Isn't this gorgeous?! It's @edencottageyarns Titus

Isn't this gorgeous?! It's @edencottageyarns Titus Fingering in Steel and it's an absolute dream! Titus Fingering is a Merino/Silk single ply yarn which makes it super soft and perfect for accessories like shawls and cowlettes. I've got something really special planned for this skein! ⁣

If you've been following me for a little while, you'll already know that @edencottageyarns Hayton 4ply is my favourite yarn for fingerless mitts. With merino, cashmere and nylon it's the perfect blend of cosy, soft and hardwearing, and Victoria's colourways are always beautiful! ⁠This one is Lagoon and it's absolutely stunning!⁣
⁠⁣
My pair is knit in the small size and I'm wearing them with 0.5" of negative ease. My testers have knit up Uisge in all six sizes and loads of different colours and you can see them on my blog too!⁠⁣

Today's #MarchMeetTheMaker prompt is Colour. I love colour! Picking the colour for my designs is one of the really fun parts of my job! Sometimes the colour helps tell the story of the design - like Foghar (autumn) which is knit in orange for the autumn leaves, or Solasta (shining) which is knit in a beautiful glowing yellow. But sometimes it's just a colour I liked, like the red for Cuibhrichte!⁣

It's that time again - Release Day! I'm really excited to show you Uisge (pronouced ous-ke) in all it's glory! The last pattern in my Elemental Mitts series is water!⁣
⁣
Uisge has a beautiful cascade of slipped stitch cables travelling from cuff to cuff up the outside of each hand, like a mini waterfall. I've loved exploring all the different patterns in my elemental mitts but I really think I saved the best till last! ⁣
⁣
These cables are delicate, but super easy and quick to work. I highly recommend working them without a cable needle. If that's a new technique for you, there's a photo tutorial included in the pattern and on my website!⁣

Today's #MarchMeetTheMaker prompt is Reality. This is an interesting one for me today! Of course, most of what we share on social media is the good things that happen but I feel like that doesn't apply so much to what I post. I actually love to post my knitting mistakes - they can make really interesting posts! ⁣
⁣
What I don't post is all the parts of the job I do on the computer. All the swatches and designs that don't work I share on my Patreon so that's a great place to do if you want to see all the background and the ins and outs of pattern design! ⁣
⁣
My cable snapped recently when I was knitting! I was really lucky that it happened at the end of a row and not in the middle because it's so fiddly to feed it through the loose stitches!⁣
