From This Land - A Westcountry Collection of Knitting Patterns using local British Wool
This collection of knitting patterns is as much about place as it is about craft. Inspired by the South-West of England, particularly its sheep-dotted landscapes, this capsule collection features five unisex knit designs crafted with undyed, locally sourced British wool.
Every yarn used here comes from farms and wool producers in the South-West of England that prioritise animal welfare and land regeneration. Over the course of the past year, I have visited these farms, walked their fields, and met the sheep whose fleece makes up this collection. Each knit design is a reflection of those visits, a tribute to the landscapes, the people and the wool itself.
The Knitting Pattern Collection
From This Land - A Westcountry Collection is made up of five unisex knitting patterns; all practical, comfortable knits perfect for outdoor adventures. The designs consist of: a cardigan, a colourwork tank top/ vest, a scarf, a hat and a pair of fingerless mitts.
Throughout the book, I take you on my journey to each destination, sharing a little about each farm, each design and the inspiration behind the knitting pattern.
The Knit Designs
Each design is inspired by the farm the wool came from. We have:
- Flock Flight mitts / The Woven Briar
- Valley Rooves cardigan / Gullet Farm
- Lichen Stone scarf / Raw Wool Company
- Tree Hay tank / Gutchpool Farm
- Hedge and Wall hat / Lower Hampen Farm
Happy knitting!
