The beautiful accessory collection, Virescent, has just come to my attention and the designer, Katy Carroll, has kindly offered Knitionary two pattern collections to giveaway, plus a discount to my readers!
From Katy: The idea for The Virescent Collection originated with the
dramatic central cable motif. Its plush, organic look reminded me of
huge leaves in far-off rainforests, or even of hostas in my
much-less-exotic state. I wanted to explore how that cable could look in
a variety of pieces and different yarn weights. And of course, that
leafy imagery inevitably led me to the color GREEN.
A few of the patterns below are knit with single skeins and would be a great way to use those one-of-a-kind treasures we knitters seem to collect! Katy's patterns are known to be very well-written, with clear instructions and helpful knitting tips along the way. All patterns have both charted and written instructions.

I like the Danica Cowl, but they're all such lush textured patterns. The Linnea shawl would be next on my list. rav id: laineyhf
ReplyDeleteThat Danica cowl would be first on my list, such pretty cables!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you--the Lisanne mitts are beautiful and so wearable. I'm IrisLeVirus on rav.
ReplyDeleteI would start with Danica for my daughter and then Leandra for me!

A tough choice but the Leticia cowl would be first on my needles. Rav ID Blackmorerose

The Shelby hat first-they all look gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI would knit the Leandra scarf. My daughter asked me to knit her a scarf several years ago. I designed it myself but got the tension drastically wrong. I have been promising her another one ever since. The Leandra scarf is exactly the kind of thing she is looking for - and I should just have time to knit it before Christmas. CablingKaren on Ravelry
ReplyDeleteI'd knit the Lisanne Mitts first. They are really cute. Then I'd knit the hat.

Would love to knit the Leandra Scarf. Rav ID is Alwynn.
ReplyDeleteDo you know what you've done? Do you? Curiosity kills us kittens ya know, yet you show me 6 magnificent patterns, and Leandra is calling me. OK, this is fine. I can live with this. Then you let it drop that three more are on the way. How could you do this to me? I'm on tenterhooks here - not a good place for a Kitten. Beautiful collection Katy, congratulations.
