In the mood for spring? Here you can find spring yarns 
Esther Sweater Baby 
We have new Muud products in the store 
You can find all Maschenfein pattern here
Welcome to the very first Saturday coffee and net talk on our new site! What an exciting last few weeks we've had. And especially for the last few days. Every time the relaunch was within reach, a hurdle appeared. But we have met every challenge.
So here you can see the new Maschenfein, which we have already shown you bit by bit in the newsletter or on Instagram. But the good old website still remains the heart of our maschenfein world. The anchor, so to speak. And we have polished it properly and made it shine. How do you like it?
Our new site has even made it onto television. Namely in the program zipp of the RBB. Last week, a small team was Marisa's guest and was taken into the world of knitting. By the way, the Oscar for the best supporting actor goes to Sandra's felt slippers, which she sent to Berlin beforehand so that Marisa could show them. Here you can find the contribution.
The "relaxed knitter
And speaking of Oscar and glamour: At our second knitting meeting, Maschenfein was mentioned in the same breath as pop star Robbie Williams. One of the knitters said she was as excited as she had been at a meet & greet with Robbie Williams. That was a kind of accolade for Maschenfein. And a great honor on top of that. And we were at least as happy to see you as the other way around!

We're also really happy when you tell us what you've been knitting because we recommended it to you. "Now I had to try the Snefnug, too." "Of course, I also knitted a Hinata shawl." "I finally finished my Osaka." Honestly, sentences like that are music to our ears! And that's why, of course, there are designs for inspiration for you again this Saturday Coffee. So that the head cinema comes on and then the needles continue to rattle. Because as one participant put it so well, "Knitting is my yoga." So hop on the mat! We are now doing the "relaxed knitter".
The Snefnug is a must
In yoga, yes, it is important to have warm feet. And I would say that warm ears are also important. Goes great with cap No. 2 of Rosa P. We have created fresh for you in the knitting kits. In it you will find the Snefnug from CaMaRose. This will probably remain one of our favorite yarns in 2021... Although next week something else from the CaMaRose family will move in with us. Look forward to Midnatssol and many great colors!
Winter knitwear from Denmark
Who in view of the weather forecast still has the need for winter knitwear (there fall such terms as "winter onset" or - even worse - "freezing rain"): For him, of course, I also have something! At the Danish designer Mille Fryd Knitwear you will find for example theStay Hot SweaterThe boxy oversize model is knitted stockinette stitch top down. The yarn combination of Cashmere Premium and Lace from Lang Yarns can also be found in our store.

If you want to knit something for children, you will also find something at Mille Fryd: You could for example knit theKiddo SnoodYou can knit the Cashmere Premium from Lang Yarns, too. Let your child choose a color - the selection is big enough! By the way, Lang Yarns published an interview with Mille Fryd Knitwear on YouTube yesterday. In it, she talks about how she got into knitting, where she gets her inspiration from, and what knitting technique she's currently practicing. Just take a look here.
Noble collar for big
A collar for adults is available from Anne Ventzel, among others. The Cable Cowl was also a topic at one of our knitting meetings and is a noble companion for cool days. You can knit different variations, depending on the yarn weight the size of the cowl varies. As possible combinations we could imagine - as with Mille Fryd's sweater - Cashmere Premium and Lace by Lang. Duo and Tynn Silk Mohair would also be possible. You could also vary the collar. Either knit it long enough to double up, or knit it shorter and wear it as a simple stand-up collar. Both are chic!

Anyone looking for a challenge?
For those who feel more like spring, the - admittedly challenging - free tutorial of the month from SANDNES would be something. The flower jacket is a classic Steek project. In other words, you'll have to cut it open at the end. My colleague Jule (who is permanently employed with us since February and takes care of our backend! <3) said the other day that already the sound of the scissors is scary, but it's worth it.

The jacket is knitted in separate pieces: The front and back parts are knitted together (starting from the bottom) and then separately, and the sleeves are knitted separately (they are sewn in at the end). Knitting is done with the Sisu. If you don't like the nylon content, you can use the alternatives mentioned by SANDNES, such as Alpakka Silke or Tynn Merinoull. Just note the sometimes different running lengths.
Spring knit
For a few weeks I have also the SweaterCharles VNeckby Joji Locatelli "on stock" lie. Today I finally show it to you: First of all, the design is a beautiful declaration of love. The sweater is named after Joji's husband. And then it is a wonderful unisex model that suits everyone. It is the perfect everyday companion, knitted from the top down with a V-neck.
When it comes to the yarn, we've thought about something: If you want a summery version, you could double-knit Koan by Shibui or also Sparrow by Quince & Co. each. If you like it fluffy, you can knit Willet from Quince & Co. together with Premia from LAMANA.

Spring fever also comes with the shortened sweater Trascao . This design is also knitted in rounds top down. For the yarn, we suggest Cotton Cashmere from Rowan - or "cotton kisses cashmere and there's a happy ending". Julia Roberts and Richard Gere, so to speak. Choose for yourself which of the two may play cashmere 😉 By the way, the pattern for the sweater are also available in German.
As the last design for today I found these cute dungarees for little robbers. You knit from the bottom up, the legs first individually and then the torso in rounds. As yarn is given the Sunday of SANDNES. Here, too, the color palette is really big and the yarn itself is pleasantly soft.
Fresh in the store
In the store you will also find other new knitting kits, such as the shopper Sher by Pascuali (the booklet for the new collection can be found here), the hat by Minuk or our new addition to the accessories: the sock ruler by Lovafur. Take your time to browse through them!
Maschenfein knitting round
Of course, as always, you can also browse super on Instagram! In our #maschenfeinstrickrunde you can see what the other knitting crazy so on the needles or just finished.
At Claudia, for example, you can see this mad sweater. Actually intended for Christmas 2020, he is "only" finished in January. But not at all bad - we also celebrate Christmas in 2021. Sigrid finished a Kolding (with the yarn alternative Premium Cashmere by Regia) and probably wears it while reading, it's so cozy.
Anja knits the - I think it was last week - featured Ribbed Jumper by Anne Ventzel. Phew, maybe I need one for next winter, too. And at Christin 's you can see a real classic. The Hinata scarf! A must have!
And now we hope you enjoy browsing through the site. Tell us how you like it and also if you notice a mistake or something is missing. Have a nice weekend and have fun looking and knitting!
