Arwen Gets a Facelift (pattern updates galore)

Arwen pattern updates

If you have followed me for long, you will know that I have been updating some of my older patterns. Some patterns only needed a simple change of layout. But some of my older patterns, like my popular Arwen series of accessories, needed a full on facelift since my writing style has changed quite a bit.

I updated Arwen wrap a while ago so the rest of the series was long overdue for their updates. I am happy to say that Arwen has received a complete makeover – updated instructions, new charts, extended sizing, new photography, and other bonuses. My friend Luciana knit fresh samples. Don’t you love the gorgeous wine colorway of Valley Yarns Northfield? You will be seeing the completely revised and freshly tech edited versions of Arwen cloche, Arwen fingerless gloves, Arwen slipper socks, Arwen cowl, and Arwen keyhole scarf appearing on Ravelry starting next week. If you already have a copy of the patterns, you will receive the updates automatically. You won’t have to do a thing. If you don’t have them in your library, grab your copy today before the price increases. Here is the link.

Knitting Tools shop update

You may have noticed my Etsy shop has been in vacation mode for most of the month. This is because I have decided to host my Knitting Tools shop on my website. This change will allow me improve your shopping experience in several ways. It gives me more flexibility to organize my products. And it allows me to offer some great knitting tools that weren’t an option before. You will still see my line of project bags and stitch markers, but coming soon you will also be able to purchase print versions of my patterns and books, pattern kits, and hopefully soon, yarn. And you won’t have to remember another web address when you’re ready to shop!
It will take me a few weeks to get my new shop fully operational. I have the basics set up but now I need to add the important things like products. During this time I will be making a lot of decisions about which products to keep and which to allow to lapse into obscurity. So if you have suggestions of things you would like to see in my new shop or if you’re desperate for a project bag NOW, give me a shout via the Contact tab. Look for further news on this change in the coming weeks here and on social media.

Look out Aragorn. You’re next.
