Wool People 8 is Here

November 18, 2014 by Sarah White

Check out Wool People 8 from Brooklyn Tweed.Wool People 8, the collection from Brooklyn Tweed, was released today and it’s full of designs for pullovers, cardigans, hats and shawls that will keep you warm and cozy through the winter. The inspiration was knits for cabin living, with some projects that are easy and versatile and others that are more demanding for snowed-in weekend days when you have plenty of time to concentrate.

You can see the whole collection in the look book and learn more on the blog, but some of my favorites include:

Karolina Eckerdal’s Stratum pullover (pictured on the cover) with horizontal stripes that go all the way down the three-quarter sleeves and a pretty, flared body

Eaves by Melissa Wehrle, a different, more classic take on stripes with an interesting short row shoulder detail that spices up the knitting

Flight by Sarah Pope, a subtle fair isle circular yoke sweater

Yoko Hatta’s Field, a chunky cardigan worked in Honeycomb stitch with a sweet shawl collar

Maurits by Andrea Rangel, a bountiful cowl with allover colorwork that sings in the sample worked in green and white

The pretty, stripy open cardigan Skew by Kyoko Nakayohi

As usual, patterns can be purchased individually from Brooklyn Tweed directly or on Ravelry. They run $7 or $8 each.

See anything that catches your eye? I’d love to hear about it!

Bookmark Knitting Patterns

It’s always a good time for a bookmark, and even more so as we start thinking about back to school time. Reading is more fun when you have a pretty bookmark. That’s just science. 

Plus bookmarks are fast, portable, and a fun way to try out different skills. So let’s get busy with some bookmark knitting patterns!

This set of three bookmark knitting patterns from Lucky Fox Knits includes one worked in garter stitch, an easy eyelet lace and one with eyelets running down the center. I love the little I-cord for the tassel!

Add a simple textured stitch to a bookmark to make it a little more fun. This one from Franciscan Gypsy is called the paper towel bookmark, and I’ll bet you can pick it out above just from that description. This one calls for fingering weight yarn. 

Another pretty allover pattern is this slip-stitch lace design from Handy Little Me. Inspired by Taylor Swift’s Speak Now, it’s a sweet little design worked in fingering weight yarn. This one is a little extra fun because it has two tassels. 

I love this undulating wheat ear bookmark pattern from KMKnits Shop. It’s an interesting stitch pattern perfect for advanced beginner knitters, and it uses sport weight yarn. 

A lot of knit bookmarks have a bit of lace, and they’re actually a great way to pick up some lace knitting skills on a tiny project that doesn’t have to be perfect. I like this lacy one from Val Knitting Shop, which is inspired by daisy petals. It calls for fingering weight yarn. 

The Jasmine Bookmark from Valentina Fezova-Georgieva is another pretty lace pattern that’s a little more complex but still totally doable. It calls for fingering weight yarn and is available on Ravelry.

If you want a more literal inspiration of flowers in your bookmark pattern, try the pair of floral bookmarks form Warm and KnittedS. One has a little rosette and the other just has leaves. They look like I-cord but they’re actually worked flat on two needles and will stitch up in no time for a last minute gift or to tuck into your latest read.
