It’s spring, but without the usual benefits, at least in the UK!
So we suggest Leaf Fall, a jaunty little scarf to fill in that chilly gap, cheer up a gloomy day and tuck in your pocket when then sun does shine!

Worked in Ainsworth & Prin Classic Sock it will take under 35 g of yarn and a few evenings of knitting.

The pattern is available now from #Ravelry and if you feel in need of a further pick-me-up treat yourself to a skein or two of Ainsworth & Prin Classic Sock in a stand-out colour.

A massive thank you to our test knitters, Deb, Jayne, Lynn, Viv and Yvonne.

I’ve cast on a Daft Days cardigan by @the.creabea to test a non-superwash woollen spun merino DK that I meant to try last year. A good excuse to use last year’s advent minis too.

Lineage is our new sock pattern, using our #ainswo

Lineage is our new sock pattern, using our #ainsworthandprin two mini skein’ Classic Sock sets. It’s unisex and written for five sizes from baby to large adult, so should cater for most of the family. From one set you should get an adult pair and ‘mini me’ version too!

It’s also a marvellous stash buster the contrast stripes taking just a few grams even in the adult sizes, and minimising stash makes Louise very happy!

Thank you Elaine @yarnandfloss, Lynda @knitterage and Margot for test knitting and all your advice.
