With Britain seeing the hottest September day in 105 years, it’s hard to settle in with our yarn projects as evenings get darker, but as we all know full well; winter is coming.

It’s knit along time again! What better way to mark the summer months than joining in with knitters all over the world and enjoying a project together… and there will be prizes! We’re casting on our Piccadilly Shawls on Saturday 4th June, the day that shawl designer Justyna Lorkowska comes to Loop to teach! So come and join in the fun on our Ravelry Forum and on Instagram with the hashtag LoopPiccadillyKAL

Introducing Teazel, the latest fabulous addition to our ever growing collection of Loop patterns. Pretty pops of lace curve round the swingy silhouette of this gorgeous cardigan designed for us by the talented Bristol Ivy.   Bristol’s patterns draw on her interest in tailoring, focusing on structured lines and flattering shapes and Teazel is no exception. With the eyelet details swooping down to a soft flared shape, the cardigan shows the subtly hand dyed variation of Shalimar Breathless Cush (shown here in the colour Foggy Bottom). Want to know more? Well, who better to tell us about the design than Bristol herself!

With a swoop of lace and the prettiest stitch details, Piccadilly is a romantic crescent shaped shawl designed by Justyna Lorkowska for Loop. The luxuriously soft Eden Cottage Yarns Hayton, is striped together, dotted with eyelets and finished with a delicate picot edge. We caught up with Justyna to find out more – make sure you read to the end of the post to find out how you could be one of three readers who can win a PDF copy of the pattern!
