfort Formula Sweater is written for sizes from XS up to 2XL and available from Ravelry and Lovecrafts. 

To celebrate the pattern release I'd like to offer 15% off on Ravelry with code COMFORT15 Offer valid until 15th of February
