linen yarn but slowly the project began to take form until i had a substantial piece and could really start to understand the beauty of linen fabric and then came time for sleeves which admittedly took longer than they should have but then sweet completion and this fit raveled here this summer my linen tee has been getting much wear it s true what they say about linen softer with each wash wear it s beauty truly lies in its drape and feel which only grows softer and comfier with each wear here s the inspiration tee with the handknit tee math is a beautiful thing my friends and for those wondering yes i will be writing up a pattern but not immediately it will be something i work on this winter for release early spring there are some other projects taking my time these days more on

pinterest posted by french press knits at 8 00 am 25 comments sunday april 24 2016 linen stitching for some time i ve been wanting to remake one of my favorite summer shirts in a hand knit version now that i m home with the kids full time i have been able to find extra time for knitting or sometimes just thinking about knitting that s an accomplishment too this picture is from a few years ago but it s the best i could find that would give you an idea of the shirt it s a lightweight knit fabric with clean simple lines it fits perfectly and i feel beyond comfortable in it i actually have the shirt in both white and black and both get a fair amount of wear especially in the warmer months enter shannon cook s aka very shannon tttkal many of you are probably familiar for those who are not it stands for tops tanks tees knit along and it was the perfect excuse to finally see my project through to fruition since the store bought version fits perfectly i started with careful measurements and multiple swatches i decided to knit the shirt in quince co sparrow the yarn is a fingering weight linen and is quite a difference when compared to my normal 100 wool there s a totally different feel when working with linen yarn it kind of gives my fingers this funny tingling feeling like you know your feet get that weird prickly sensation when you re standing at the edge of super high building what am i the only one it s sort of like that in my hands i m learning to appreciate it for what it is something else i ve learned linen looks messy as you knit it makes you question your existence as a knitter and wonder if the bloom and halo of wool is just a crutch to hide your stitch flaws a little caulk a little paint make a builder what he ain t i feel like we need one of these for knitting but then you wash your knitting yes wash not just block i m talking full on washer and dryer and you re left with uniform stitches with a bit of slub and a drape that is out of this world tomorrow i have a giveaway kicking off stay tuned for your chance to win a summer knitting kit email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest posted by french press knits at 8 51 pm 3 comments wednesday march 16 2016 lamplight mittens just a quick post to alert the knitting world to a new mitten pattern i released today a classic mitten design featuring a subtle cable pattern contrasting lined cuffs add warmth and a pop of color to give these mittens a touch of unexpected luxury starting with a provisional cast on and contrasting yarn the inner cuff is knitted before switching to the worsted weight yarn after completing the outer cuff the inner cuff is turned in and joined as you continue to knit the body of the mitten utilizing just one skein of quince co owl and a small amount of fingering weight yarn this project will fly of your needles and onto your hands before the spring warmth has time to set in find them on ravelry now pin it email this blogthis share
