Pompom Quarterly Issue 15
£9.50
Issue 15: Winter 2015
Time to feast your eyes on our glam-tastic winter edition - all inspired by the Art Deco and Art Nouveau stylings of iconic 1960s-70s British brand, Boba. We have ten modern knits designed through the lens of the Biba aesthetic, which in turn was inspired by even earlier periods. We shot part of this issue in a 1920s style cocktail bar in London and in the spirit of reviving vintage trends (as Biba itself did in the 1960s and 1970s) our winter recipes are new takes on classic cocktails, adding a little extra seasonal spice and sparkle.
Featuring designs by: Bristol Ivy, Olga Buraya-Kefelian, Cirilia Rose, Rachel Coopey, Courtney Spainhower, Kiyomi Burgin, Jemima Bicknell, Sophie Scott, Amu Van De Laar, Clare Lakewood.
We are particularly smitten with Katie Green's Bowerbird comic, which beautifully illustrates the unending potential and dreams we have for newly acquired yarn. In addition to lovely illustrations, we have some excellent writing for you this issue, with articles on Activist Embroidery by Francesca Baldry, Lora Angelova's explorations as a Heritage Chemist, and Anna Maltz shares her ideas on beating the winter blues. So get a head start on beating those blues and join us in embracing the glamorous side of winter knitting with this line up of woolly lovelies.

Jane Crowfoot Mystical Lanterns Scarf
£6.95
TThe name of a repeated tessellating design, like the one I have used in this design, is called an 'Ogee' pattern in Arabesque design. It took me a few weeks to get the design of these blocks right; initially I came up with lots of really complicated ways to create this motif, but in the end it was so simple - funny how sometimes a design process can take so long and then the outcome can be so easy to make!
The pattern for the lantern shape motif is based on a granny hexagon pattern, but I have made a few changes to come up with the curved design the tessellates.
Finished blocked measurement: Approximately 22.5cm (9in) at widest point, 174cm (68 1/2in) long to end of central strip of motif - add extra length with optional fringe.

West Yorkshire Spinners Winwick Mum Seasons
£10.50
Winwick Mum Seasons - Christine Perry
Our new collaboration with Winwick Mum captures her seasonal memories in four special Signature 4ply sock designs.
Let's begin with Spring; where new life emerges, leaves unfurl and primroses dot the hedgerows. Next comes Summer filled with the scent of magnificent flowers, buzzing bees and the bright afternoon sun. Then Autumn - early morning mist burns away to reveal spectacular colours. The red, brown and yellow leaves fall and crunch beneath your feet. Finally, Winter with its feathery, frosty patterns, sparkling stars, icy air and warm wool socks next to a crackling log fire.
We are all connected and inspired by these magical seasons, from the things we see, to the things we do, and the things we create.

West Yorkshire Spinners The Croft Shetland Double Knitting Collection One
£13.50
The Croft Shetland Double Knitting Collection One - Sarah Hatton and Rosee Woodland
Due to the overwhelming popularity of The Croft, West Yorkshire Spinners' much-loved100% Shetland wool range is now available in DK weight.
Designed by Sarah Hatton and Rosee Woodland, this collection of women's and men's knitwear features modern colourwork, graphic textures and interesting cables; perfect for layering through the ever-changing seasons.
From Sarah Hatton. The introduction of a DK weight in The Croft range was a wonderful opportunity to work with this beautiful yarn. I was lucky enough to work alongside the talented Rosee Woodland who has made great use of the colour range with some stunning colourwork designs. The yarn shows texture incredibly well which allowed me to include some cables in the collection, as well as simple pieces for a relaxing knit. We have included something to appeal to knitters of all skill levels.
From Rosee Woodland. Shetland yarn has long been a favourite of mine so I was delighted to see The Croft DK join the West Yorkshire Spinners range. My designs were inspired by the rugged North Sea coastline - from the coils of thick ropes seen on the foreshore, to the prows of fishing boats and of course the wild waters themselves. Working with Sarah Hatton on this collection was also a wonderful opportunity to collaborate with an old friend, whose beautiful designs I have always admired.
