Good morning to the cozy Saturday coffee! First of all, I would like to thank you very much for the fabulous response to my cap Lakota. All the ribbing and excitement was really worth it and the work on the next secret secrets is twice as much fun *joy*!

Today I leave you again a few links to browse, because I know from at least one reader that she is now always very excited about the Saturday links. Hah! So here we go:

Saturday coffee-02

Are any of you by chance flying to New York for a short time soon? I would love to have a few skeins of this fine new merino wool Far, the new small yarn label Woolfolk. It's available at Purl Soho, for example. Kristin Ford sources her merino wool from the Ovis 21, a farmers' collective dedicated to sustainable agriculture in Patagonia. I'm still thinking about how great I think sustainability is, though, when the wool ends up being flown all over the world. But good. The color palette, especially these blues and grays, really appeal to me and what you read about the quality of the yarn makes me very curious. I Lemming would love to knit and test a few skeins.

The idea of lining a cap cuff still extra, in this way, I find nice! I'll have to try that too. Is nothing else than the beautiful edge of my rililie cocktails sweater, which is still missing a sleeve. I show you soon times in detail!

My goodness, how pretty can Faire Isle be? And I wonder how long it would stay on my needles? Forever, probably. This is a very pretty blog anyway, by the way, with a very nice Instagram feed (I mentioned that one before).

If you are already browsing, then hop again to the On the Needles October. There are already many beautiful projects together!

Berliners beware. Next week, everything will be under the sign of Wool Week here in Berlin at Bikini Haus. The global initiative Campaign for Wool has set itself the goal of bringing wool back into the focus of consumers, as opposed to synthetic fibers, and has already done so in Tokyo, Paris and London. To kick off Wool Week in Berlin, merino sheep will move onto the terrace of Bikini Haus on Monday. I find the installations "In Wool we trust" by the students of écal particularly interesting. Art installations that address the characteristics of wool, they are freely accessible throughout the week. Sounds super exciting, doesn't it? By the way, Wednesday and Thursday there are also knitting workshops with Nina from Knit Knit!

Have a great weekend!
