Here's a spectacular finished object, knitted by Jaclyn Allen, a good friend of This Is Knit. It's from Boo Knits' gorgeous Wintersweet pattern, which comes as no surprise: stunning lace, lots of beading! This example is made from Juniper Moon Findley laceweight, and the colour is Hyacinth. At a generous 730 metres a ball, there's more than enough to knit...

Babies need blankets, and we're convinced that the best blankets are handmade. We've two to show you, both beautiful, both practical and each completely different.

The thing we love most here is seeing what our yarn turns into after it leaves us. We're always delighted. Sometimes, however, we're simply astounded. And this is one of those times. A few years ago, Clare (clareblove on Ravelry) decided to add some new skills to her repertoire. She took a colourwork class with us (we were still in...

We've been amazed at the creativity of the tree decorations we've received for our Christmas tree - actually, we were awfully glad we were drawing a winner at random, because it would have been near impossible to pick a winner otherwise. But we have a winner, and it's Ruth from Cork, who sent us that delightful little ornament, complete with...
