From Knitting Needles to Knitting Machine: The Fern Lace Scarf

Image
Have you ever hand-knit the CashSilk Fern Lace Scarf? It is a beautifully simple pattern, with easy-to-memorize repeats and shaping that creates a stunning lace design. But did you know that it can also be made on a knitting machine? The Fern Lace Scarf , knit in SweetGeorgia Merino DK in Camelia. CashSilk Fern Lace Scarf The original scarf was designed by Felicia while travelling. She wanted something simple enough to pick up and set down at a moment’s notice, while still being engaging enough for long stretches on a plane. The result is a thoughtful and striking lace design that feels both relaxing and rewarding to knit. The CashSilk Fern Lace scarf (free pattern). Originally knit in the Lakeshore Drive colourway.

Organize Your Tools for a More Creative Space

Image
Spring cleaning is one of the best feelings of the year. Whether you are coming out of a long, cold winter or a scorching summer, the in-between seasons of autumn and spring often feel like the perfect time to refresh our spaces and get organized. It is a chance to tidy up our tools, take stock of our supplies, and make space for future projects.

Also, you will find a downloadable PDF at the end of this post, so you can record your tools and stash for quick reference. Throughout the y...

Secret Stash Club Knitting: Spring Mug Cozy

Image
There’s something especially satisfying about colourwork in soft pastels and wool, it feels playful and soothing all at once. For our April Secret Stash Club sample, we leaned into gentle, airy shades that bring a fresh spring mood while still giving the motifs enough contrast to stand out clearly. Below, we’re sharing how Charlotte paired this Peruvian wool base with a cozy, practical project and how she chose the mini-skein palette to make the colourwork sing. THE SPRING MIX COLOUR STORY For our April Secret Stash Club, we wanted to create a set of mini-skeins in a palette that would evoke the light, delicate colours of spring. The early crocus, lilacs, bluebells, and lily of the valley flowers that add a touch of colour to those early spring gardens. These colourways were then hand-dyed on a special yarn base: 100% Peruvian Fine wool.
