Thank you very much for joining Yunique Crafts website and your kind supports.
February is here, the month of Valentine's Day.
I wish everyone a happy and cozy Valentine's Day with your loved ones.
PATTERN RELEASE UPDATES
The Ebony Cardigan pattern, introduced during the tester call in the previous newsletter, is now available.
DESIGN STORY
I aimed to design an Ebony cardigan that felt as soft as a watercolour painting, versatile enough to complement any outfit, and effortlessly stylish even when worn casually.
I wanted it to be a straightforward yet engaging project for knitters.
The satisfaction of blending two different shades to create a final product was immense.
Similar to natural hues, Le petit Lambswool reveals slightly varying shades depending on the light.
The soft, fluffy mohair not only adds enjoyment to the knitting process but also enhances the design.
THANKS TO TESTERS
This pattern came to fruition thanks to the invaluable contributions of dedicated and truly supportive testers. The advice and suggestions from knitters living all over the world, each offering unique perspectives during the testing phase, made for a truly meaningful journey.
If you're an experienced tester, or even if you've never tried it but are interested, please fill out the tester knitter form and apply. You'll always be among the first to be contacted when a new design is ready for testing.
EXCITING NEWS
We are delighted to announce that the Ebony Cardigan has been introduced to Designer Friends of Biches & Bûches. Isn't that something special?
Biches & Bûches kindly presented the original wool bundles, offered a beautiful yarn suggestion and colour ideas.
If you're a knitter who feels overwhelmed by all the lovely yarns and struggles to choose, this will be a very helpful kind recommendation.
KNITTING CLUB IN-PERSON GATHERING
The Local Knitters club is holding its February gathering on Tuesday morning,
the 25th, open to all who wish to participate.
For nearly two years, we've been convening monthly in Toronto,
though we occasionally miss a month.
Our aim is to create a close-knit community of knitting enthusiasts who also appreciate crafts, through these casual meet-ups.
We will meet at a friendly and cute local bakery cafe.
12 Centre St, Thornhill, ON L4J 1E9
You may grab a warm morning coffee and maybe a fresh pastry,
as you often do with your friends.
Please bring your knitting project that you are currently working on
and we will chat about this and that.
For more information, please read the link below.
Have a lovely weekend.
Thank you.
Wishing you peace,
Yunique Crafts
