Grian Knitted by Nivine Douhne Moseley

I have to share Nivine’s stunning version of Grian with you. The bright orange colour of the Malabrigo Yarn Dos Tierras yarn suits her so well and the intensity is captured in these photos. Nivine is a very skilled knitter and test knitted Grian for me. Hence I am not surprised that the yarn ….”was generously supported by Malabrigo. This yarn feels amazing and wonderful to knit with, makes for a beautiful stitch definition. The color is gorgeous looks like a flaming sunset”. Nivine continues: “I knew I wanted to knit this sweater from the first picture Linda shared. It’s like art in stitches”, I am so thrilled to hear this, thank you ever so much, Nivine! If you recognise her ear rings, they are designed by Kaja Gjedebo Design, whose jewellery I borrow for my photoshoots.

Nivine made the sweater in size M and the one size cowl using a 4 mm/US 6 needles, with a 20 stitches and 28 rows in stockinette stitch gauge per 10 cm/4″ square. The Grian pattern is graded in sizes XS to 5XL with a one size cowl included. You can find Nivine as @neevoknits on Instagram and nivine on Ravelry!

Named after the Faery Goddess from County Tipperary, is this pullover with heavy cabled texture. Grian means sunny, from her days as a regional sun deity, perfectly suited for this pullover. Honeycomb and stag horn cables adorn the body, while only honeycomb rule on the sleeves. Grian is slightly fitted with a crew neck and has a high cowl as a collar. The Fibre Co. Cumbria make the cables pop and allow the texture to shine in all its glory.

The Grian pattern is available in English on Ravelry and on LoveCrafts.

Photoshoot at Mortensrud Church November 2020: Senna & Seneka

Next out in the series of photos from our photoshoot at Mortensrud Church in Oslo, back in November 2020, is the Senna & Seneka that can be worn as a set. Both are knitted by yours truly in the divine hand dyed Neighborhood Fiber Co. Organic Studio Worsted. The shade Woodberry looked stunning on model Olivia Lindtein wearing both the jacket and the skirt, which can also be worn as a poncho or maxi hood! The bespoke buttons on Senna are hand made by Siri Berrefjord. Her hair & make-up is by Sissel Fylling, the jewellery is borrowed from Kaja Gjedebo Design and brilliant photographer Eivind Røhne captured it all! Both patterns will be released in English and Norwegian in my Ravelry Store on Thursday March 4 and a few days later they will also be available on LoveCrafts.

I found an old silk scarf from Jaeger which I love which matched the turquoise colour perfectly. That is also why I chose to style the garments with a camel coloured top and trousers, visible in some of these photos. Sissel suggested to add the scarf to Olivia’s hair for a more trendy look. It was a brilliant idea, in my opinion. Above is the Seneka skirt, which is a-line shaped and has boot laces inserted in the waistband for a more comfortable fit.

Seneka, a nickname for Senna meaning brightness in Arabic. This is an A-line skirt with an elaborate cabled center that ends in a waistband; knitted like a hem in one piece with boot laces placed inside. Seneka is knitted in the divine hand dyed Neighborhood Fiber Co. Organic Studio Worsted and can be worn as a skirt or a poncho or a maxi hood – all together with the matching Senna cardigan.

Senna is a botanical name of Arabic origin meaning brightness, and suited this long oversized cardigan with a deep v-neck and A-line shaping. Elaborate cables cover the center back, while only one single cable adornseach front and sleeve. A wavy tuck introduces the cables from the check rib bottom. Senna is knitted in the divine Neighborhood Fiber Co. Organic Studio Worsted with side pockets worked together with the front. Bespoke buttons act like small gems and highlight the beautiful hand dyed shade. Wear Senna with the matching Seneka; as a skirt or a poncho or a maxi hood.

Both garments are worked with a 4 mm/US 6 needle with a gauge of 20 stitches and 28 rows in stockinette stitch measuring 10 cm/4″ square. I have graded them in sizes XS to 5XL. Olivia is wearing size S; Seneka with + 11 cm/4.25” ease and Senna with + 27 cm/10.75” ease. She stands 5’6″ tall.

The skirt Seneka is knitted in pieces and seamed. If you want to adjust the length of the skirt, remove up to 8 cm/3.25″ or add an extra length before shaping the hip. The waist band is worked like a hem, with boot laces laid inside it before it is closed.

The Senna cardigan is knitted in pieces and seamed. The second part of the v-neck decreases on the fronts moves to the opposite side of the cable in order for the cable to continue to the shoulder.

The two vertical side pockets are worked at the same time as the front with extra stitches for the pocket band, with the lining attached horizontally at the bottom and top of the pocket.

