I have exciting news! My friend Ruth from @raincloudandsage and I are hosting our first knitalong together. 🙌 On Dec 18th we will cast on the Monument Hat. #monumentHatKAL I designed this hat specifically for Unspun by Raincloud&Sage, but you are welcome to use any other unspun yarn, too. 🧶 If you want to use Unspun 2109 - the current batch which comes in a beautiful charcoal grey - you can send Ruth an email with your order number and she will kindly prioritize getting your order shipped to you. This KAL is going to be very relaxed and laid-back, running over the holidays into the new year. Wouldn't it be lovely to knit on a portable little project that does not require a lot of thinking at the end of the year? If you have any questions, please enter them into the question stickers that we put up in our stories today. We will try our best to answer them in an Instagram live on Wednesday, Nov 30th at 2pm CET. We really hope you will join us! 🤗 #newknitalong #knitalong #knitalongstartingsoon #knitalongannouncement #raincloudandsage #herbgardenknitwear #unspun #unspun2104 #unspun2109 #raincloudandsageunspun #raincloudandsageyarn #monumentHat #cabledhat #cabledbeanie #easyhat #chunkyhat #cozyhat #cosyhat #knitting #kal #newkal #knittingcommunity #letsknit #letsknittogether #knittingfriends https://www.instagram.com/p/ClgaAmUI_Nj/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Greetings from Sweden! I am currently having my first vacation in another country since the pandemic and it feels so good to take this much needed break. 🌞 Prepare yourself for many pictures of beautiful red houses. From what I have seen so far, I can confirm that Sweden is just as beautiful as I have imagined it to be. 😊 Pictured above you can see my Monument Hat which has kept me warm and cozy over the past few days. #favoriteFoFriday The pattern is currently in the testing phase and I am still accepting testers. You can find the link to the testing call in my profile. #monumentHat Have a lovely weekend, everyone! 🤗 Pattern: Monument Hat (in testing) Yarn: Unspun 2104 by Raincloud&Sage and Mohair by Canard #unspunwool #unspunyarn #unspun2104 #raincloudandsage #mohairbycanard #mohairknits #cablebeanie #cabledhat #cablehat #cabledbeanie #herbgardenknitwear #fallknitting #knitbeanie #knithat #hatknitting #beanieknitting #hatknitters #beanieknittingpattern #quickbeanie #easyknithat #easyhatpattern #hat #beanie #cableknitting #cableknits https://www.instagram.com/p/Cij-Ug4onZh/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It is a very gloomy September day here in northern Germany. 🍂 So, I am spending my Saturday going through my stash in search of a yarn that I want to use for the HERBGARDEN knitwear shawl KAL. 🙌 #hgkskal2022 One option would be this gorgeous deep green yarn. It is Origin from Raincloud&Sage and the color called "moor" was a limited edition dyed by Mominoki Yarn last year. By the way, this post is not sponsored in any way. I bought the yarn myself, because I genuinely enjoy it. It is just the kind of pure, rustic merino that I will never get enough of. I already used Origin for two of my designs: the Ardent Autumm shawl and the Hiraeth Sweater. #ardentAutumnShawl #hiraethSweater These three skeins should be enough to make a second Ardent Autumm shawl and I kind of love the idea of having a green one. 🌿 There are still a few weeks till we cast on on Oct 1st. So, I will take my time and play with different ideas before I decide which shawl I want to make. How about you? Are you already making plans for the KAL, too? 🧶 #raincloudandsage #raincloudandsageyarn #raincloudandsageorigin #handdyedyarn #rusticyarn #rusticmerino #mominokiyarn #indiedyedyarn #germanmerino #germanyarn #herbgardenknitwear #shawlkal #yarnlove #yarnlovers #yarnloversofinstagram #yarnlife #yarnspirations #knitting #knittinglife #fiberart #fiberlove #knitandbehappy #knitalong https://www.instagram.com/p/CiUtmzkIjoU/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Happy #favoriteFoFriday 🧶💕 You probably guessed what my favorite finished object is right now, haven't you?! I am just soooo happy with my ARDENT AUTUMN shawl. 🧡🍂 #ardentAutumnShawl Btw. if you are not sure yet whether you want to buy the pattern or not, then you should know that Ruth of @raincloudandsage kindly offers a 20% discount code on Raincloud & Sage Origin to everyone who buys this pattern till Saturday, Nov 20th 2021, 8pm CET. I will send you the code after you purchased the pattern. Feel free to send me a message upfront if you have any questions. 😊 I am a big fan of Origin and this is my second design using it. It is a wonderful squishy 100% woollen yarn that blooms beautifully after washing and is super light and warm. I am sure Ruth happily answers any questions you might have about Origin - she is a wonderful person and an inspiring small business owner. Have great start into the weekend! 🤗 #raincloudandsage #raincloudandsageorigin #rusticyarn #wooladdict #wool #germanyarn #localyarn #yarnaddict #yarnaddiction #yarnaddicted #yarnaddicts #yarnaddictionisreal #yarnaddictsofinstagram #yarnaddictsanonymous #lovetoknitshawls #loveknitting #herbgardenknitwear #newpatternrelease #patternrelease #knit #knitting #knitknitknit #knitknitz #knitstergram #fallknits https://www.instagram.com/p/CWLdn1Ro-Jj/?utm_medium=tumblr

