As well as the sale and the chance to find some new-to-you designers there are KALs, competitions and general chatter happening over on the Indie Design Giftalong group.


 As you might expect I'll be hanging out in the thread related to sock and other foot/leg patterns but I can never resist checking out all the other amazing patterns - and I do need a new hat for winter....


A new designer on the block

I am thrilled to be able to share a new designer with you today. Claire of the New Hampshire Knits podcast has been a great supporter of mine over recent months, notably hosting a KAL of my sock patterns and mentioning me frequently on her podcast. She has now made her debut into the world of design and I am thrilled to be able to return the favour.

Agatha Socks - ©NH Knits

Her first sock pattern - Agatha is a cuff down sock with a textured pattern that looks as though it will simply fly off the needles once you get into it. She is hosting a KAL over on her group and there is also an introductory discount for the next few days.

If you would like to win a free copy of the pattern. Please just leave a comment below with your Ravelry name and let me know who you would knit the Agatha socks for. I'll draw a winner at random next Saturday - Sat 26th September and I'll pop the pattern into your Ravelry library.

Happy Knittng
