The Coterie Sweater is inspired by the Coterie Shawl, a pattern I designed in honor of Local Yarn Shop Day 2022.

Coterie is a celebration of all the things that I cherish most about local yarn shops. Defined as an intimate group with a unifying common interest or purpose, Coterie conveys what I personally found at my LYS. These yarn shops are amazing places that foster our community of fiber enthusiasts and are the lifeblood of our craft. They need support from their community during these difficult times.

The Coterie Sweater is knit seamlessly, and worked from the top down, beginning with a twisted rib neckline. The round yoke features an elegant lace panel to add delicate and feminine detail to your sweater, and the stockinette body leads to an easy-to-customize split hem with twisted ribbing. I added extra length to the ribbing at the back of my sweater so I could confidently wear it with my favorite leggings! As you gently shape the sleeves, you’ll add extra decreases to create a gentle puff at the wrist before knitting the twisted rib cuff.

The lace stitches are both fully written and the repeat is charted, so you can use the type of instructions you are most comfortable with.

Here’s how the preorder works:

The Beautiful Yarn:
I designed this sweater using luxurious Queensland Collection Falkland Worsted yarn, and it was a joy to knit with. ???? This 100% wool yarn is an easy-care fine Merino wool harvested from sheep ethically raised in the Falkland Islands

Who hasn’t heard of Nomadic Knits? We are proud to have been a featured dyer in a couple of their amazing regional magazines featuring independent designers and dyers from across the U.S. These beautiful publications feature sweeping landscapes, stories, designers, dyers, and patterns. Nomadic Knits also hosts some of the most fun Knit-a-Longs, including the Twelve Days of Knitmas! On the heels of Knitmas, is The Lonely Hearts Club! This super fun KAL started four years ago and each year has been better and better. This year, Olive & Two Ewe is thrilled to be the featured dyer. You can learn more about the knit-a-long and see the beautiful kits we’ve prepared here.

We also welcome to the shop this week a couple of unusual characters — yarns we don’t often carry, but they are wonderful, nonetheless!

First, we introduce Rand, our little-known, single-ply, rustic alpaca super bulky base. Rand is spun by the wives and mothers of shepherds in the Andean mountains of Peru. Purchasing this yarn, sustains the economic health of their small circle of family and friends. We love that it will felt, making it interesting for craft projects of all sorts. It’s available in a beautiful array of colors.

Another unusual character is our Doyle DK base. Doyle’s 100% Pima Cotton makes it perfect for cool summer sweaters and easy-to-care-for home goods. We love it for dishcloths, so check out designs by Carolyn Edgar on Ravelry for three that are free.

Tolkien DK is another cottony base with 50% Superwash Merino and 50% cotton. Tolkien DK is another great option for summer sweaters and home goods. It’s larger gauge knits up quick and has excellent stitch definition.

As beautiful as it is unusual is Plato, our 4-ply DK base made of 75% Superwash Merino and 25% nylon. Beautiful and sturdy, Plato makes a cozy, plush sock that knits up quick. Shown here in A Hallmark Holiday, Plato comes in a rainbow of our favorite colors.

And last but not least, we hope you’ll join us as we go live on our YouTube Channel, The Traveling Two Ewe Knit, every Saturday morning at 9:30 am, Eastern time. We talk about yarn, patterns, trends and fiber friends. So, grab a project and a beverage, and join us for a yarny good time. Remember, Fiber Friends are the Best Friends, and we hope you’ll be ours.

Joanna from Silver Key Stitches has published her first shawl pattern! Perfect for these cooler days, this triangular-shaped shawl uses a twisted stitch pattern that will create a warm, beautifully textured fabric while keeping you interested in your knitting — without a cable needle! Knit in a DK-weight yarn, this project will fly off your needles and you will find yourself reaching for it again and again to compliment whatever you are wearing.

