We were in IKEA at the weekend and my husband found this gorgeous bowl and got it for me thinking it would be a great photo prop/yarn bowl/leftover yarn store. (Yarn included for scale) You'll probably see quite a bit of it! . The holidays have just started here and I'm already missing my usual Monday solitude - swapped for sibling rivalry and arguments. How's your Monday going? .

The first few rows of brioche always look a bit weird until it has enough height to sit nicely. Isn't this braided cast on gorgeous though? I have a tutorial for it (and a lot of other brioche stitches) and I'll get them all up on my website over the next couple of weeks! . Yarns are from @fruitfulfusion and @knitcosmicstrings and they are just as perfect together as I hoped they'd be! Pattern is my Buinne Cowl which will be out at the end of the month! .

For this photo my husband made me hang underneath a branch - however the branch was pretty low, and the ground was damp and I had a hard job keeping my knees dry! .

I love this photo. One of my favourite things is a cable that merges seamlessly into the ribbing of the top and bottom cuff and doesn't this one do it beautifully? It's the little details that do it for me! . Thank you for all the love for Lùbach over the last day, every like comment and sale makes my day!

Lùbach is up on Ravelry now! I chose the name because it means winding or meandering and the cable crossing the back of the hand reminds me of a river slowly meandering it's way back and forth through a valley. I especially love how the slipped stitches pull in and emphasise the bend in the cable. The pattern comes with 6 sizes and fits up to a 9" hand. Swipe for a close up of the left hand and I will be sharing more photos with you over the weekend! .

Ready for tomorrow? I am! I've really got into using Trello the last couple of weeks and I've never felt so organised before a release - both my newsletter and my blog are already written when I'm usually scrambling for inspiration on a Thursday morning! .
