Thanks Georgie! It is such a fabulous shawl. #Repost @tikkiknits (@get_repost) ・・・ This is Botany Bay - a deconstructed triangular shawl pattern I designed for my visit to @skeinsisters last weekend. . It took 2 x 2 skeins of @quinceandco Sparrow in Birch and Lunar and it is now available on Ravelry to purchase (link in my profile) . . This is a summer wrap designed to drape rather than wrap, to shade rather than snuggle. ❤️ it’s delightfully drapey and light as a whisper. Man, linen has me smitten.😍 . . . . . . . . #botanybayshawl #quinceandcosparrow #skeinsisters #knitting #summerknitting #neverenoughshawls #instaknit #igknitters #knittersofinstagram #knitting_inspiration

Would you like to be one of our Sisters Spotlight indie dyers in 2018? This program has been hugely successful this year and we’ve had such fun introducing dyers such as Nunnaba Yarns, CircusTonic Handmade and One Tree Hill Alpacas to our customers. We’re just starting to organise our calendar for 2018 so please get in touch to find out more. And if you’re not a dyer but know one, please share!

Also part of the holiday release from @fringesupplyco is this super cool notions bag. Available now! #Repost @fringesupplyco (@get_repost) ・・・ There are also THREE new pouches in the shop in time for the holidays, starting with this gem, which is a 5-year dream come true for me. This is the pouch I wanted to launch with — my ideal tool pouch — and my talented friends at Winter Session finally made it happen. Made in their Denver workshop exclusively for us, it’s the perfect envelope in natural vegetable-tanned leather with an antiqued-brass snap, sized to fit the tools you never want to be without. (Also great as a wallet or clutch — a stellar gift for just about anyone.) You can find this and the other new goods online at fringesupplyco.com (link in profile) and at select stores around the globe. See the stockists list on the website, or in my previous post. #fringesupplyco #giftsforknitters

Here’s what we’ve been dying to show you! The special Holiday Field Bags. Now available online, and in store. #Repost @fringesupplyco (@get_repost) ・・・ OK, y’all. The Winter 2017 Lookbook is now live (click through from the blog, linked in my @karentempler profile), and the new goods are in the shop. The biggest news of all is the TWO new Field Bags, and yes, you’re seeing right. They are waxed canvas! And not just any waxed canvas — black-watch plaid and camo, my two all-time favorite prints! So they’re simultaneously more hard-wearing and more beautiful than ever before. (Even more stunning than we originally imagined — zoom and swipe to see more.) I can’t tell you how hard it’s been to keep this secret for so long, but today they can finally be yours! They’re available right now at fringesupplyco.com (link in profile) and are either at or en route to the stores listed below— #fringefieldbag #fringesupplyco #giftsforknitters photos by @kathycad

#Repost @tikkiknits (@get_repost) ・・・ Off to Sydney and @skeinsisters with this piece of drape. New pattern to launch at tonight’s trunk show and then over the weekend I’ll be teaching how to change a shawl up; altering shape, substituting stitch pattern; all the things that make your shawl unique. . (Although I do quite like this shawl the way it is. 😉) . . Tickets still available via the link in my profile. . #skeinsisters #quinceandco #quinceandcosparrow #linenshawl #neverenoughshawls #knittersofig #tikkiknits #newpattern #botanybay #boundforsydney
