Wow, that sounds incredible!
Both look wonderful! I especially love the one on the left, so much colour and texture. 🥰

#Knitsky I’m curious, are you knitting brights, pastels, or something cosy and muted?
I’m currently working on a knit for my son with one of our mottled Blasta shades.

Choosing your sweater size? #knitsky
Don’t forget about ease! A little extra room can make a sweater more comfortable, drape beautifully, and become one you wear again and again
How to add ease:
Thank you!

#Knitsky, how do you like your sweaters to fit?
Oversized and snuggly, or closer to the body?
I’m always curious, what knitter's go-to sweater style is!

The Row by Row Cardigan is built on deliberate imbalance.
Short rows aren’t just shaping, they control the fabric, create colour, make the cardigan move in more than one direction.
Sounds like your kind of knitting #knitsky?

Short Rows in the round can be tricky to learn how to finish. Here’s my tutorial that shows how to work the remaining double stitches, so your shaping is seamless, and your knitting stays smooth. #knitsky
Yesterday I was talking about transitional knits, and it reminded me of this vlog where I shared my favourite versatile handknit pattern: youtu.be/pWieiKpHOqk
Let her bag with a striped hand-knot cardigan inside, two skeins of yarn and an old book.
What does March make you think of #knitsky?
This time of year, I always start thinking about transitional knits... bright colours, versatile layers, sports weight yarn. Like this! 👀

#Knitsky my love affair with short row colourwork continues…
🗓️ Save the date: March 5th
You’ve knit before… But never like this!
A white cup and saucer with pink flowers on it, filled with tea, sat on a wooden table in front of a pile of yarn skeins.
I’m curled up with a cuppa and my current project, there’s something about weekend knitting that just hits differently #knitsky.
Finish the sentence: “My knitting is best enjoyed with _______.”
Tea, chocolate, or a comfy sofa? Let us know!
Beautiful work!
With all this sweater talk, I wanted to share my tutorial where I chat through how to convert a top-down garment to bottom-up (and vice versa).
It’s handy if you like experimenting with construction:

There’s something about a cosy, oversized cardigan that just screams March in Ireland to me!
By the way, I recently shared a free YouTube course for this pattern, check it out here: www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...
You too! 🥰

Right now, would you rather knit a pullover or a cardigan?
If you voted cardigan, you’re in luck! A brand-new cardigan is coming soon, with a sneaky teaser later this week for our newsletter subscribers: stolenstitches.com/pages/newsle...
If you go to your profile, when you scroll down slightly you will notice three lines appear on the top left of your profile. When you click the three lines a drop down menu should appear where you will see a heading ‘Saved’. 😊
Great tip!
You’re so welcome!
It’s one of my favourite hacks!
Holes in your sweater underarms? #knitsky
Here's the small adjustment I make that helps avoid holes and keeps your underarms snug and tidy.
It makes sense to me!
😂 I got the general idea!
I think that would work really well!

#Knitsky let’s talk sweater care!
What are your go-to tricks for keeping sweaters looking their best?
My top tips:
1️⃣ Don’t overwash.
2️⃣ Fold instead of hang.
3️⃣ Tackle pilling early.
Thank you!!

#Knitsky I’m so excited to share that my Vesuvius Cowl has been reborn!
The yarn I had previously knit it in has been discontinued so I thought I’d reknit it in my Nua Worsted yarn, shade ‘Lilac’: https://stolenstitches.com/products/vesuvius
What do you think?
