My Sweater is on a Knitting Blog

By on January 11, 2012 in Inspiration and Everything Else

Hey everyone! Guess what? My turquoise sweater (my first sweater!) was featured on the Tanis Fiber Arts blog! Tanis Fiber Arts is the brand of yarn I used to make my first sweater. It’s hand-dyed by a woman in Montreal named Tanis. Which I quite liked when I learned that fact, I like the idea of supporting other small businesses and other creative women! (Even better when she makes a beautiful product. This yarn is wonderful to work with and the colours are even more gorgeous in real life than in photos.)

Check out the post here. I’m super flattered to have my very first sweater, a pretty simple garment, featured along with beautiful lace shawls and other complicated projects on TFA Tuesday. (It’s a weekly feature that showcases projects made from her yarns.) Exciting stuff!

    Congrats, that’s uber cool. You’ll be pleased to know your post inspired me to pick up the needles again, I am making a scarf in feather and fan to replace one I had previously but gave to someone else in more need than I for it…

    Congratulations! Your sweater is awesome! I really want to make this as my first knitted garment after you blogged about it previously, but the Ravelry link for the pattern is not working at the moment sadly – I have emailed asking for a copy but am still waiting (I’m so impatient!) Hopefully I’ll be able to give it a go too before long :)

    Your sweater is beautiful! You do deserve to be up there with the lace shawls – your stockinette sweater is perfect in its simplicity. Plus it really shows off that color!