All parts on Senna have a seam-edge in garter stitch, that stops on the pocket and then resumes to the armhole.

Here is the last photo in the series showing the Seneka worn as a poncho over the Senna jacket, seen from the back. All these photos are taken upstairs in the church by a large window, illuminating the scene. I love this set on Olivia! I am ever so grateful for my amazing team! Thank you!

New Designs: Rym and Kyi

The next two new designs I have made for Hillesvåg Ullvarefabrikk are the skirt (or poncho) Kyi and the ballet top Rym. I am showing them together, as I designed them as a comfy set. The skirt idea came first, after I had seen an asymmetrical skirt with extra side width turned into pockets at the waist. I simplified the skirt due to the stretchy nature of the knitted fabric compared to a woven one. The top to go with, went from being a pullover into being a ballet top, as I wanted a fitted top to show off the large pockets on the skirt. Both are brilliantly knitted in the new yarn Vidde lambswool using a 4.5 mm/US 7 needle by my sample knitter Grete Jenssen, aka ma9 on Ravelry. Yarn kits are already available with either Norwegian or English pattern, while the individual patterns will be released after test knitting on Ravelry, later this spring.

Named Kyi, Norse for shelter, is this asymmetrical skirt with extra side width that are turned into pockets at the waist. The side seams make the pockets fold over. The waistband is knitted double in stockinette stitch at the end and has inserted boot laces for comfort. Wear it as a poncho instead if you prefer or together with the matching Rym ballet top. The Kyi skirt is knitted in the bouncy Vidde lambswool from Hillesvåg Ullvarefabrikk.

Named Rym, Norse for roaring as well as the name of a troll-wife, is this ballet top that is tied together at the waist. An all over rhombus pattern gives the top texture. Rym is knitted in the lovely Vidde lambswool from Hillesvåg Ullvarefabrikk and made to be worn together with the skirt or poncho Kyi.

These photos of me wearing size Small are taken by my husband in our back garden back in November. I have graded both designs from sizes XS to 5XL. The skirt, Kyi, is worked back and forth in two pieces and seamed. The two horizontal top pockets are worked at the same as the front, with the lining attached horizontally at the bottom and closed at the top, by working it together with the back using 3-needles and end in an I-cord bind off for a pocket band, see video. The waist band is worked like a hem, with boot laces laid inside it before it is closed.

The top, Rym, is worked back and forth in separate pieces and seamed. The fronts have an attached I-cord and a purl stitch edging that is worked to the end for the front band. The ties are worked separately at the end and sewn in place at marked positions.

Here you see the Kyi skirt worn as a poncho. The gauge for both patterns is 18 sts and 24 rows in stockinette stitch using 4.5 mm/US 7 needle measures 10 cm/4” square after blocking.

Rym – ballet top – is first of the two design to be test knitted in my Ravelry group, beginning on June 7, then Kyi beginning on July 5, before each pattern is released. But you will already find yarn kits, with either English or Norwegian pattern, available from Hillesvag Ullvarefabrikk.

The style and colour look perfect on Model Olivia Lindtein, as you can see from the Yarn kit page. I look forward to showing you all the pictures of Rym and Kyi from our photoshoot.

Yaelle Knitted by Birgit Blumrich

Here is another stunning version of my design Yaelle, knitted by German test knitter Birgit, aka blumi1412 on Ravelry and blumi1412 alpakas on Instagram, together with two of her three Alpaca boys whose alpaca fleece spun into yarn she used to knit Yaelle. Yes, you will find the super soft and shiny Alpaca yarn in her Etsy shop called: Alpakawiese. Birgit took part in the test knit and made size Small using the recommended 3.5 mm/US 4 needles to get the 21 stitches and 30 rows gauge in stockinette stitch measuring 10 cm/4″ square.

The alpacas’ are adorable don’t you think. It was Birgit’s husband who took these amazing photos! In the photo at the top you can see the longer back and the side panel of Yaelle. The bottom photo shows the pullover worn with a belt! Thank you so much for making such a stunning version, Birgit! And for these lovely photos!

Yaelle is a high-low pullover with an all over check pattern, swinging side panels and pockets. Named after Hebrew for the mountain goat, as it can take you everywhere. The pullover ends in a high loose turtle neck collar. Yaelle’s side panels are picked up and knitted after the side seams are done. The pockets are knitted at the same time as the front, including the pocket band and the lining. Wear Yaelle as you like; hanging loose or gathered with a belt or with a shawl pin at the front. The pullover is knitted in the pelt wool yarn Tinde with lustre from Hillesvåg Ullvarefabrikk.

