Last week we waxed lyrical about one of our favourite colourwork work-horse yarns, The Grey Sheep Co’s Hampshire 4-ply. Surprisingly lofty, with a silky bloom that doesn’t sacrifice stitch definition, there isn’t much we don’t love about this British-made yarn. If you’re looking for inspiration for your next colourwork project, we’ve got tons of ideas.
The final weeks of August are always so wonderful. As we soak up the last of the summer holidays and begin to look towards the season ahead, there tends to be a bit of respite from the daily grind. And of course it’s a perfect time to start lining up your autumn knits!
We just adore August. Everyone slows down a little bit, kids make the most of their time before heading back to school, and this year here in the UK we’re finally getting some nice weather after a wet July!
