  2. This was definitely the most intricate item I have ever knit! When I saw the cable combination in my Japanese Stitch Dictionary I knew I had to incorporate it into a jumper design and when Hobbii Yarns reached out to offer me the yarn I just knew the time was right and I had to go for it. At times when doing the calculations and the grading I thought my brain would explode even though the actual knitting was pretty easy and way more meditative than I thought. All the crossed stitches, cables and knit/purl combination are give the most beautiful texture whilst actually being very beginner friendly. Now I just have to take my spreadsheets full of calculations and write the pattern which is always the hardest and least enjoyable part of the process for me. I’m going to take my time over it though, it’s too hot to wear a wool/mohair combination now so I’m aiming to have it finished for September. It’s the perfect jumper to throw on over jeans or leggings on cool autumn days and I have a beige version planned as my late summer egostrikk to test the written pattern. Until then, I apologise in advance for the spam that will follow in the next few weeks but i don’t have any other content as I’ve been knitting this for what seems like forever 😂 . . . . . . . #katandlenidesigns #HobbiiFriends #sponsored #hobbiiyarn #hobbii #cableknit #cableknitting #cableknitsweater #strukturstrikk #egostrikk #nevernotknitting #onmyneedles #knitspiration #knitspo #instastrikk #yarnlover #garnliebe #mohairyarn #knityourstyle #knityourwardrobe #contemporaryknitwear #contemporaryknitting #strickliebe #tejermola #tejeresmisuperpoder #knitweardesigner #knittingpattern #hobbiiwool #hobbiikidsilk

  3. Guys, I did something for the first time ever yesterday… I made a spontaneous reel! 😱😂 I suffer from HUGE imposter syndrome and get horrible anxiety making and posting reels as I always feel that they’re not really good enough. So I plan them and edit and then edit some more and then sit on them for sometimes weeks, before posting. But yesterday half an hour before the school run I decided I’d quickly swatch for my #hobbiielements design and as I was casting on (I posted the photo to my stories) I just thought, “no! These colours are too pretty to disappear with my stories!” So I just sat underneath my bendy-arm-that-holds-my-camera-thingy (I’m nothing if not professional!) and just filmed a few seconds of knitting each colour. There’s nothing like a nice swatch to get all my creative juices flowing and I’m desperate to start on this jumper. But, I’m going to do things right and wait until tomorrow when my mum comes over so I can sit down and get ALL the maths and grading out of the way. I find that that way there’s a much better chance of me actually writing (and finishing!) the pattern 😂. I’m hoping it will be as quick to knit as the gauge swatch suggests because I really really want to finish and wear this candy coloured fluff ball already 😋🍭🍬 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #katandlenidesigns #hobbiyarn #hobbiifriends #hobbiikidsilk #mohair #knittingpattern #patternwriting #pastellove #oversizedcardigan #yarnlovers #garnliebe #knitspo #egostrikk #nevernotknitting #knittingpatterndesign #summerknits #chunkyknitsweater #knittingreels #mohaircardigan #mohairjumper #fluffyknits

  1. When @grainlinestudio released the #grainlineaustin a few weeks ago that side button band closure and cut away armholes just suckered me in. This dress has two versions - A: knee length A-line dress and B: gathered skirt with patch pockets -and is an advanced beginner pattern. It comes in two size ranges: 0-18 B cup and 14-32 D cup. I’ve sewn version B in size 4 which is the size recommended for my bust and very close to my waist/hip measurements and have used Ava Check linen (4.7oz/160gsm) from @merchantandmills . The pattern states that there is 9” of ease at the bust and is semi fitted - I don’t think that there is that much ease (for this size anyway) I think there is around 4” (which is just perfect). I did sew a quick muslin/toile of the bodice to check the fit and dart placement (it has armhole darts) - it took all of 10 mins - and found it to be spot on so made no adjustments. Contrary to the instructions I cut the back bodice, front and back skirt pieces on the fold after removing the seam allowances- I didn’t really want to have to match the check unnecessarily on those pieces. As expected the instructions from grainline are excellent. So much to love about this pattern- it’s super comfortable (without being too loose), love the buttons, deep hem, cut away arms, big pockets, nice neckline …. and if your scared about sewing 16 buttonholes then I can let you into a secret …. I can get this dress on/off without undoing any of them so you could skip the buttonholes (or most of them) and just secure the side seams by sewing the buttons on through both bands so they are non-functioning😉. I’m super happy with this dress and highly recommend the pattern. #grainlinepatterns #merchantandmills #merchantandmillsfabric #memadeeveryday #handmadewardrobe #isewmyownclothes #sustainablefashion #sustainableclothing #myhandmadewardrobe #janomemaker #janomemakes #janomeuk #sewover50 #sewingwithlinen #sewingdresses

  3. Back on my @makeninechallenge and here is my newly finished squidgy @grainlinestudio #tamarackjacket 🤗 and I’m super happy with it. The outer is @merchantandmills 185 linen (colour “Ginger”) and the lining @merchantandmills Indian cotton (Kingley red organic). The wadding/batting is a washable wool (Tuscany collection) from @ladysewandsewhenley . I used a @schmetzneedles 90/14 topstitch needle with @guetermann_creativ_uk extra strong thread to quilt it with sew-all thread in the bobbin. Snaps are @prym.consumer Anorak 15mm . I purchased the “Tamarack hood, collar & patch pockets” add on to make this version - you also need the original pattern (collarless) to make this - the add on makes this pattern very versatile. For sizing I blended between a size 4 at the bust and 2 at the waist/hips. A big thank you to @grainlinestudio for the absolutely amazing 15 part YouTube sewalong which takes you through every single step of making this jacket. I veered slightly from the instructions when it came to inserting the sleeves and set mine in rather than sewing flat. I bound all internal seams for a lovely neat finish and hand sewed down all of the bias binding edging. This is not a quick make, but a super satisfying one - I can definitely see myself making other versions. #grainlinestudios #grainlinetamarack #grainlinestudiopatterns #merchantandmills #merchantandmillsfabric #janomemakes #janomemaker #janomeuk #sewover50 #ladysewandsewhenley #memadeeveryday #memade #handmadewardobe #sustainablefashion #isewmyownclothes #quiltedjacket #sewingjacket #sewinglinen
