New pattern - Grayswood Scarf

Grayswood Scarf Knitting Pattern by Moira Ravenscroft - www.wyndlestrawdesigns.com
I have just uploaded a new pattern which is perfect for Spring-time layering. The Grayswood Scarf  features a delicate reversible lace pattern and is knit in a deliciously soft wool mix yarn which is just perfect for this time of year.

The yarn includes merino and cashmere for warmth and is blended with a touch of Tencel which gives a wonderful crispness and drape to the finished item. 
The pattern includes three different sizes and is shown in a rich dark blue colour or an eye-catching silver grey.

The stitch I used here is another beautiful pattern from our book, Reversible Knitting Stitches. Please click here to order your copy!

New Blogpost: A scarf for the end of winter

Nadine Scarf - Knitting pattern by Anna ravenscroft - www.kikuknits.com
I love Anna's new scarf pattern - the Nadine Scarf, featuring a wonderfully textural stitch from our Reversible Knitting Stitches book.

​This is the Irish Squares stitch pattern with undulating ribs forming around blocks of Irish Moss Stitch. This combination creates a dense fabric which traps heat making it wonderfully warm – just perfect for this time of year.

​The pattern looks complicated to knit but is surprisingly easy once you get going.

Please click here for more details about our Reversible Knitting Stitches book. The book is available as a print book, an E-book or a package of the two from my Etsy store. 

New Blogpost: In an icy quiet

. . . in which I muse upon a wintry day and the poem "Snow"  by Walter de la Mare:
Photo by Tim Ravenscroft, www.wyndlestrawdesigns.com
No breath of wind, no gleam of sun – 
Still the white snow whirls softly down.
Twig and bough and blade and thorn
All in an icy quiet, forlorn. 

Whispering, rustling, through the air
On sill and stone roof — everywhere,
It heaps its powdery crystal flakes,
Of every tree a mountain makes;   

‘Til pale and faint a
t shut of day

Stoops from the West one wint’ry ray,
And, feathered in fire where ghosts the moon,
A robin shrills his lonely tune; 
​
And from her dark-gnarled Yew-tree lair

Flits she who had been in hiding there.

To see more of my DH Tim's photos which so beautifully captured that snowy day and recalled this poem to my mind, please click here.
