Show Notes for Podcast Episode 59: Two Sweaters in Progress

Hello! Marta here, I have a sweater filled episode for you today! I’ve been crocheting and knitting like crazy on 2 garments and can’t wait to show you them plus news of a pattern release from me!

I’ve finished and blocked my Printer Ink Scarf (my own pattern) which is worked up in gorgeous minis from Sealy MacWheely! I will make it my goal to sew in the last few ends and get it blocked for the next episode! Here’s a link to Katie’s online shop where you’ll find the details of the bricks & mortar shop too:  https://sealymacwheely.com

The knitted jumper I’m working on the sleeve of is the Little Bousta Yoke by Gudrun Johnston. I'm using Shetland jumper weight wool from various sources, some from old cones, some Jamieson's which I purchased in The Woolly Brew, Pittenweem. Find the pattern on Ravelry here:  https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/little-bousta-yoke

The crocheted jumper which is working up super duper fast is made following the design on the cover of Moorit, issue 1! The pattern is called Cumulo and it’s by Liliana Buce-Chmelko. I’m using Drops Andes which I hadn’t used before but which I’m finding fabulous to work with! Here’s a link to Moorit where you can still find digital copies of issue 1:  https://mooritmag.com/collections/all

I’m making good progress with my new Tunisian crochet project! It’s the Rancher Shawl by Toni Lipsey   @TLYarnCrafts   and I’m really enjoying this slightly different technique to regular crochet! 

The yarn I’m using is from Pigment & Ply:  https://www.pigmentandply.com  and For The Love Of Yarn:  https://fortheloveofyarn.co.uk 

My Cornflower Cowl is being released the same day as this YouTube video! The code CORNFLOWER will give you 25% off on both sites - you’ll find it on Ravelry here:  https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/cornflower-cowl-4 and on my website here:  https://martamitchelldesigns.com/products/cornflower-cowl-crochet-pattern 

Let me know in the comments what you've been working on as you've been spending time with me, I'd love to know. If I've missed anything or you'd like more info, please do give me a shout! 

Until the next episode, happy crocheting,

Marta xx
