A wonderful good morning to Saturday coffee with a little this and that from the knitting world.

Magda recently shared a great video on steeking. You should definitely check it out, even if you don't have a "steek" project on your needles right now. I also shared how I cut up my steek back in the day on the blog. That was really exciting, I must say!

Pinneguri, the designer hiter the just so popular Loppa Cardigan, has by the way also a few beautiful Fair Isle pattern for baby blankets. These are then also knitted in rounds and later cut open. However, then the back is somehow stupid... the perfectionists among us knit then rather double face, as seen in the third picture in this tutorial.

I have discovered a beautiful turtleneck sweater. I could well imagine in Alpaca Fino, a yarn that I have anyway just constantly in mind, I need a suitable project (and time).

This scarf from Purl Soho caught my eye with the great color accents. So simple and yet so special!

And a pretty little jacket for spring I discovered at Shibui Knits. You can never think about the warmer season early enough, right?

By the way, I'm asked from time to time how to guide the thread upwards when knitting multicolored stripes at the edge. I found an illustrated tutorial here, you can do this in different ways. In no case you should cut the thread every time.

Have a wonderfully beautiful weekend!
