I see knitting as an act of love. Sometimes it is meant for someone else as a gesture of warmth and care. At other times, the steady rhythm of knitting helps me find a way back to myself. It is how I gather the scattered pieces of a long day and bring them back into place. Knitting can be both given and kept, holding space for generosity as much as for healing. The Neha Shawl grew out of that duality. Whether it eventually wraps around your own shoulders or someone else’s, may it carry with it a message of love.

Hey fiber friends! September is here, and there’s lots happening at WhimzeeStitches!

We’re fresh off an amazing weekend at DFW Fiber Fest! The online shop is chock full of new handcrafted project bags, colorful hand-dyed yarns and more. I’m back in the studio dyeing yarn, sewing project bags, and dreaming up what’s next. Don’t forget to peek at the SALE section in my Etsy shop for some great finds! And while it may not exactly feel like fall yet here in New Orleans, there’s plenty of colorful creativity going on, and maybe even a little mystery and magic brewing behind the scenes too! More details coming soon!

Thank you, as always, for supporting WhimzeeStitches Designs and this crazy, colorful little creative adventure of mine. Whether you shop online, visit me at a fiber festival, share one of my posts, tell a friend about my work, or simply follow along to see what I create next, it all helps keep this small handmade business going. Here’s to a September filled with colorful yarn, new cast-ons, fewer unfinished projects (HA!), and plenty of time to make something you love.

Happy stitching!

The Vineyard Needlepoint Kit was inspired by the luscious colors of grapes, vineyards, and wine. 12″x12″, 12 holes per inch/mesh.

This rectangular shawl is a soft exploration of colour and texture knit in one piece, made with bulky mohair yarn that creates a light cozy fabric with a delicate halo. Worked in three shades, the design uses short rows to gently shift and shape the colours across the fabric creating movement and unexpected transitions that unfold as the shawl grows.

It’s mystery knit-along time! We’re excited to share our new yarn sets for the Sky Song MKAL from Paper Daisy Creations, all inspired by the colours of the sky!

The yarn for these sets is a luxurious Superwash Merino/Cashmere/silk blend. It’s buttery soft, and the silk gives it just a bit of extra shine and lustre.⁠ Each yarn set includes two full skeins of the main colour and seven half-skeins for the contrast colour gradient. ⁠

These yarn sets include FREE SHIPPING within Canada and the US. We recommend ordering by August 18th to ensure your yarn arrives in time for the start of the Sky Song MKAL on September 2nd.

The River Bend Mini Scarf can be completed in just a couple of days, giving you the satisfaction of completing a project quickly and even using up leftovers. The name is inspired by an area on the Natchez Trace Parkway in Mississippi. This pattern is free on Ravelry! It will also be in my Etsy shop for a small amount due to fees.

Ballerina Bandit is a pattern that is knitted side to side giving the triangular shape. It’s a simple knit with diagonal lines. If you’ve ever been in a dance class, specifically ballet, you’ll know we love dancing in diagonals! This pattern is for sale on Ravelry and Etsy.
