A treat for you, a new collection and a small update ☕
Introducing the Lounge Collection.
Dear knitter,
I dreamt of a space where knitting could follow the rhythm of our lives, not the pressure of a deadline. That's how I conceived the Lounge Collection: a series of designs based on absolute simplicity, to be released slowly, when the time feels right.
The first pattern is the Lounge Hat, and it will be FREE: it's my gift to you to start this journey together.
I designed two versions to knit it, and this small shop update is designed to prepare your needles for both:
1. The Luxury Version (Coming Next Week)
The first release is a cloud of softness. I knitted this version in my Baby Alpaca & Merino DK to enhance its clean lines. I added some "Muted Gems" to the shop: single 100g skeins, unique pieces in earthy, dusty tones. One skein is all you need to be ready for next week's launch.
2. The Color-Play Version (Coming in a few weeks)
Later, I will release a second version dedicated to exploring the possibilities of color through stripes and gradients.
To help you choose your palette, I've added some special sets to the shop:
Be My Valentine (Restock): The botanical pinks and mauves you loved so much are back in store!
Pigment Studies (Special Edition): A new limited set of 5 mini-skeins. These are the shades that didn't make it into the Painter's Palette: raw, dusty, and deeply artistic colors.
Vogue Duo (Special Edition): Created exclusively for last summer's Vogue Knitting Live digital event, this high-contrast duo is finally available in my shop.
This is a small, curated update, and many pieces are unique. I invite you to browse calmly and find the colors that resonate with your quiet moments.
Thank you for being here and for spending some time with me.
I wish you a peaceful Sunday,
Valentina-SnailYarn
