Today is the Christian feast for Julian of Norwich. She happens to be an excellent role model if you wanted justification for living/spending time alone with many books & a cat because in her cell, she wrote the first English book by a woman which is still quoted today 📚 🐈‍⬛

DK for #showmeyourknits. Bobble hat for youngest. He still wears this in winter but I fear it’s head fitting days are numbered

Gardening day! It’s a little late for us this year but a lovely bank holiday means we can get quite a bit done 🍃 🌹 🍃 . This is my most used jumper - made about 6/7 years ago and is amazing for the lack of pilling - looks still quite new

Yes ( I have one of these on my needles at the moment). Or even the more balaclava like my profile pic - they go well with jeans and a top. All above would be good for evenings at festivals etc

I can’t stop making hoods at the moment - they are very on trend though ( I’m led to believe by those younger!)

I can imagine that being really difficult and frustrating it really isn’t the same when you order online as you end up reverting to the same few brands and lines as you know it is good rather than experimenting!

Fantastic to see #showmeyourknits looking at indie yarns 🧶. Feel very lucky to live in a place with 3 independent wool shops! The below is a job lot from one of the shops and a beautiful alpaca from ginger twist in Edinburgh 😍 #knitsky

Ravelry: Knit Like a Latvian: 50 Knitting Patterns for a Fresh Take on Traditional Latvian Mittens - patterns

I can’t dm you but I’ve worked out it was not a bought pattern but from this book which I borrowed from the library. It’s a lovely book which I made a few pairs of mittens from 📚 🧶