The pullover is worked back and forth in pieces from the bottom and up, then seamed. The side panel is picked up and knitted after the shoulder and side seams. The two vertical side pockets are worked at the same time as the front with extra stitches for the pocket band, with the lining attached horizontally at the top and bottom of the pocket. The collar is worked in the round.

Yaelle comes in sizes XS to 5XL with a finished breast measurement of 128 to 192 cm/50.5 to 75.5″, with an intended ease: + 46-56 cm/18-22”. I look forward to showing more brilliant versions of Yaelle!

New Design: Hetta

The time has come to begin to show you the new designs I have made for Hillesvåg Ullvarefabrikk and first out is my hoodie, already available as a yarn kit. Named Hetta, Norse for hood, is this oversized cozy pullover with a kangaroo pocket. An embossed leaf stitch adorns the hoodie, which begins in a broken rib. The stitch pattern continues on both parts of the hood which are knitted together at the top and seamed at the back, then attached around the neckline. The pocket is knitted onto the front at the end. Hetta is knitted in the stunning pelt and lambswool yarn mix from Hillesvåg Ullvarefabrikk, called Vidde.

The idea for the Hetta design began with the new yarn mix from Hillesvåg, which I wanted to test. I chose the delicate “Pudder”/Powder shade, which is a lovely rosy beige that shows off the simple embossed leaf stitch. I had my sample knitter Airin Hansen knitting this for me with a gauge of 18 stitches and 24 rows in st st using 4.5 mm/US 7 needle measures 10 cm/4” square after blocking. The sample is size S, but I have graded the pattern from sizes XS to 5XL, with bust measurements from 129 to 186 cm/50.75 to 73.25″ with an intended ease: + 46-56 cm/18-22”. I am wearing it with + 48 cm/19” of ease.

The pullover is worked back and forth from the bottom and up in pieces and then seamed. A circular needle is used to accommodate the large stitch number. The stitches for the beginning and end of front pocket are held on waste yarn. The pocket is knitted onto the front at the end. The hood is worked in two separate parts and joined with a 3-needle bind off, then seamed at the back and along neckline with a front overlap.

Michael took these photos of me wearing Hetta in our back garden back in November. Hetta is the next design to be test knitted in my Ravelry group, it begins on March 8, before the pattern is released. But you will already find yarn kits, with either English or Norwegian pattern, available from yarn kit

The style and colour look perfect on Model Olivia Lindtein, as you can see from the yarn kit page. I look forward to showing you all the pictures of Hetta from our photoshoot.

Photoshoot at Mortensrud Church November 2020: Cable Skirt

I have been waiting to show you the first set of photos we took at Mortensrud Church in Oslo, back in November 2020. The Cable Skirt is not a new design, but one that I made for my Norwegian knitting book “To rett, en vrang. Designstrikk” published by Cappelen Damm back in 2012. This time I made sure that we photographed it worn as a poncho in addition to as a skirt. I decided to style the skirt with a camel silk blouse and then with the matching trouser. Model Olivia Lindtein looked stunning in both the skirt and the poncho! Her hair & make-up is by Sissel Fylling, the jewellery is borrowed from Kaja Gjedebo Design and brilliant photographer Eivind Røhne captured it all!

The pattern has been revised and I have added two more sizes to it. My technical editor Barbara Khouri has made a schematic for it and edited the pattern for me. The Cable Skirt pattern will be released in my Ravelry Store tomorrow in both English and Norwegian.

A cabled skirt inspired by the late Alexander McQueen with a center braid cable framed by a tulip cable on each of the six panels. In the sides there are double seed stitches to allow the cables to add an extra dimension to the stitch pattern. Instead of elastic, a comfortable boot laces is inserted so that you can adjust the length by wearing it on your hips instead of waist or as a poncho, if you prefer. The Cable Skirt or Poncho is knitted in the lovely Berroco Ultra Alpaca Fine with a small percentage of nylon so it will keep its shape.

The skirt is knitted using a 3 mm/US 2.5 needle and with a 28 stitch and 36 rows gauge in stockinette stitch measuring 10 cm/4″ square. The finished waist measurement for the smallest size is 126 cm/49.5″ and it will fit sizes XS to M, while the second size will fit sizes L to 2XL and the third size will fit sizes 3XL to 5XL. Olivia is wearing the smallest size with 62 cm/24.5″ positive ease.

The skirt is knitted in six panels with shaping for the waist and then sewn together. Boot laces is inserted into the waistband before it is folded over and seamed to the wrong side. Each panel has a centred Braid cable with a Tulip cable on each side, divided by reverse stocking stitch and edged by double seed stitch. If you only want to use the skirt as a poncho, make the smallest size.