This Saturday is the deadline for the Ardent Autumm shawl test. 🧶 #ardentAutumnShawl When I received my testers feedback, I will give the pattern its final tweek and send it to my tech editor once again. And then, when we are both happy with the pattern, it will be time for a new release! Yay! 😊 By the way, if you are planning to knit your own Ardent Autumm shawl, then you might want to check out this years limited edition of Origin by Raincloud&Sage dyed in Mominoki Yarn colorways. Origin is the recommended yarn for this pattern and there are still some lovely skeins in special colors available in @raincloudandsage online shop.

I am having an early weekend today. 😊 So I will try to put the time to good use and work on the pattern of my HIRAETH sweater.

If the forecast is correct, today was the last really cold day of winter. By wednesday all the show and ice will be gone... So today a friend and I made the most of this wonderful and sunny day and went ice skating on the frozen lake! Yay! ❄🙌 It has been years since that was possible the last time. And enjoyed it so much! 😊 Not only because of the fun we had but also because I got to wear my new sweater for the first time! 🧶 I really hope you all had a wonderful valentines day! Lots of love to you all! 💕 #hiraethsweater #herbgardenknitwear #finishedobject #egostrikk #egostrik #strikke #strik #topdowncircularyoke #raincloudandsage #raincloudandsageorigin #linnaheadband #cabledheadband #handknitter #handknits #handknit #knittingisfun #knittingismysuperpower #handmadewardrobe https://www.instagram.com/p/CLSG0oSJgm5/?igshid=1xz3gzhm4a3va

Someone stayed up late yesterday to leave sleeve island as soon as possible 🤣 - and with success: this project is now officially a finished object! Yay! 🙌 I washed it and now I just need to wait for it to dry. Then I will start grading this sweater. Wish me luck! 🤞 Happy weekend everyone! 💕 #hiraethsweater #finishedobject #herbgardenknitwear #raincloudandsageorigin #raincloudandsageyarn #raincloudandsage @raincloudandsage #corrugatedribbing #strandedknitting #ribbing #rusticyarn #nonsuperwashyarn #naturalyarn #knitterslife #knittersofgermany #superknitters https://www.instagram.com/p/CLPULHnJ38R/?igshid=16m01urwmjcbq

