  • A little more seasonal sock yarn for you...this time it's some very Autumnal locally hand-dyed yarn from @lilypondyarns With shade names like Bonkers Conkers and Fruit Crumble, they'll be perfect for luxurious socks once the weather cools a little and the leaves start changing colour. This is just a teaser (aren't we mean to you?!), we'll have lots more pictures once they're in. #spinayarndevon #spinayarn #knitting #knittersofdevon #knittersofinstagram #LYS #independentyarnshop #pandemicknitting #lilypondyarns #handdyedyarn #autumn #autumnlove #sockyarn #handdyedsockyarn

  • This week's #WIPWednesday is a sneak peek of a project from the coming Rowan Magazine 68, which has been delayed until 1st September this year due to the global lockdown. We've been sworn to secrecy but this is a little teaser! If you'd like to make sure you get a copy, just give us a call and we'll be sure to contact you as soon as copies arrive in the shop.
  • Have you knitted our Spin a Yarn Baby's First 4-ply Cardi pattern yet? 👶 It's a cardigan suitable for babies 0-6 months old, and includes charts for four different designs for the pockets - heart, tiny flowers, boat, anchor. It's been knitted here in Lang Merino 200, but it would be equally lovely in Adriafil Genziana or Rowan Baby Cashsoft Merino 😍 all of which we stock. All products are available through our website, or give us a shout on 01626 836203 if you'd rather place your order over the phone. #langmerino200 #babyknits #babycardi #spinayarndevon #spinayarn #knitting #knittersofdevon #knittersofinstagram #LYS #independentyarnshop #lockdownknits #lockdownknitting
  • Today we're sharing a beautiful free shawl pattern with you - the Odyssey Shawl by @jojilocat It's a DK weight shawl designed by Joji as a thank you to the knitting community - isn't that generous? She's used three muted shades of yarn to create an ombre effect - but you can pick your own bright or contrasting shades to reflect your own personal style. We've got quite a few DK yarns in stock which we think would work well with this pattern: Adriafil Duo and Duo Plus, Adriafil KnitCol, Adriafil Bucaneve, Lang Merino 120, Rowan Alpaca Soft DK, or Rowan SoftYak. You need about 617m total. You can find all these yarns on our website (link in bio) but if you'd like to knit this and need any help working out the yarn you'll need, just give us a shout. The pattern can be downloaded for free here from Ravelry - just search "Odyssey Shawl" Do have a browse of all her patterns on Ravelry too - she has many lovely wearable patterns, and if you need any help buying them we are able to sell them to you via the Ravelry In-Store Sales service. 📷: Joji Locatelli #spinayarndevon #spinayarn #knitting #knittersofdevon #knittersofinstagram #LYS #independentyarnshop #lockdownknits #lockdownknitting #jojilocatelli #odysseyshawl
  • Anyone else digging out WIPs from long-term hibernation? This WYS brioche scarf which Esther started a rather long time ago has just come out of hiding. Truth be told, it might end up as a cowl instead, but at least it'll be off the needles 😉 The pattern is Soutache by Carol Sunday. #wys #westyorkshirespinners #wensleydalegemsdk #spinayarndevon #wipwednesday #briocheknitting
  • Here's another adorable free Rowan pattern - the Matilda hat, knitted in Rowan Baby Cashsoft Merino. The pattern includes sizes from newborn to 3 years, making it a perfect choice for any new additions to the family this Spring. The pattern can be downloaded from the Rowan website - just visit www.knitrowan.com and search 'Matilda'. To buy the yarn, just visit our website, give us a shout on 01626 836023 or email hello@spinayarndevon.co.uk. 📷: Rowan Yarns #knitting #knittersofdevon #LYS #independentyarnshop #lockdownknits #lockdownknitting #knitrowan #matildahat #babycashsoftmerino
  • Gorgeous finished project alert! Customer Mandy shared photos of this lovely shawl she recently made with us.

You can DM them directly us, tag us, or email them to hello@spinayarndevon.co.uk. #spinayarndevon #spinayarn #knitting #knittersofdevon #knittersofinstagram #LYS #independentyarnshop #lockdownknits #lockdownknitting #adriafilyarn #gartersahoy #gartersahoyshawl #adriafilknitcol
