winter knitwear - patterns - make your own

Are you knitting yet?

November is pretty much the start of the knitting season for me. I just started a spencer with burgundy yarn.

For inspiration and patterns you can take a look at my ETSY SHOP.

knitting pattern - leftover spencer (english version)

NEW DESIGN

The knitted leftover spencer!

Yesterday I already launched the knitting pattern in my native language, today the English version is ready.

The good thing is that you already have the required yarn in stock. You don't have to buy any yarn at all, it doesn't matter what colors you use, because in the end your version will be perfect and unique.

So if you feel like making it too? Jump to my Etsy shop and promise to show me your version, once it's finished!

breipatroon restjes spencer

Nieuw seizoen, nieuw breipatroon!

Van restjes garen van voorgaande brei- en haakprojecten, maakte ik eerder deze maand een gebreide spencer. Het leuke is dat je op deze manier de kleine restjes opgebruikt en dat er hierdoor een heel verrassend effect ontstaat. Alles kan!

Inmiddels heb ik er een breipatroon van gemaakt in het Nederlands. De Engelse vertaling volgt binnenkort.

Heb je zin om ook een spencer te breien met ongebruikt garen? Je kunt het breipatroon (met eenvoudig te volgen beschrijving en veel foto's) downloaden in mijn ESTY SHOP of bestellen via een e-mail naar info@woodwoolstool.com

the tiny orange mini cooper

The tiny orange Mini Cooper. This weeks cool crochet project.

Pippa asked if I wanted to make a traditional Christmas sweater for Liam.

So I knitted a tiny tweed spencer and I made a crochet version of our orange Mini Cooper, which he thinks is a really cool car!

Knitted vests are the ideal garment of any between-the-seasons fashion.

Style as a singlet, or layer away! This cropped vest top goes perfect with anything.

striped spencer - knitting pattern

The ongoing trend of the knitted spencer!

A perfect piece in your wardrobe, diagonal stripes, horizontal stripes, checkered or unicolor.

Actually you can let your imagination run wild with this basic spencer pattern.

These are the two diagonally striped spencers that I recently knitted. The first one I made it with yarn leftovers in size S and the second one I knitted with pink tweedyarn in size M.

The spencer trend will continue this summer, it truly is a stylish item. You can simply mix it with anything. Mix, don't match. Everything is possible.

Everyone needs a spencer in their wardrobe! You can download the knitted spencer pattern in my Etsy shop. Available in size S and M and in English and Dutch version. It's easier than you think.

checkered spencer - knitting pattern

N E W in the Etsy shop: CHECKERED SPENCER knitting pattern!

The woolen spencer has been out of fashion for a long time, but it actually is a great piece for fall and winter. You can easily combine it with anything. Wear it over a t-shirt with long sleeves or under a jacket or cardigan. It's perfect with a skirt, but can also be combined with pants.

Preferably wear it with a tartan item, everything is possible, the crazier the better...

This knitted checkered spencer is knitted in one piece.

For this spencer I've used tweed yarn in dusky pink and dark green. You can buy the tweed yarn for example at the Dutch textile super brand Zeeman and it's one of my favorite yarns. It's machine washable, super soft and comfortable to wear.

instant inspiration

Inspiration comes instantly when I enter my new workspace.

The wool from the B A Z A R seem to call; pick me, pick me...

The newly designed spencers I knitted recently turned out so cool! I'm writing the pattern and will show the new knitted spencers soon.

In the meantime my new 'atelier' is beginning to take shape. So far it's already so much fun to be here and I get loads of inspiration in this space...
