This sweater is based on a triple-square motif, which highlights a beautiful gradient of 8, 9 or 10 shades of Milarrochy Tweed (depending on the size) across a neutral background or vice versa. The Gradient Mesh set of beanie and gauntlets, published in Colour Moves, is featuring a doubled-square motif; in this design, I chose to use a bigger allover repeat.

Writing again on this blog after a very long silence is not easy! But here I’m attempting it!

I disappeared from the knitting scene for a while, but that doesn’t mean that I stopped to knit! I have been very busy with my main work, and obviously, my knitting slowed a bit, but never got to a complete halt.

Here, in the UK, Autumn feelings are starting to take over the Summer ones.

Hi all,

I hope to find all of you well. Today I am launching a new section in my shop. It is called Unique Items as you will find there hand made unique products, which means that …

Having been quiet for a while, I wanted to say ‘hello’ introducing a new design, just launched today! It is a two-shade beanie, which has my name because it turned out exactly as I wanted it and it fits very comfy on my head! I have been playing with stitches for sculptural effects, and this is one of a few new designs of this kind.

Hello everyone!

Hope you are all well and still keeping up your spirit in these long, challenging times.

I've been quiet for a while, busy with various activities. Being my very small business a one-woman business, I found myself very often with my hands in too many pies! Drawing, charting, swatching, knitting, photographing, writing instructions, calculating sizes...

Hi everyone, I hope you are all keeping safe and well in this challenging time. I have been silent for a while as I was busy making some homemade facial masks with fabrics. I want to share with you the result of this activity, in case some of you would find …

Taighean means ‘houses’ in Scottish Gaelic and this design, from Colour Moves collection, recalls colours I've enjoyed during my trips to Scotland. Very often, my inspiration comes from …

I grew up in Abruzzo, a region of Italy with a very beautiful and inspiring landscape, that rises from pretty coastal towns, through lakes and gentle hills where wine is grown, to the Apennine glacier and …
