I always have to smile at the names of collections. It’s not even officially fall yet and the Deep Fall issue of Knitty just went live. But if you want to knit things to wear when it’s truly fall and into winter, you’re going to need to get started now.
If you’re interested you need no more words from me, but I always like to pick a few faves, so here are mine:
Hugga by Carolyn Noyes, described as a neck, arm and hand warmer all in one, it’s a big shrug with extra long arms and holes for the thumbs (and a bit of lace for cuteness).
Emma Nora O’Neil’s Wild Clover shawl, a pretty lace pattern with bobbles for texture that does, in fact, look like clover in flower.
The Krydda lace cardigan by Madeline Nilsson, a long, pretty, top-down cardigan with a bold, pretty lace pattern (love the color on this one, too!).
Kristen Jancuk’s two-color Volteado socks, worked in a fun (and warm) sideways zig-zag pattern.
And Opus the Octopus by Cate Carter-Evans, because, come on, it’s a knit octopus. And it’s completely adorable.
In addition, Franklin Habit shares a story and a pattern for a baby sweater from Weldon’s Practical Knitter, and Miriam Felton talks about joining knit and crocheted motifs into one pretty scarf, among other goodies.
See something you like? I’d love to hear about it.
