Droplet Socks - a new free pattern
A few weeks ago Wei Siew of the Kiwiyarns blog sent me an exciting email - a sock pattern designed with Knitsch Sock! It also contained a special request for a fresh batch of West Janney.
The Droplet Socks pattern is exquisite. I adore the texture and the directional pattern design. I'm a sucker for anything that stands out against a reverse stocking stitch background. And the best part of all? It's free! Hooray!

Thanks so much for choosing Knitsch for your pattern Wei Siew! I can't wait to knit my own pair. If you fancy knitting your own lichen-inspired socks, West Janney is now back in stock (along with lots of other colours, hooray!).
Warm Woollen Mittens
Is it 'woollen' or 'woolen'? I don't know. Either way, it's definitely time to be wearing them. I've never been much of mitten knitter. I'm not sure why.
So I asked on Facebook for some pattern suggestions, and here's what was suggested:
Susie Rogers Reading Mitts by Susie Rogers (free!)
Birdies Mitts by Julia Davies (free pattern!)
Rainbow Kid Mittens by Emilie Williams (free pattern!)
Snap Dragon Flip-top Mitts by Ysolda Teague
And one person requested an image of kittens in mittens, so how about kittens on mittens?
Meow Mitts by Tiny Owl Knits
Happy knitting!