Wonderland Yarns is introducing a new monthly yarn club for 2024, inviting you to the premier event of the year as they take a “Tour of the Season,” venturing into society at well-known literary country manors, city estates, masked ballrooms — and maybe even a garden party or two. A set of 12 lush tones that you’d find in and around parties and ballrooms have been chosen to form a cohesive palette for the year (see poster for color inspritation). Hand-dyed variegated yarns feature a range of dyeing techniques in universally appealing colors.

Each monthly club subscription includes:

• Yarn: Each month’s hand-dyed colorway is inspired by a grand literary event and is available on our base of the year, Mad Hatter sport, or that month’s featured base.

• Optional add-on skeins — new for 2024, purchase additional skeins in the limited-edition colorway

• Block of the Month Pattern: a new, ongoing Block of the Month project (knitting or crochet options each month)

• Pattern Library: Current club members will have year-long access to an ever-changing pattern library of one-skein patterns and/or can choose to participate in the Block of the Month project, where we will play with new stitches each month. The blocks can be sewn together to create a blanket at the end of the year. Once a block is released it will be available for the remainder of the year allowing crafters to commit to the year and work all 12 square designs, or choose which square they like best.

• Delights: Each monthly “party” includes an “invitation” with work-in-progress card on the reverse and a set of custom made stitch markers.

Lovely yarns and delights, in your mailbox, monthly! Tour of the Season yarn club is now open for sign-ups!

For December I’ve introduced two new colorwork cowls that are great beginner projects but also designed to show off those gorgeous handspun or variegated yarns in your stash (or you’ve been eyeing at your LYS)!

Both are knit using worsted-weight yarns and are gender neutral… they are perfect to knit for yourself or for that special someone who loves a great cowl! Winter Break and Skyline are on sale through next week… just add to your cart!

And… be sure to check out the latest Factory Girl Favorite makers tools and other fun items in the shop. Using the code HOLLYJOLLY at check out enjoy a special 20% discount for the holidays!

Happy Making!

Emily Wood’s new cabled shawl pattern, the Disconnect Shawl, is 25% off on Ravelry and Payhip through December 12. Tilting cables twine across the surface of this shawl, framing stretches of reverse stockinette stitch that interrupt the cushy 2×2 ribbing. Perfect for fingering, sport, or DK weight yarn.

I am sure many of us are working on holiday gifts or hurrying to knit those sweaters for the family photos! But I have a little something this week that may be a fun project for yourself. Or, team up with your LYS to kit up some yarn for your favorite knitting friend to gift them a new project.

The Spiced Cider scarf is so squishy and warm… I wore it all weekend as the temps dropped to below freezing here. It was perfect for standing outside with my pup Sophie as she did her business. ????

Spiced Cider is knit using Blue Sky Fibers Extra (you will need three hanks or 505 yards of Aran/heavy worsted-weight yarn) and a US 9/5.5 mm knitting needle. This scarf is filled with cables and they look a little complicated, however they are not (I promise)! There are tips to knit this without the cable needle, too. You can easily adjust to whatever length you wish (that will affect your total yardage, so keep that in mind). But this is a wonderful squishy scarf that is sure to please all those knitworthy people in your life!

Enjoy 15% off through November 30th — no codes needed!

Happy making, friends!

All of the colorways in Wild Violet Fibers’ Into the Woods collection are now available and the corresponding Into the Woods Beanie pattern was just released on Ravelry.

The colorways in the collection are inspired by the seasonal change of the forest’s palette, from lush greens, to vibrant reds, oranges and yellows and, finally, to misty shades of grays and browns. The collection includes both semisolid and variegated colorways: September Grass, Secluded Glade, October Leaves, Lost in the Woods, November Rain and Through the Mist.

The design of the beanie is inspired by walks through the woods and makes a great accessory for autumn and winter hikes. The pattern as written includes a bit of slouch, but can easily be customized for a snugger fit. The beanie pattern includes sizes for youth, adult small, and adult large.
