Sandra Nesbitt Yorkshire-based designer Sandra loves to explore the possibilities of lace, cables, colourwork and brioche to create her shawls, sweaters and accessories. This month, she has combined graphic lace motifs with a silky yarn for her ‘Siena’ shawl on page 48. Emma Vining Emma is known for her exquisite, unique stitch patterns, many of which have been influenced by historical artefacts and urban environments. Her ‘Aldgate’ top on page 36 uses a twisted stitch pattern to mimic contemporary architectural details. Jennie Atkinson Jennie has a worldwide fanbase, thanks to her feminine designs which have appeared in Vogue Knitting, The Knitter and Rowan’s magazines. Jennie’s latest design for us is a vintage-inspired sleeveless top in a textured stripe pattern. Find it on page 69. Pat Menchini Pat is a prolific…

FOUNDED BY Tracey Whitehead, EweMomma is an artisan dye studio and yarn shop based in Enniskillen, County Fermanagh. Along with an exciting selection of British, Irish and international yarns, Tracey sells her own hand-dyed ranges. How did you come to run a yarn store? “Coming from a banking and accountancy background, I never imagined I’d end up running a yarn shop! I was knitting items to sell, and in 2015 I had a go at dyeing yarn and began selling it on Etsy. I’ve always loved Enniskillen’s Buttermarket, which is a craft and design courtyard housed in a 19th century dairy market, and thought if there was anywhere to sell hand-dyed yarn in Enniskillen, the Buttermarket was the place! After a very long wait, I was offered a craft unit…

Starting with a garter stitch tab, the stitches are set for the three wedges, the three-stitch selvedge edges and the two spine stitches.

PATTERN NOTES Left and right socks are identical except that the cable is worked to the front for the left sock, and to the back for the right. The first round of white after each navy stripe is also worked in stocking stitch – this is because purling creates bumps in the colour of the previous round, so you need a plain round of white before starting the ribbing again to create smooth bands of colour. To avoid a ‘jog’ when you change colours, work the first round in a new colour as normal, but when you knit the second round in that colour, slip the first stitch without knitting it. For more guidance on knitting jogless stripes in the round, see our Masterclass in Issue 185. SOCKS CUFF Using…

PATTERN NOTES CONSTRUCTION This cardigan is worked top down. The front and back shoulders are started separately, then joined to work the body in one piece. The sleeves are worked separately. Once the cardigan has been sewn up, the buttonband is knitted on. ADJUSTMENTS For a longer cardigan, you can just work more rows before you start the cat chart, but be aware that the pockets will also be lower. For a longer cardigan without lowering the pockets, you can either continue working the cats (each one has their own trajectory) or increase the depth of the hem. For longer/shorter arms, add or omit rows before you begin the arm shaping. The cardigan is designed to have at least 20cm (8in) of positive ease. If you’re planning a more fitted…
