Learn more »Fairag Cardigan from Shetland Wool Week Annual
Another beautiful knit from Shetland Wool Week Annual. Read about this interesting design below. Introducing the Fairag cardigan, which is the work of talented knitwear designer Shetland Handspun. Fairag is a wonderfully versatile short box shape with drop shoulders, and can be made fitted or loose, with alternating lace and cable patterns in the body and as a sleeve detail. The lace motif is a modified Shetland Fern. There are options for either short or long sleeves, and it has been knit using The Wool Brokers 2 ply jumper weight and also in a chunkier version using Jamiesons of Shetland Double Knitting. In Shetland, ferns are called trowie cairds. Trows can be mischievous creatures. The trows are said to use fern fronds to card wool. Fairag is a Shetland word used instead of trow. In the past, many would not say the word for fear of the trows creating havoc. So, never say trow when knitting this cardigan. Wool: The Wool Brokers 2 ply Jumper weight or Jamiesons of Shetland DK. @whatusanseesphotography

Learn more »Pompom Mag Moon and Turtle
Arriving mid-August Posted Withregram • Pompom Mag Say hello to your new favourite designer duo, Sachi Kobee + Kiyomibee! We’ve long admired the twins’ talent to infuse unique and contemporary design details with classic knitwear styles, and we’re honoured to publish their first collaborative book, Moon and Turtle: Knitting Patterns with Variations! Moon and Turtle contains 9 knitting patterns (4 garments, 5 accessories) which showcase an edgy, urban aesthetic! All the designs are customisable - think tall versions, adjustable sleeve-lengths, different necklines, and gender-neutral patterns - so that they can be worn by as many people as possible! The duality associated with identical twins is thoughtfully embedded into every aspect of Moon and Turtle. From the designs to the title of the book itself, there’s a quiet harmony in the idea that two things or people can be visually similar but also appreciably distinct. We were charmed by Moon and Turtle, and we’re sure you will be, too! Moon and Turtle’s striking cover star is Kordy, shown here in Peace Fleece’s Worsted. Cover photo + graphic design: Oliver James Brooks Music [The cover of Moon and Turtle rests on a white background. The cover shows Kiyomi and Sachiko standing back to back wearing Kordy in inverse colorways. The title is in the top left corner of the cover, with the secondary part towards the bottom left.]