Friendly reminder that the Monument Hat Knitlong that I host together with the wonderful Ruth of @raincloudandsage is still running till the end of January. 🧶 We have a lovely little chat group here on Instagram where we share our yarn choices and our progress. #monumentHatKAL In the first days of the KAL I knit one in rusty orange that you can see above next to my original sample. Before the knitalong ends I plan to cast on a third one. Feel free to join us! 🤗 #monumentHat #knitalong #knitalongs #herbgardenknitwearHats #herbgardenknitwear #raincloudandsageunspun #unspun #unspunyarn #quickknits #quickknit #chunkyknit #easybeanie #easyhat #quickbeanie #quickhat #hatpattern #beaniepattern #handknits #knittingcommunity #knittingfriends #knittogether #knitting #knitter #knit #knits https://www.instagram.com/p/CnJbw9tIqsZ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Wanna see my yarn options for our Monument Hat KAL? 🧶 Tomorrow we cast on our Monument Hats for the knitalong that Ruth from @raincloudandsage and I are hosting together. Luckily I have three different yarn options in my stash: • a light blue combination of Plötulopi and Filcolana Tilia which both are leftovers from my Turning Skies Sweater #turningSkiesSweater • enough Unspun 2104 from Raincloud&Sage to make an exact duplicate of my sample and • leftovers from the yet unnamed Brioche cardigan that I am currently knitting in a lovely rusty orange which is also Plötulopi and Filcolana Tilia Right now I feel like I would like to knit two more Monument Hats. One exactly as my sample and one in the rusty tones. But please don't hold me to that. 😁 If you are thinking about joining our very relaxed knitalong here are some details: ☆ Start: Dec 18th 2022 ☆ End: Jan 31st 2023 ☆ WIPs are welcome. ☆ You don't need to finish your hat till the end of the KAL. ☆ Use the hashtag #monumentHatKAL to show us your work in progress or finished object. ☆ You can use any unspun yarn that you like. But if you want to use the current batch of unspun by @raincloudandsage with is beautiful charcoal grey and called Unspun 2109, you should order it on Dec 18th at the latest for it to be shipped before the Christmas break. And in case you need one more reason to consider joining the knitalong, I offer a 1€ discount on the pattern for just one day till Dec 18th 23:59h CET when you enter the code "MonumentHatKAL" during the checkout (enter without quotes!). Feel free to let me know if you have any questions before you make your purchase, because the code cannot be applied in retrospect. It would be wonderful, if you decided to knit along with us! ❤ ____ Pattern: Monument Hat by @herbgarden.knitwear Yarn: 2 strands of unspun held together with one strand of silk mohair ____ #monumentHat #discountcode #unspun #knittingpatterndiscount #unspunwool #herbgardenknitwearHats #herbgardenknitwear #raincloudandsageunspun #unspun2109 #unspun2104 #cabledbeanie #cabledhat #knitalong #newknitalong #yarnchoices #yarn #yarnlovers #yarnlove #kal #relaxedknitalong #plötulopi #plotulopi https://www.instagram.com/p/CmR4mrroZ5x/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I love knitting by the ocean! The last weekend I spent at the Baltic Sea and it was wonderful! 🌊 We had the most beautiful sunshine but also very cold wind. With only 13-17°C I was able to wear my new hat for the first time and it kept me warm and cozy! 🌞 This is the first proper image of my new hat, so I think it is time for a little introduction: Meet Monument Hat - it is worked holding two strands of unspun yarn and one strand of silk mohair. #monumentHat I used the wonderful "Unspun 2104" from Raincloud&Sage which is a little more fragile than Plötulopi but just as sheepy and quite a bit softer. The resulting fabric is super squishy and very warm. 🧶 I already wrote up the pattern for this hat. It will be available in 5 sizes. I am very curious to know if you would be interested in testing such a warm hat in the near future as summer is just beginning in this hemisphere... Do you knit hats in the summer months? 🐑 I hope you all had a wonderful weekend full of knitting! 🤗 #beachknitter #beachknitting #knittingatthebeach #knitatthebeach #beanie #beanieknitting #knitbeanie #cablebeanie #cabledbeanie #cabledhat #cablehat #herbgardenknitwear #woollenhat #woollenbeanie #woollen #handknithat #handknitbeanie #unspunwool #roving #unspunyarn #unspun #unspun2104 #raincloudandsageyarn #raincloudandsageunspun #raincloudandsage #yarnlovers https://www.instagram.com/p/CeeGu-xI0hE/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Happy Friday everyone! 🤗 It has become quite cold here and with a little luck the first snow is expected this weekend. 🌨❄ So it is time to get out the warm winter sweaters. I am wearing my Hiraeth sweater a lot lately. #hiraethSweater 🧶 I just love the beautiful yoke and the warm rustic wool. Hiraeth is definitely my favorite finished object for this weeks #favoriteFoFriday 😊 What is yours? Will it soon be winter where you live, too, or are you heading towards the warmer season? A lovely weekend to you all! 💕 #circularyoke #circularyokeknitting #circularyokepattern #ravelryknitting #ravelrypattern #corrugatedribbing #colourworksweater #fairislefriday #yokesweater #yokesweaterpattern #herbgardenknitwear #fallsweaters🍂 #wintersweater #handknitsweater #handknit #memadewardrobe #handknitwardrobe #handknitwithlove #knittingforwinter #warmknits #winterknit #winterknits #raincloudandsage #raincloudandsageorigin #rusticyarn #originyarn https://www.instagram.com/p/CWv2TJ3IURE/?utm_medium=tumblr

It is time to get some autumn vibes to this feed! 🍂 My current project is a new shawl. I am using the beautiful limited edition 'Origin' yarn from @raincloudandsage that was available last year. This stunning color is called Fuchs (German for fox) and was dyed by Jule from @woollentwine for that special limited edition 🧶 It is the perfect color for this season, isn't it? 🍁 #herbgardenknitwear #originyarn #raincloudandsageorigin #raincloudandsageyarn #rusticyarn #rusticwool #shawlknittingaddict #shawlknitting #fallshawl #autumnshawl #rustyorange #yarnlove #yarnlover #yarnlovers #yarnfromgermany #wolleausdeutschland #indiedyedyarn #indiedyer #handdyedyarn #handdyedwool #handdyed #handdyedyarns #handdyedwoolyarn #beautifulyarn #stunningyarn #gorgeousyarns #gorgeousyarn #knittingseason #timetoknit #shawllovers https://www.instagram.com/p/CUVHLmhovYm/?utm_medium=tumblr
