Show Notes for Crochet Podcast Episode 61

 

Hello! Marta here! I know, I know it’s been AGES, but I’m back podcasting with a bumper bundle of crochet and knitting projects to share with you. You can find the episode on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/7hHOxEj099w

The knitted jumper I’m wearing is my recently finished Little Bousta Yoke by Gudrun Johnston. I knitted it in 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 teether thingy which is fresh off the hook will become my next pattern release. It was crocheted in Stylecraft Cotton + Bamboo (I knew I’d find the name once I started searching!). I thoroughly recommend this yarn for baby items and amigurumi projects, it feels beautiful.

The crocheted socks I’ve (almost) finished were made following my own pattern, Lazy Days Socks. I used a subtly variegated yarn from West Green Loft Yarns. You can find my sock pattern here:  https://martamitchelldesigns.com/products/lazy-days-socks

And the knitted socks I’ve just finished were made following Stephen West’s Pierre Socks pattern, which I’d thoroughly recommend! The yarn for these was Lang Yarns SOXX which I know my sister purchased at The Woolly Brew, Pittenweem.

The cowl which I forgot to show off properly will be my March pattern launch, coinciding with The Scottish Wool Producers Showcase on the 22nd March. Find out more about the yarn and this fabulous event on the website:  https://thescottishyarnfestival.com/

The Christmas Eve Box was from Rachael at Sew Ray Me: https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/SewRayMeUK

Future plans! Next up I plan to cast on the Tresoro sweater by Isabell Kraemer and I have gorgeous non-superwash merino from Crafternoon Treats set aside for this project. I hope to return to more regular podcasting too - I’ll aim for once a month initially, see how I get on from there.

If I've missed anything or you'd like more info, please do give me a shout! 

Until the next time, happy crocheting,

Marta xx