I look forward to showing you more of the photos from the photoshoot! I am so thrilled with these new photos of the Cable Skirt. Thank you to my wonderful team!

New Design: Eah

The idea for this design came from a hoodie that the modell Olivia Lindtein was wearing during our photoshoot at Bøler Church back in May 2020. Just like Olivia’s sweater I wanted to use a mohair mix yarn in a beige or camel colour. Walk Collection had the colour I wanted the Merino Sport in Camel (100% Superwash Merino, 100 g, 325 m/355 yds). Now, did I want the same colour in the KidMohair Lace (70% mohair, 30% silk, 50 g, 420 m/459 yds) or should I choose a similar colour that would make a larger difference in the colour. Below you see the two yarns together and the cable I chose.

I was so chuffed that Cathrin Walk would sponsor yarn for a second design. The gauge with one strand of each yarn is 20 stitches and 30 rows in stockinette stitch using a 4 mm/US 6 needle measuring 10 cm/4″ square.

Back to the choice of stitch pattern for it. Olivia’s hoodie was all in stockinette stitch. I picked a cable for the center front & back as well as sleeve. I decided to use one that I have used previously in my Vaga design and have only one pattern repeat of it, so that it could continue all the way up along the sleeve cap to the final bind off.

What kind of hood should I make for it? I looked at other patterns and the different constructions of it. In the end I chose a close hood, where the back neck continues up along the back head – so that the cable could continue – with a rounded top. Then you pick up stitches around it and increase a number of times before the last part is worked even.

 Grete Jenssen, aka ma9 on Ravelry, brilliantly knitted this sample, in pieces, while I knitted the last part of the hood and tried out different edges on it. In the end the hood became a bit too shallow; It covers the back head but does not stay on the front part of the head.

I asked my technical editor Barbara how I could adjust it. She suggested simply to make the last part of the hood 3.5 to 5 cm/1.5 to 2″ longer, hence I have altered the pattern from sample length 11.5 cm/4.25″ to 16.5 cm/6.5″. I hope to have this theory tested during the test knit.

The photos above are taken by Michael at the beach in Ørje on a very cold November day with a cold blue light – typical for the winter season. I am wearing size S with only 2 cm/0.75″ positive ease. I have graded the hoodie in sizes XS to 5XL with a bust/hip measurement of 84 to 160 cm/33 to 63″, and a waist measurement of 78 to 154 cm/30.75 to 60.75″. This is the next test knit to start on February 15, with a release date of April 6.

I decided to style it with a pleated skirt, as I knew I wanted Olivia to wear cream coloured silk trousers with it during our photoshoot. So that you can see how it looks with different styling. I look forward to showing you those photos soon!

Leylak Knitted by Irina

Let me introduce you to Irina, the knitting-princess on Ravelry and Instagram, who has test knitted this stunning version of my Leylak design. Irina is indeed a knitting princess as she does “… a lot of charity projects, and some for gifts. I also really like doing test and samples, because it makes me feel like I’m more a part of the process of a pattern”, as she writes on her profile page on Ravelry. To make sure you remember her name, Irina is wearing a crown in her finished project photos. She test knitted size XS for me and used the soft Schurwollkammgarn by Seehawer & Siebert in a divine royal blue colour. The yarn is thicker than the sample yarn I used so Irina used much smaller needles to achieve gauge (22 stitches and 30 rows in stockinette stitch measures 10 cm/4″ square); 2.25 mm/US 1, 3.25 mm/US3 and 3.5 mm/US 4 instead of 4 mm/US 6 and 4.5 mm/US 7.

If you wonder how long it took her to make it, I can reveal that it took her “…57 hours and 40 minutes to knit including weaving in ends and sewing pieces together.” That is an impressive speed! I did not track my hours, but I can tell you that I used a lot longer making the sample with bigger needles.

I love these playful photos, which were taken on a playground close to her previous home in Germany, by a friend. Irina moved to Georgia in the US, recently. It shows the sidewing construction of the cardigan so well! In the notes part of the pattern you will find this information: The asymmetric lower body has extra width in each side – sidewing – that is bound off. Each front has 3 cm/1.25” extra width at center front that is bound off at the same time as the wing, then joined with the buttonband at the end.

Irina, the knitting princess, writes that it fits perfectly and that she is super pleased with it! I am so honoured to hear it! Thank you so much, Irina!

The Leylak pattern, in sizes XS to 5XL, is available in both English and Norwegian on Ravelry and on LoveCrafts. I look forward to showing you more stunning versions of my Leylak design!
