I used to share many links on this blog and then I just stopped. I’m costantly coming across cool links, and great resources that I wish I had the time to use! I’m also really great at procrastination and putting off hard work.

Of course, I’m assuming I have LOADS of readers and I will continue in that fantasy.

Books and reading resources

Japanese knittings books - YIPPEE. Now I don’t have to guess what they are on Amazon. Aimee/Holly can we get these for the store? Like this one:

Want tips on how to start a fair isle project? Need direction on what to read? Well head on over to the Fair Isle & Norwegian Knitting blog.

How about color theory? Fiber Fool can help you out with that!

Need help coming up with a color palette? This tool does it for you by picking out the colors from a photo! Or look through these.

Does that pattern call for a discontinued Rowan yarn? Yes?! Here you go for substitutions.

Crafty fiberists

Flint Knits: check out her Autumn Aran Sock made from adapting an aran sweater pattern.

Pine Cone Lodge: wonderful fair isle work. She’s doing a pattern out of the Poetry in Stitches book.

Honeybee33’s tutorial on bust darts is complete and detailed. Perfect for those that need some extra consideration in their knitting.

Wanna get technical with that spinning? Start here.

Are you up for a mystery sock challenge? Maia Spins has put together a 4 part pattern: 1, 2, 3, and 4.

Happy FRIDAY!
