Cosy Toes

This might be my favourite sock design yet! I originally came up with Tìorail for a magazine submission. I’m not sure if the submission went through – I never got an auto-reply or heard back from anyone, but I loved the design so much I knew I was going to release it myself!

I knew I wanted to knit it in a really nice deep colour that felt warm and wintery. Unfortunately that was proving very difficult to find until Victoria at Eden Cottage Yarns posted this beautiful deep red called Apeldoorn Tulip on my favourite sock base Brimham 4ply! The timing was perfect  – just like it was meant to be. She’s dyeing some more sock yarn in Apeldoorn Tulip for the release so keep an eye out for it!

Victoria has given me a 10% off voucher on her sock yarns for all my lovely Patrons! If you’re not a Patron already, it’s super simple to sign up and from just £1.00 (plus EU VAT depending on your location) you get 50% off new releases and all the behind the scenes news!

You can get 25% off Tìorail with the code CosySale until 1.00 am (BST) on the 5th October 2021. The pattern is also on LoveCrafts and Etsy!

If you want to find out what I’m up to between blog posts you can keep an eye on what I’m up to on Instagram, or come join me on Patreon for 50% off new releases and to find out what I’m working on for the next few of months!

If you’d like an exclusive 40% discount on future releases sign up for my newsletter – I only send out emails when I release a new pattern or am having a sale, so usually, you’ll only hear from me about once a month.

More Shortie Socks

I really enjoy knitting shortie socks! They’re all my favourite things – toes and heels – but none of the boring bits – like legs that go on forever. Yeldrin have a really fun, easy to learn lace pattern that is mirrored on either side of the sock.  You can get 25% off Yeldrin with the code YellowSale until

Sea Monster Scales

It seems I have a love for lace patterns that repeat and can be increased in size through a cowl, but that’s ok, I’m happy to own it! Stoor Worm is the third cowl pattern I’ve done in this style, joining Cashie and Lozent. Where Cashie is leaves and Lozent has a diamond pattern, Stoor Worm

Storm Bird

I have been dreaming about a pair of fingerless mitts with a feather pattern for ages. It’s taken me a little while to figure it out. I didn’t want to use cables unless it was really necessary (spoiler, Assilag uses cables) because lots of little cables can be fiddly and tedious. I tried out some

Rings of Colour

I have had this idea for ages, for a striped cowl with a colourwork pattern at the join between the stripes. So long in fact that I picked up this yarn as a “spare” advent calendar at the end of the year. The yarn came as a gradient from white, through pink, to purple, to
