This is my work space - where all the woolly things happen 🧶🧶🍁🍂

I am working on my autumn 🍂 kit for 2026 at the moment. This kit is called Forest Walk and I’m hoping it will be released in a couple of weeks. Just working on the second sock. It is made up of: 45% alpaca (for softness), 30% polyamide (for strength and durability), and 25% wool (for warmth and shape stability). It is the softest fluffiest yarn I’ve used yet and I’m sure you will all love it! 🥰

This time last year I was having fun designing my Apple Slice socks. I think these are perfect for knitting in September or for a teacher’s present!🤭🍎They’re quite simple to knit and I used a self-striping sock yarn from Drops Design Fabel which is super easy to get hold of wherever you are in the world! I’ll put links to the sock pattern in the comments.❤️

🧶 M1L or M1R — which one always makes you stop and think?

👇 Comment INCREASE and I’ll send it straight to your messages!

If knitting increases still feel a little confusing, this tutorial breaks down M1L (make one left) and M1R (make one right) step by step so you can see exactly how each one is worked and which direction it leans.

It’s a handy guide to keep nearby whenever these increases show up in a pattern.

Want the tutorial?
