after the most wonderful spell of weather I woke up to torrential rain and wind…so much for bringing on autumn….it feels as if we have leapt into winter!
Anyway, I don’t mind because I have been working with the most fab new fibres…from Artisan yarns…which I am hoping to stock this year..
I have been sampling for the new book and really enjoying getting down to work with some of the best small producers in Britain…more on this later
This is the first photo of new design for the autumn…hoping to photo lots at the weekend up north whilst learning how to hunt for chanterelles with my friend Graham and his girls. This design is semi felted and knitted in pure British Jacobs yarn, which I used for the Cabbages and Roses commission….
It’s a great shape with saddle shoulders and side panels……lots of you at UK Knit camp loved it, which is wonderful…the pattern will be ready by the weekend for those of you who have already bought the yarn…….thanks ..can’t wait to get feedback on the design!

Me, I loved it – excited to hear the pattern will be out soon! I’m really looking forward to knitting this (particularly after a serious of things in small gauge!)

What a wonderful jumper!

Hi Di
This jumper looks fantastic, I love the flower pattern around the edge and on the back – how about a fitted jacket with the same flower detail on it, would look fantastic with the herringbone skirt……
Just had a look through your patterns and the Abstract coat is definately on my list! Hopefully, i’ll be able to get up to the Bothy in the next couple of weeks, can’t wait to see it.
Keep smiling, knitting and most importantly designing!
See you soon
Marilynne
