One of my favourite sweaters that I’ve knit is Tegna designed by Caitlin Hunter.
I also think that it is one of the most flattering sweaters that I have knit. It is definitely, my sweater of choice when I want to look great but be comfortable as well![Read More]
This is the 11th of the “Travels Down Memory Lane Series”. Over the last couple of years, there hasn’t been an opportunity for holidays away. So I decided to look at some of the posts I’d planned to write, and for various reasons, I hadn’t.

The Love Note Sweater is an enormously popular sweater designed by TinCanKnits.
It is a light airy sweater and a pleasure to wear but not on too warm a day as the kid silk will stick to you! For the weight of the sweater, it is actually very warm and cosy.

In August, while I was helping my niece finish quilting her beautiful patchwork quilt, she asked me if I’d knit a fair isle vest for her for Christmas.

So an exciting knitting journey of discovery began.[Read More]

A few years ago, I made a Mitred Squares Cushion for my mother-in-law as a present. It was an enjoyable project using leftover sock yarns. As anyone who has been reading the posts on the Knitting Squirrel for a while will realise I love knitting socks And anyone who knits a lot of socks will know that there is always yarn leftover from these projects.
