#swatchaweek: @owool Balance. This blocked out with super neat stitches. It feels a bit crisp from the cotton, but still supple. I got this yarn years ago (a sweater quantity I’ve been saving 😄), so I don’t know if it was just this batch, but it really bled like crazy when I washed it. The water turned completely blue & another light-colored swatch that was in the water with it got a big purple blotch on it. I’ve used several other colors & none of them have bled at all. I wasn’t planning to use this with other colors & I definitely won’t now. Just gotta be sure I wash my finished sweater by itself. Video coming tomorrow. . . . P.S. while you’re here, I can’t miss the chance to remind you that early enrollment for Knit Stars ends at midnight tonight! Don’t miss your chance to get $50 off! 🙌⭐️ . . . #swatchproject #swatchoftheweek #swatch #andrearangelknits #yarn #owool #cotton #wool #owoolbalance #knitlove #knitting
I’ve been really impressed with some of the creations folks are using AlterKnit Stitch Dictionary for. Here’s a repost from @kroopa_ that I absolutely love. The motif is Cottonwood. 🌿 Link to AlterKnit in my profile. 👉 . . . P.S. I have a little book giveaway for a signed copy of AlterKnit going on my blog right now. 😉 . . .

#swatchaweek: I knit up a swatch in @owool Balance & it’s super soft. The fabric has a tweedy look & is really cohesive. I want to try this with cables. I’ve got a sweater quantity, so... . . #swatch #swatchproject #swatchoftheweek #andrearangelknits #owool #cotton #wool #yarn #knitlove #knitstagram
This was a few days ago, but I’m really liking having big pops of color (that orange!) with neutrals. The sweater is Traverse, which was designed for guys, but I love the roomy fit on me. (Plus, I wear my @brooklyntweed Shelter sweaters more than any others.) And the scarf is Folded Paper Wrap, a super lightweight delicate thing knit in @anzulaluxuryfibers Breeze, a silk/linen blend. It’s got wonderfully geometric lace & symmetry & goes with everything, fancy or chill. Check out the pattern shop on my website for both patterns. . . . If you want to get confident with your colorwork knitting to make sweaters like Traverse, don’t miss the early bird pricing for Knit Stars 3.0! You’ll get to learn from me & from other colorwork experts like @mjmucklestone & @arnecarlos! You’re going to get an immense wealth of information! Early enrollment closes Friday.
