Knit Wit Magazine, Issue 7

Hooked on this thoughtful and greatly inspiring publication, with its individual voice for the modern craft movement. Each issue is truly wonderful and well-informed; one we excitedly cannot wait to hold.

In addition to the engaging storytelling, interesting humans and incredible work you are used to, you will also find something new: five original patterns developed at Knit Wit HQ with some really great designers.

Noelle Sharp of Aporta Textiles takes us along on a Navajo weaving workshop, while All Roads Studio’s Janelle Pietrzak explores the deeply complicated and interesting world of raising Churro sheep. We also peek at the studio of the Nike colour designer turned full-time weaver, Katherine Entis.

A meet up with Rachael Matthews, author of The Mindfulness of Knitting, to chill out for a tick. A studio visit to the maker movement’s fearless leader, Cathy Callahan.

On the pattern front, you will find an epic coat by Purl B’s Brandi Harper, an almost-too-adorable beret by our own pattern editor Gina Röckenwagner, a crochet mini dress by Alexandra Tavel of Two of Wands, possibly the chicest thing to slide off a pair of needles, a sweater top and skirt set by Brittney Jean Bailey and grunge-inspired frilly socks from Joanna Radow.
