A wonderful good morning to Saturday coffee with some nice links from the knitting world.

Katha was one of my test knitters for the arm warmers with braid and has shown them on her blog. They look so beautiful!

On February 18th there will be another knitting evening with Maschenfein::Berlin at DaWanda Snuggery here in Berlin. This time it is a knitting meeting, where you simply bring your current projects and we knit together in a cozy round. In addition, beginners are also very welcome to bring your material and suitable needles and then cast on the first stitches. Details will follow, I'm looking forward to it!

Then on February 21 is the workshop "Learn to spin" at Knit Knit. I'm really looking forward to it! There are still a few places available.

For the exciting project, the first Maschenfein book, I am sinking into many, many color cards at the moment and was able to get great sponsors. I love this feeling when the skeins and skeins arrive here and they are still lying on my desk, completely untouched. It's almost like a wool store here right now! Maybe in the coming weeks I'll tell you more about the individual yarns I picked out. The selection of the qualities themselves, is actually not so difficult for me. At least I always know exactly what I don 't like. Only the many colors... yes, they do not make it easy for me.

Which is actually your absolute favorite yarn? Will you tell me one? Or two? Or even three?

Jule from Hey Mama Wolf has long been working on her new project and needle bags. You can now find them in her Etsy store. Of course, these products are also dyed with self-collected plants or GOTS certified plant extracts. You can read about Jules philosophy and her dyeing processes in detail in her interview that was posted here on the blog some time ago.

I've already told you a few times about my current love for the two-color brioche. Susan has just knitted the Askew me Shawl by Stephen West and tells you a little more about it.

I've been asked for a tutorial for the so-called "Garter Tab Cast On" quite a few times. It's about starting a cloth from the top center. Here you can find a well illustrated tutorial.

Super nice I find the Lace pattern on the edge to this cloth! I'm not really a Lace knitter and actually like it on myself not too holey. But in combination with garter stitch stripes knitted I also like many, many holes well!

Have a great weekend!
