Martin Storey's 2019 Knit Along!

 Do you love a good blanket knit along! Lovely, portable pieces of knitting that when put together make stunning blankets....and this time there are cushion options too!

I'm getting ahead of myself! Back up Anne :)

Have you heard of the new Rowan Yarns blanket knit along? The graphic gives you an idea of the lovely textured design of this blanket! It's gorgeous!

This time Martin has designed coordinating cushions - knit a blanket, knit a cushion (or two or three), or do them all for a fabulous display of your knitting!

AND, all of these designs incorporate BEADS!!! How glorious is that! (Actually, the beads are totally optional...so if you don't like beads, you're good!)

 Like Martin's two earlier knit along blankets....this one is knit using Rowan Yarns Pure Wool Worsted Yarn! Previous blankets were multi coloured - this one is knit in a single shade (easy to pick a shade that will compliment your other Martin blankets) .

23 gorgeous shades of Pure Wool Worsted Superwash 
Like all of Rowan's knit along projects, the pattern is FREE to download from the Rowan web site.....

The materials list has been published and the first square pattern will be released on May 13! (Followed by weekly releases of the other 3 motif patterns.)

Rainshadow Hanging Garden Stole sample beaded bracelets for the workshop! examples of how colour and beads work together! Rolling Thunder Gauntlets Fluency Gloves Dryad, by Sivia Harding for Twist Collective, Winter 2009 a personal favourite right now :) Lumen, by Sivia Harding for Brooklyn Tweed's Wool People 4! Bead Whimsey with Sivia Harding That was the name of the class that I took at the Toronto Knitters Frolic.  I have attended many workshops in my time, so it takes a special workshop to catch my attention. Do you know her? I have to admit, I wasn't aware of Sivia's work until it was announced that she was the special guest for the Frolic. When I did some research on line, I was intrigued by her beaded knits and signed up right away! "Bead Whimsey" did not disappoint! Sivia brought so many examples of her beaded knits. We talked about the different beads available out in the bead wor

Happy New Year!  I really fell out of communication here and on youtube with my 2022 Advent Knit challenge, didn’t I? Well, here are the 3 videos that detail what I had planned, how I progressed and while I didn’t finish as per the schedule I’d set myself….it is finished and I’m happy! This first video details the plan…..and also has updates on my sock knitting. This video was my week 1 update….and then, well, things all got complicated and I disappeared until well, right now! February 17, 2023! Yes, I’ve finished the gorgeousWonderland Shawl by Chloe Thurlow! It’s such an effective design - easy intarsia blocks broken up with a horizontal line…..and finished off with vertical crochet or embroidered lines for that tartan look!
