Fernhill is a farm a few miles away from The Lace Knittery and it is a special place to visit. They farm holistically and organically and have transformed the soil on the farm.

This DK yarn from Fyberspates is something special. It is 100% superwash merino wool from Peru (no mulesing!) and is variegated. The dyeing process is twofold making each skein unique. If you want to use more than one in a project just alternate the skeins.
One skein will easily make a scarf and the feel and drape is superb. At The Lace Knittery we have used it in a variety of projects and the colour variations does not distract from any surface design.

A book dedicated to a favourite of The Lace Knittery, this little book not only explores five designs for Haps (shawls). It includes colour work, lace knitting (yay!) and Shetland designs along with history of a remarkable incident and woman.
Another beautiful book from Kate Davies filled eleven designs (I have a couple on my knit list already), belts made on an inkle loom and the usual thought provoking essays and musings. A book that already has a place on my bookshelf.
The island of Islay has inspired The Lace Knittery designs in both yarn and pattern and it continues it’s spell with Kate Davies Designs. This book is filled with a variety of designs from accessories to garments (the socks are on order from my husband to wear with his kilt!) along with essays on the Island culture and history. A beautiful book.

Knit Pro cables for their interchangeable needles. Colour coded for length each cable comes with a pair of end caps which are great for changing the needle into a straight one but also for using the cable as a stitch holder. The length on each cable includes the length of Knit Pro needle tips added on each end.
Knit Pro Zing needles are brightly coloured aluminium needle range. They have silver tips and are seamless and incredibly light and smooth to use. These are the interchangeable range. They fit Knit Pro cables and make straight or circular needles. They are colour coded to different sizes, making them easy to find or pick out of your needles…or at least that’s what we find at The Lace Knittery!
A simply stunning yarn from Krea Deluxe but I may be biased because I love lace yarns, natural fibres and soft, restful colours. This yarn ticks all those boxes and can be used on it’s own or with another. It works well with the Krea wool as well as with silk or other natural yarns but does look and feel stunning on it’s own. I am in love and want to snaffle it all.
Each ball is 20g/240m. 45% silk, 33% mohair, 22% baby alpaca.
