Woo hoo! It's
Yarndale this weekend, one of our favourite yarn festivals of the year- and not just because it's on our doorstep at the edge of the beautiful Yorkshire dales. This year it's even more exciting as it sees the launch of one of the most highly anticipated pattern releases of the year -
The Sinister Catdigan by
An Caitin Beag. Designer Marna writes "Not enough cats in your life? Or on your cardigan?
The Sinister Catdigan will solve that problem. Look at all those smug, judgy little faces glaring out at the world, and plotting all sorts of sinister goings-on!" She's not wrong:
Our Joelle was one the test knitters for Marna's pattern and, as you can see from the top image, she chose an eye catching combination of three shades from our
Pip yarn range: Bishopthorpe, Viking and White Rose with fantastic results. Marna liked it so much it she's listed as one of the pattern's recommended yarns on Ravelry and we're offering a special discount on our yarn to anyone buying the pattern from her. Buy the Sinister Catdigan design
here from Ravelry and you'll be sent a special code that will get you 10% off our
Pip yarn online when you enter it at the checkout.
And if, like us, you're off to
Yarndale you can buy the printed pattern direct from An Caitin Beag at stand L204....then bring it to our stand H122 and you can behold our Sinister Catdigan samples as well as getting your 10% off
Pip from us too!
