tree of life shawl

Nature is beautiful in its randomness. All of a species are basically the same, with some variances here and there differentiating us.
This is the premise for my new
“Tree of Life” Shawl. The placement of the branches is dictated by a random number generator making no two shawls the same. The meditative brioche keeps you engaged; paired with the progression of the branches makes this project hard to put down. This shawl calls for two Ombre Shawl Balls, best worked with colors of good contrast for the best definition.
Shown here in Junkanoo and Mist.

a new website!

You’re not imagining things, we do look the same, but different.. Over the last few months we’ve been plugging away behind the scenes on our new site. It brings some exciting features we’re eager to share with you!

  • Many of you have asked for accounts to be able to track your orders and downloads – click on My Account in the top right corner (top left for mobile users) to set yours up – or set it up with your next order. You’ll be able to keep track of your purchases, find your downloads, speed up your checkout with your stored shipment details.
  • All items (downloads and physical goods) can now be handled in one transaction.
  • All colors are now clearly identified and we’ve filled in on yarn weights and colors that were absent.
  • You’ll find the colors to be clearer and more accurate.
  • For those local to our studio we’ve added a pick-up option at checkout if you’d rather stop by to collect your order.
  • We’ve added more kits, more socks and more inspiration for you to peruse and enjoy!

I hope you will forgive a wrinkle or two as the site rolls out as we continue to make improvements, but for now, please explore and I hope you can find something beautiful to make your own!

parapet cowl pattern

Jennifer Weissman’s new pattern, the Parapet Cowl, is a cozy and comfortable bandana style cowl. Stripes, slipped stitches, and strategically placed increases create an eye-catching design with a big impact. The photographed sample was knitted using one skein of our Shaniko Superwash Worsted in the Canyon colorway for both the main color and contrast colors. Jennifer provides instructions in the pattern on winding and weighing out portions of the skein to create smaller balls for each designation. Both sections will have plenty of extra yardage.

Add the Parapet pattern and any ball of our Superwash Shaniko Worsted to your cart and enter the code fortitude at checkout to get the pattern for free! You’ll see a discount of $7.00 in your cart.
